NPR "Says You" Live Taping & VIP Reception 04/22/12 : Dartmouth alumni and their guests met for two LIVE tapings of NPR’s “Says You!” — the game of words and whimsy, bluff and bluster. Host Richard Sher and hilarious panelists Barry Nolan, Francine Achbar, Tony Kahn, Carolyn Faye Fox, Arnie Reisman, Paula Lyons, and Philip Salkind were fast on their feet and smart on their tongues. They kept everyone guessing whether the ludicrous-sounding definitions are real or simply calculated to fool everyone! In addition to the shows, alumni and guests met in the “Green Room” for a private, Dartmouth VIP reception with the show’s cast before the first taping and between shows. If that wasn't enough, one lucky youngster of a Dartmouth alum was featured as part of the "Says You!" broadcast as an official scorekeeper!

Tequila Tasting & Mixology Class 05/01/12 : You know what makes everything better? Tequila! And no one knows that better than the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Silicon Valley. Tequila. The word alone conjures up images of legendary 19th-century estates, borderline-obsessive craftsmanship, and agave cooking in clay ovens. At least it does once a nip of Milagro finds its way into your glass. And just in time for Cinco de Mayo, DAASV members spent two-hours at a tequila mixing class at the University Club. Mixologist and spirits expert Joel Teitelbaum served each attendee a flight of three delicious tequilas, walked us through the history and uses of this potent elixir, and taught everyone to recreate the “Worlds Freshest Margarita” first hand. This was NOT a passive experience! Dartmouth alumni also learned to prepare tequila sauces, guacamole, and other appetizing botanas, after which more snacks were served as the class transitioned into a full-blown happy hour. Hey, what did we say? Tequila just makes everything better… and the DAASV ain’t bad either!

Tour of Allied Arts Guild 04/28/12 : Dartmouth alumni and guests gathered for a private docent-lead tour of one of the Peninsula’s artistic treasurers — the Allied Arts Guild, located in Menlo Park. It stands on part of what was once a vast 35,250 acre land grant dating back to the late 18th century. In 1929, wealthy art lovers Delight and Garfield Merner bought 3.5 acres of the land located at the edge of Menlo Park. Working closely with architect Gardner Dailey and artist Pedro de Lemos, they began to realize their dream of creating an arts guild in California. The Merners' goals were to provide a workplace for artists; to encourage the crafting of handsome objects for everyday use; and to support all peasant or folk art, especially that of early California.
