Greetings classmates,
Our 50th Year Reunion, from July 15-16, 2011, was the biggest, most exciting one yet. We visited with classmates, played golf, toured Ashland Then and Now, and participated in Bay Days. For more details, visit the Reunion tab.
Now, we are preparing for our 70th birthday reunion in 2013. See you then!

During the dinner on Friday night, our deceased classmates were honored and Dick Weix played Taps and made his traditional reunion speech. Classmates received a purple and gold class shirt, a booklet with whereabouts of each classmate, the class photo above, and a reunion coaster designed by Jeff Belany.
On Saturday we played golf, toured Ashland Then and Now and picnicked at Prentice Park.
It was a weekend to remember.
