Thank you to the 250 classmates and guests who traveled across the globe for a magical weekend in Madison. One-third of living alumni made the trip across oceans and down the block. We were reminded of the value of friendship and of educational excellence. We were reminded how fortunate we are to have attended West High and to be part of the Class of '75.

See you for our 55th and West's Centennial in 2030. Be well. Stay healthy.
