Celebrating the class years of 1947, '57, '67, '82, '97, and 2002.

Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the University of Winnipeg's Charter Day with the largest Class Reunion Dinner we've ever held. Share old memories and create new ones with alumni from over six decades at the Hotel Fort Garry this September 15!

Have you ever wanted to return to the University and see your past professors again? Meet Lloyd Axworthy and discuss his vision for the future of the University of Winnipeg? Or maybe you'd just like to share in an unforgettable, fun-filled evening with friends? This Dinner promises to be all these things and more.

With musical performances by alumni Fred Penner, Gary Grosvenor, Janice Finlay and more, you will be able to relive memories from throughout the University's history. Alumni and distinguished guests Dr. Lloyd Axworthy and Dr. Gerald Bedford will share their thoughts on the past and future of the University. Our MC for the evening, alumnus and former Mayor Susan Thompson, will keep you entertained throughout the evening.
