University of Minnesota Alumni gathered on May 5th of 2007 at Spring Creek Barbeque in Bedford, Texas. In a banquet room with a seating capacity for 90 people, we enjoyed the excellent food of Spring Creek Barbeque.

Fellowship was great. We talked about our experiences at our Alma Mater, what brought us to North Central Texas, and what we are currently doing in the area. With a good mix of people in attendance, we learned about the University of Minnesota Alumni Association, the North Texas Chapter, North Texas Chapter programs and activities, and what makes membership attractive. There were plenty of handouts, and everyone walked away with something in hand.

For those of you who were not able to attend the event, here is a summary:
