About the Chapter

The Central PA Alumni Chapter consists of alumni, parents and friends of Lafayette College in Central PA with most activities centering in the Harrisburg area. The chapter has a diverse calendar of events featuring speakers from the College, an annual golf outing as well as other family events. Each year, the chapter supports Lafayette students by donating $500 to a worthy student organization. In addition, they present a gift certificate to an incoming student each year at their annual welcoming reception.

If you are interested in participating on the executive committee of the chapter, please contact Ed Baumgardner '61.
