About 200 friends, alumni, faculty and staff of San Joaquin College of Law played and picnicked in the park on May 11th as part of the Law School’s year-long 50th Anniversary Celebration. There was fierce competition in the cake walk and corn hole contests, hilarious courtroom shoots, and a kids area with everything from bowling and bocce to face painting and balloon headgear.
SJCL would like to thank the Alumni Association for entertaining the little ones, along with the Clovis Kiwanis for cooking and serving up the food. In addition, the Law School is extremely grateful to the many donations from the various “Friends of the 50th” who made sure everything else was covered!
