Dubuque and Chicago Outflys 2011

What could have been the hottest day ever to celebrate an Outfly turned out to be entirely tolerable! Dubuque's Outfly fell on a day that was 115 degrees with the heat index! Fortunately, the park was located on a bluff with lots of shade trees. The breeze was also a huge help! Jordan Hodge '12 shared with alumni about her experiences in Denver, Colorado where she participated in both a service trip as well as Wartburg West. She also told about her involvement in the Triathlon Club at Wartburg which she helped start.
Chicago's Outfly was a good time, also. Stories were shared about a marriage proposal made on campus and how the Class of '95 got to be so close, as well as life experiences post-Wartburg including one alum's story of helping to start the first Christian college in Palestine. Lauren Hills '12 shared some of her Wartburg experiences thus far which included doing research, a service trip to South Dakota, and participating in Feed My Starving Children. In fact, Wartburg Alumni in the Chicago area are planning on participating in a Feed My Starving Children event in the Windy City! The idea of service continues to inspire Wartburg alums into action!
