The London, ON alumni chapter was formed in the fall of 2002. The purpose of this chapter is to hold alumni events in order to bring together local alumni, and to promote and support the advancement of StFX. The ultimate goal is get every Xaverian in the area involved with the organization and participate in alumni events.

StFX Day 2008
A hearty crew gathered at the Scots Corner Pub in London on November 29th for our Southwestern Ontario gathering. The weather finally cooperated, allowing 27 alumni, accompanied by friends of the university, to show the X spirit is alive and strong here in London. The evening opened with Andrew Knight ’06 reciting the Xaverian prayer. Gerry Lowe, our VP, said words in memory of one of our local alumni who recently passed away and will always be missed at our events, Blake “Santa” Brady, ’51. Ed McHugh, our national alumni President was on hand to deliver an informative update on the goings on back at the university. Stephanie Mills ’08, a new member of the President’s Circle of Young Alumni, was recognized and welcomed to our London Community. Fond memories were recounted of our chapter founder, Troy Stanley ’95, who recently relocated to Calgary. His hard work and dedication resulted in our recent Chapter recognition award this year. We are sure he will continue to further the “X cause” out West.
Overall, a wonderful mix of alumni and friends was on hand to celebrate StFX day and recount stories of their days at X. Our next event will be in June, gathering present students, their families and alumni for a golf tournament and barbeque.
Respectfully submitted,
Drew Smith
