Bordentown Military Institute
Alumni
Association
Welcome
to the Bordentown Military Institute Alumni Association site. If you
are a former cadet, please Contact Us either by
e-mail or postal mail. We would like to add you to our directory.
Please explore our site and see the activities of our Association. Founded
in 1881, the Bordentown Military Institute operated as an independent
military school in Bordentown, New Jersey, for 91 years. In 1972, it
merged with the Lenox School in Lenox, Massachusetts. Bordentown/Lenox
was in existence for only one year, however, closing its doors completely in
June 1973. In the late
1980s, the inactive BMI Alumni Association re-formed and began scheduling
biennial reunions. Since then, the Association has grown in numbers and
scope, thanks to a dedicated alumni board and extremely valuable
volunteers. Word-of-mouth connections and the Internet have also
contributed to its resurgence, as have numerous people who have stumbled on
the Web site and have been “found.” Although the formal entity that was
once BMI has gone, its spirit is very much alive. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
Presidents Message
Greetings,
Fellow Cadets -
This
Spring our BMI statue will be power washed along with our pavers. We are
looking into getting a banner with a brief history of BMI to be placed near the
statue. For safety reasons, we are
considering the placement of a wrought iron railing on the statue steps. The entire statue area with the benches will
create a beautiful area for all of us to sit and reminisce about our BMI
days. Hope you are all in good health.
Take
care,
President JC Platt
