Peking University Alumni Association in the Greater Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area (PUAA-DC) organized a Summer Pool Party at Montgomery Square-Copenhaver Swim Club together with Nanjing University Alumni Association of Washington DC (NUAA-DC) and China Society on August 5th. About 100 people from the three organizations (about 60 from PUAA) participated the party.

Water lovers enjoyed free swimming with delightful music, while others gathered at pool side for BBQ food and drinks, fun card and poker games, and other interesting activities.

The PUAA-DC hosted a Ping Pong mini tournaments, swim competition, volleyball and basket ball matches against our opponents from NUAA-DC and China Society. The Ping Pong tournament was a great success, with 14 players playing 4 rounds. The Champion is PUAA-DC Yirui Mu and the second place is father of a Beida alumnus Mr. Gong. Unfortunately PUAA-DC 4x50M relay team lost to NUAA-DC. But the next generation of PUAA-DC, Leo Wang won the butterfly 25M race against NUAA-DC’s swim captain. Congratulations to both Yirui and Leo! The people had a wonderful evening in the mid summer breezes.

This party is just the beginning. PUAA-DC will sponsor more activities together with other organizations for our alumni and community.
