Previous Events
2007 Fall Benefit

The annual UCS benefit took place on Saturday, November 17, 2007 at the UCS campus. Dinner featured food stations by Light Bistro and dessert by Farkas Pastry Shoppe, owned by UCS alumnus Ed Kroeger. Throughout the night guests were able to bid on one-of-a-kind experiences featuring local VIPs, interact with the children and participate in classroom activities.

Alumni Picnic
June 16, 2007
On Saturday, June 16, 2007 UCS alumni from across the decades returned to their elementary school alma mater, with graduates spanning the years from 1969 to 2005. Many of the alumni reconnected with classmates they hadn't seen since they graduated from UCS. The alumni and their families were treated to Mexican cuisine, tours of the building and even a visit by the ice cream truck. The UCS gym was opened for use and plenty of backyard-style games were on hand for entertainment. The highlight of the event, however, was the archival display in the library which featured photos from the inception of school through the move to the new building including the class photos from each year.
