Kelly Quad (Stony Brook University) Reunion in NYC 2019

Would you believe it's been 36 - 44 years since the last time we connected with each other and other Kelly Quad alum? Our Second Annual Stony Brook University Kelly Quad wide reunion!

Our FaceBook Group site:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/KellyQuad/.

Our Twitter is: "SBReunion"

Kelly Fest, Kelly Quad Party, Kelly E Total Building Party, Mass Exodus Party, FallFest, SunFest, I-Con, G/Tabler/and Roth Fests, etc. We are reconnecting Stony Brook University Kelly residents from 1975 - 1983 (if you're not that is okay too). During our life in Kelly, we experienced some mighty big events, made lots of friends, and had some incredible times we otherwise would not have experienced if we had not been part of the Kelly tapestry.
THE REUNION
Saturday, September 14, 2019 is our NYC based Kelly Quad Reunion Party where we expect to see a large turnout of Alumni from loyal Kelly Quad movers and shakers to reconnect, reminisce and take part in the many activities in store whether it has to do with boulder drops, funnelators, Christmas trees.. but hey, we can't disclose more details just yet so we don't get raided! The event is at a public pub so you can stay until it closes.

We'd like to connect the many friends you made at Kelly and at Stony Brook University. Please share this information and this link for the upcoming reunion, so those you are connected to from SB can relive and reconnect the heartfelt memories and stories!
