2016: A Year in Review

Penn State Football Viewing Parties
Here's just a sneak peek at some pictures from our 2016 viewing parties. We were lucky that so many of you came out to join us at Filger's East End. It was a blast rooting on our Nittany Lions here in Rochester with local alumni coming out to support. We look forward to continuing our viewing parties in 2017. Stay tuned for updates on where and when viewing parties will be located in our Upcoming Events section!

Penn State Freshmen Send-off/Alumni Picnic
In August, we celebrated the freshmen that became a part of the Penn State family in 2016. Current student and alumni also joined to show freshmen how important the Penn State community is and how much support they have right here at home. The event was hosted at Ellison Park and games, food and fun were the spotlight of the day. Want to see more pictures? Check out our Facebook page! |

Penn State Alumni Leadership Conference
Every year, Penn State hosts a conference for alumni to come together with chapters across the country to learn how to improve volunteer engagement, as well as personal development. Several members of the PSAA: ROC board joined the conference to learn tools and tips. We were honored to join and hope to use this information to add even more to our local chapter! |
Penn State Annual THON Fundraising Dinner
We have been lucky enough to be involved with a locally sponsored THON fundraising dinner. Benucci's Italian Restaurant has hosted annual dinners each January for the past several years. As many of you know, canners have made stops in the Rochester area before and it is a mission of our chapter to continually support the largest student run philanthropy in the world and to one day dance for a cure! |

Penn State Alumni Happy Hours
Work hard, play hard! In 2016 we had several happy hours around Monroe County to give our local alumni a chance to come out, network and talk PSU! These low-key events give the chapter a chance to reconnect outside of football season and spend some time with new and old friends. Stay tuned for 2017 happy hours! |
Thank you to all of our members who came out and supported Penn State events, both in Happy Valley and here at home. We can't wait for another great year!
