This year’s banquet will be held at the “Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Central”. The Courtyard by Marriott is located at 8651 Spectrum Center Boulevard in San Diego, approximately 9 miles northwest of SDSU (map link below). Onsite hotel parking for the event is free.
The Baylor Brooks Honored Alumni Award will be presented to Dave and Joan Kimbrough. Dave has been a professor at SDSU since 1989. Joan (Calhoun) has been with the department since about 1979 as a student and then instructional/analytical support coordinator. Joan and Dave first met…. with loving glints in their eyes…. when Dave applied for his SDSU professorship. They are awesome!
The SATURDAY evening event begins with a social hour at 6pm (no-host cash bar), then dinner at 7pm. The meal will be followed by the evening’s program which will include an overview of the department by the Interim Chair and Professor, Dr. Stephen Schellenberg.
The dinner selections include Chicken Puttanesca (chicken), or Vegetable Baked Pasta (vegetarian). More details on the next page. Please indicate your selection on the reservation form.
As a fund-raiser to partially fund students’ banquet meals and other SDSU Geology Alumni Association activities, the silent auction will be set up at the beginning of the evening and will conclude after the evening’s program. If you have any items to donate to the auction, please bring them at 6pm and/or contact Sue at s.tanges@att.net Remember to bring cash/check for your silent auction “wins”!
