As the year comes to a close, Carls come together to celebrate the season and toast the new year. Everyone is invited to join in the fun!
Winter gatherings are usually organized from December through January. This year’s gatherings are being planned by alumni and parent volunteers. As locations and dates are confirmed, they will be listed below.
Don’t see an event in your area? There’s still time to plan an informal gathering. It can be as easy as picking a date and time at one of your favorite watering holes or hosting something at your home.
