The crew didn’t let the rain dampen their spirits as their team tallied a win and a loss against the Durham Bulls.

Under Brittany’s leadership and great alumni involvement, the chapter has facilitated opportunities for generations of alumni to get acquainted, network, and even connect with area churches. “It’s exciting to reconnect with local alumni,” said Brittany. “People are often surprised by how many other Cedarville graduates live nearby. These events help rekindle memories and remind everyone that our shared Cedarville experience connects us for more than just the few years on campus.” Learn more about alumni chapters and find one in your area!
