RADIO ROSIES
Brookfield Alderman Catherine Davis '05 Kahler and classmate Elizabeth Novacek '05 have a neat side gig going! They formed the Radio Rosies, a popular Milwaukee-area, USO-style female vocal trio that brings the music, elaborate three-part harmonies, and nostalgia of the "Greatest Generation" to life. Formed in 2013, the group captures the spirit of iconic mid-century sister acts like The Andrews Sisters, The McGuire Sisters, and The Boswell Sisters.

When Meghan Jeide '26 was preparing to move into her college dorm in Tampa, fellow alum Andrea Darling '90 De Cortes offered to have Meghan's boxes shipped to her home in Tampa, and she kept everything safe until move-in day.
But there is an even better connection: Andrea was a classmate of Meghan's mom, Susan York '91 Jeide. Although years had passed since they last connected, their BA ties reconnected them in Tampa!

TRADITIONS
From Wisconsin to Tampa, and everywhere in between, this group keeps their Packers tradition going!
Each year, Jake Dehne '95, Sydnie Dehne '23, Nick Fricano '95, Mike Martin '94, Bryan Nolasco '94, and Chris Tyson '95 pick a Packers away game and make a trip of it. This year, they headed south for the Packers vs. Buccaneers game in Tampa!
