5. Class Commemorative Whiskey Sales
We have partnered with the USMA grad-owned and operated company SoNo1420 for award winning whiskeys in Class of 1986 decanter bottles. Glencairn glasses with our ’86 class crest are also available on our special ordering website. Sales have just begun and will continue through our 40th Reunion. SoNo1420 donates 20% of all sales proceeds to our Class.
Additionally, a commemorative 40th Reunion barrel pick is coming soon! We have a committee of classmates making this important selection soon. Arduous duty–but our committee was up to the task.
SoNo1420 will be on site at our 40th Reunion with tastings and sales in our class decanters.

Class of 1986 40th Reunion Campaign
Our $2,500,000 40th Reunion Gift supports two transformative USMA funding priorities that will directly impact cadets and the Academy for generations to come.
$1.5M of our goal supports the Cyber & Engineering Academic Center (future Goethals Hall), the first new academic building in more than a decade. This center will bring multiple engineering and cyber disciplines together under one roof and dramatically expand collaboration and study space for cadets. In recognition of our gift, our class will be permanently honored through naming of the High End Fabrication Lab in the main structure, and two Cadet Collaboration Spaces in the future Gateway Bridge that will connect the CEAC to Mahan Hall.
The other $1M portion of our gift supports the Michie Stadium Preservation Project, modernizing the historic East Stands that have long served as West Point’s front door to the nation. This brand-new structure improves accessibility and the overall experience for Cadets, families, and graduates. Our class will be recognized via an exterior arch facing Lusk Reservoir.
Our goal is full class participation, with pledges fulfilled by our 40th Reunion this November. Together, through leadership level generosity and broad participation, we can leave a legacy that honors our time at West Point and strengthens the Academy that gave us so much.
