Olde Guarde
The Olde Guarde of Their Majesties’ Royal Colledge in Virginia comprises all alumni whose identified class has celebrated its 50th Reunion. It is dedicated to cherishing and preserving the traditions of William & Mary, advocating the university's advancement and reputation among the nation’s institutions of higher learning, and supporting social, service and educational programs to enhance the lives of its members and of alma mater.
Join us in Williamsburg April 25-27, 2025, for a number of exciting events, including welcoming the 50th Reunion class into the Olde Guarde at their induction ceremony. We are also looking forward to celebrating the 55th reunion of the Class of 1970 and the 60th reunion of the Class of 1965.
Registration for the weekend opens in early 2025, but book your hotel now.
