A Celebration of Scholarship

The Club is proud to award over $21,000 to area students annually, helping defray the cost of their Cornell education.  This would be impossible without the generosity of DC Cornellians like you!

Come and enjoy a cocktail hour followed by a three-course dinner with wine service from Dr. Frank's Wine (Fred Frank '79) and live music provided by the Bob Schwartz Quartet. The silent and live auctions will feature a broad range of items for bidding, including Cornell memorabilia, tickets to the Washington Capitals and Washington Wizards, musical performances at a variety of local venues, handcrafted jewelry and artwork, passes to a wide array of local restaurants and vacation stays.

Tickets: Now available for $75 and $65 for Young Alumni! Tickets are inclusive of a cocktail hour with two drink tickets and a three-course meal.

Want to get involved with making this year's event a huge success for local area Cornell students? You can advertise your business or personally sponsor the event, or donate an item to be auctioned.
