2 More Successful Events - The Kansas City and Omaha Outflys!

What a joy to meet with alumni at the Kansas City and Omaha Outflys this week.  The best part about Wartburg is our students, who turn into great alumni.  Not only did we have attendees from 7 different decades, but people came from literally around the world.  Alum Melissa Lackore Rager ‘08 had just returned from a deployment to entertain the troops in Afghanistan and the Middle East by singing in a rock group.  She brought 3 of her team members along to show them the spirit of Wartburg.  Some of my favorite things to do is to connect alumni who are both in the same industry or to introduce someone new to the area to another alum who already knows everyone there.   It’s a small world at Outflys as I even met my brother’s high school swing show partner.  Alumni should come to the next Outfly in their area.  You never know who you might meet!
