On The<br />
Road<br />
Europe<br />
October 2011 – The Class of 1954 has been at it<br />
again! <strong>Brewster</strong> classmates and friends, spouses, and<br />
guests, shipped out for a 15-day Grand European<br />
Tour with Viking River Cruises this past October.<br />
Alumni on the trip included David Carlson ’54,<br />
Jean (Douglas) Orr ’54, Larry Thurrell ’54, husband<br />
and wife Stuart Stinchfield ’54 and Jean (Clough)<br />
Stinchfield ’59, Bob Harrington ’53, and Jack<br />
Reever ’60. Joining the group from <strong>Brewster</strong>’s Alumni<br />
Office was Beth Hayes ’81.<br />
Following the Rhine, Mein, and Danube Rivers,<br />
the cruise began in Holland and traveled through<br />
Germany, Austria, Slovakia, and ended in Hungary.<br />
“The sites and sounds, and the people and places<br />
were amazing, to say nothing of the cuisine,” Hayes<br />
reported. “The most unforgettable part of the journey,<br />
however, was how much this group of alumni and<br />
friends enjoyed taking this journey together. “<br />
