PAAC 20th Anniversary Celebration - Thank you!

Thank you to all for making this celebration an incredible event. Words cannot even begin to express how grateful I am to all the inspirational speakers (Al Bito - founder of PAAC, Nad Permaul - former CAA President, Anatalio Ubalde - keynote), entertainers (LPG - practically had the whole crowd floored, PCN - reminded us all of our performing days in Zellerbach), the MC (Liz thanks for keeping the whole room captivated all night), all the former PAAC presidents who paved the way, Virg (thanks for selling the most tickets), the event committee (Norina especially for the great program and decorations, Kim, Fred, Charity, Lloyd, Jesse, and Virg), and the student volunteers (the event would not have run so smoothly w/o your help).

Also, thank you all who generously donated money towards Senior Weekend. The alumni/student interaction can still continue -- on Sat., Apr 21 from 9am-12pm, PASS is hosting a brunch w/ prospective Cal students before Cal Day festivities. Check the PAAC website and the PASS website (http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~pass) for more details.

Whether you were or were not able to attend, we would like to hear feedback about the event and other PAAC events. Please fill out our survey at: http://www.zoomerang.com/survey.zgi?p=WEB226CJ82AZ78. The survey takes only 5-10 minutes and a random survey participant (who submits their email, of course) will be selected to receive a prize (a personalized gift commemorating the PAAC 20th Anniversary event).

Also, please send pictures (actual jpgs, not photo album links) from the event to johanna@paac.com so that we can add them to the PAAC album.

One more thing...please look forward to more great events from PAAC. We will be hosting our 2nd annual Cal Football Tailgate party on Nov. 10th for the Cal vs USC game in the Optometry/Kleeberger Parking Lot just outside Memorial Stadium.

Have a great day and Go Bears!
