From Deb Dalton (Parent Communication Liaison PAO):
MARCH BACK – Aug. 8, 2011 – The Class of 2015 will march back to West Point on MONDAY, August 8. The class will be accompanied members of the Long Gray Line ranging from the Class of 1945 to the Class of 2010. Included in that group are 78 family members of the Class of 2015 who are West Point graduates. The Directorate of Academy Advancement invites West Point graduates to participate in the march annually. A GREAT day for the Long Gray Line, the Class of 2015 and their families!
The cadets will enter West Point via Washington Gate and proceed down Washington Road arriving on the apron in front of Washington Hall between Noon and 12:30 p.m. Good places to park are in K Lot, just north of the West Point Cemetery, the Catholic Chapel lot and in the vicinity of Eisenhower Hall. It is a work day, so many of the parking areas will be filled w/West Point employees. Parents, family members and friends are welcome to attend. Please remember you will not have any contact with your new cadet, but your support is certainly appreciated! Many will make signs congratulating their son/daughter on their completion of Cadet Basic Training; a true accomplishment and a very proud one at that!
