August 14, 2008
The Colonial Downs Racetrack in New Kent, Virginia was the place
to be for St. John’s alumni and friends in the Hampton Roads and
Richmond areas on Saturday, August 2, 2008.
An intimate group of Chapter members enjoyed the races from a
private suite with closed circuit televisions and a balcony
overlooking the track. Guests also watched a race named in
honor of St. John’s University alumni with a Winner’s Circle
presentation.
Chapter members enjoyed an afternoon of food, sport and St.
John’s pride as they mingled together. “It was a friendly
group and a great day!” stated Arthur Kavit ’48P.
This is the fourth year the Chapter has sponsored this event and
it continues to elicit rave reviews. Joe Farnitano ’76NDC
said, “What another great event. I look forward to this every
year!”
