WHS 40th Anniversary Reunion: We want EVERYONE there! 🥂🎓

We’ve been listening to our alumni community, and we know that with the current "cost of living" squeeze, the original ticket price for the Goldie dinner was a bit of a hurdle.

We want our 40th Anniversary to be a true reflection of the last four decades—which means we need you there, whether you were Class of ’86 or Class of ’16 or anything in between or after.

To make that happen, we’ve made the call to reduce the Reunion Weekend price from $110 down to $75! This ticket will include a more casual platter style meal with our great MC's Mr. Bob Upchurch and Sophie Schwass (nee Sophie Denny, Class of 1996), DJ Alicia (Lawrie Paul) and the bar will be open for purchases.

Wait—already bought your ticket? Don’t worry, we haven't forgotten our early birds! We are proactively refunding the difference to everyone who has already registered. Keep an eye on your inbox for the details. 💌

Let’s make this a weekend to remember. Spread the word, tag your old school mates!
