16th Annual Grove Party

Connection
They say you never forget your first love, and Rollins sweethearts Geoff ’79 and Poppy Terris ’78 Spencer couldn’t agree more. The two left their romance behind on the shores of Lake Virginia, taking different paths for 32 years but always keeping the other in the back of their mind. In 2010, Geoff connected with Poppy on Facebook, and the two were married less than a year later.

Connection
Rollins Sports Hall of Fame 2011 Inductee Gregg Smyth ’95 spent part of Reunion weekend connecting with the College’s current baseball players. Drafted by the Houston Astros in 1995, Smyth left behind Tars records for wins, strikeouts, and innings pitched, but he never forgot the way he was encouraged and mentored by his Rollins coaches. During the Lunch on the Lawn, Smyth returned the favor to current athletes.
