r a tour of the grounds. We paid homage to Thurman Munson in the Yankee Museum, toured Monument Park in center field, made a call to the bullpen from the Yankee dugout, eyed the team's indoor batting cages, got a kick out of Nick Swisher's Yankees' gnome in the team clubhouse and enjoyed a stroll through the pictured Great Hall.

On a hot and humid day in Irvington, New York, Merideth Durden Dolan '80 graciously opened her home, her grill and her pool to Davidson alumni. Alums from Pennsylvania, New York City and Connecticut, in turn, greeted Merideth with homemade goodies including a chocolate glazed, Rice Krispie Wildcat thanks to a trio of '05ers (Emily, Trey and Philip). Thank you for your hospitality, Merideth!
