Cornell Graduate School Alumni Group of Utah Picnic

Today we held the first annual Cornell Graduate School Alumni Group of Utah Park City Picnic.  This was the first ever activity of this particular group.

We had some great fun with a small group.  Scott Carman of vSpring organized the event.  Donald Rands of Zions Bank, Matt Horlacher of Holland & Hart, John Clawson who recently sold his company and I (Devin Thorpe of Thorpe Capital Group) were the only alumni there.  Laurlyn Berry represented her family, which includes Brent Berry, of DWG & Associates

The event was sponsored by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, vSpring and Thorpe Capital Group.
