Born and raised Houstonian. c/o 2010. I will be moving up to Philly for grad school (Bryn Mawr) in the fall and will not know a soul up there. I would like to make a couple contacts beforehand if at all possible.

So, is anybody located in or around the Philadelphia area? Or does anyone know someone else who does? Is there an active Philly A&M Club?

Thanks in advance.

I live in NJ about 5 minutes from Philly. There is a large Delaware Valley A&M club that meets for game watches and stuff. There is also a Philly Aggie facebook page. Feel free to email me with any questions.

Howdy, I live in that specific area. I was in an apartment in Bryn Mawr until a few weeks ago while waiting for our house to close. We're now in the next community over in Havertown

I'm class of '97 also from Houston, (pring/Woodlands specifically. Shoot me a line, I'd love to help you however I can.

Are you heading to Villanova or Rosemount?

not philly but, in 2 weeks i will be in the north hills in pitt

Hey guys, thanks so much for the information!

To answer the above question, I'll actually be at Bryn Mawr College for graduate school in Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology. My goal is (eventually) to teach Classical languages, cultures, histories, and archaeology at the university level. My research will, however, be almost exclusively limited to archaeological matters. I have been offered a full stipend, with additional summer funds for overseas travel to help me pay for costs associated with fieldwork.

Anyways, it would sure be nice to know a couple people up there until I get my feet firmly on the ground, even if it's just to watch an Aggie game together every once in awhile.

Thanks again for the help, and I will be dropping some of you an email in the upcoming days.

I'm up in Willow Grove

I'll be in Warrendale just outside Pittsburgh this june for the summer. Any of you Ags know the Pitt area well?

I live in Pittsburgh! Please please feel free to give me a call. We have a good group of Aggies here and we get together every so often for drinks and shenanigans.

Please shoot me an email at dagwh08p at g mail com when you get to Pittsburgh. I'll do my best to make your stay enjoyable. I will be studying for the Bar Exam, so I may need some distractions.

Anybody in pottsville/schuylkill county?

talon, where do you guys get together at? i'm in mccandless

hey surf, shoot me an email, I'm trying to get us together this week. When are you free?

bigruss,

My wife and I have a second property in Schuylkill County, not too far from Pottsville (maybe 15 miles). Are you familiar with Tuscarora State Park and the White Birch golf course? We are just west of both.

We are primarily in NYC and spend as much time as we can out there. We love it. Really pretty area (with a few ugly patches, namely due to coal mining). Where are you located?

i wish i could own a second property outside of philly or in the delaware valley. It's an awesome place

Just moved to Canonsburg...will have to grab a brew or two with some of you fellow Ags soon

Well, I just put down the deposit on an apartment on the Main Line in Wayne, PA, outside of Philadelphia. I hope to meet some of you guys beginning in the fall!

NY Ag,

I am familiar with Tuscarora. I've never been to it, but I go to Locust Lake pretty regularly. I played White Birch once, and Mountain Valley a couple of times.

I moved to PA 3 years ago, and in that time I've spent a year in Pottsville, a year in Hometown, and now a year in Ashland. The area is absolutely beautiful (just block out early winter and early spring) but coal mining has definitely taken its toll. That area between 209 and 81 between Pottsville and Tamaqua is probably the prettiest part of Schuylkill County, the only possible exception being the Tri-Valley area. If you’re ever in the area and need a hand with anything or need help pulling the Ags through a game let me know.
