Our reunion occupied most of a weekend at the beginning of September 2022. Over 100 alumni of ICOS arrived over various days and to various accommodations. Initial informal meetings were held in the pubs, and the Public Hall, scene of our previous triumphs, was hired for Saturday for the formal event. The schedule for the day is reproduced here. In addition the society performed Ave Verum as part of Sunday worship at St Peters |
