MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
“Being a member of the Virginia Club of New York has deepened my connection to the UVA community and made me even more proud to be a Wahoo. Meeting Hoos from every generation, all connected by our shared love for UVA and now New York City, has made such a big city feel more like home.”
“The holiday party is one of my favorite club events, and I look forward to it every year. Each one starts with catching up with old friends, then ends with dancing, singing the Good Old Song, and the inevitable after-party at Stout. There’s something special about celebrating the holiday season with some of my favorite people.”
“The club reignited my love of reading. After taking a long break from reading for pleasure, I started going to Book Club meetings—and now I’m a regular attendee! It’s become a ‘club within the club,’ bringing together a smaller group of Hoos who share a love of books, thoughtful conversations, and great company.”
“Don’t hesitate to join! The Virginia Club offers such a wide variety of events that there’s truly something for everyone. Whether you’re hoping to make new friends, reconnect with old classmates, expand your professional network, or simply have fun exploring the city with fellow Hoos, you’ll find a welcoming community.”
“Meeting Hoos from every generation… has made a big city feel like home.”
