Garden Spot HS Class of 1983

01/19/2024

Hey Everyone. Hope your New Year is off to a great start! I'm writing because one of our alumni has suffered a tragic loss. Sadly Jack Kremer's 2 month old granddaughter Marley has passed away after a courageous fight to overcome several medical issues. The family has setup a gofundme to help with funeral costs and other financial issues. Any amount is appreciated. Please keep Jack and his family in your thoughts and prayers as they try get through this extremely emotional time. Thank you.

Our Mighty Marley lost her battle to Congenital Heart and Severe Chronic Lung Disease o… Cheryl Kremer needs your support for Might Marley’s Funeral Expenses

Thank you to everyone who showed up last night! I had a great time and I sure hope all of you did too! I'm not going to lie, I'm pretty damn tired today but as long as everyone had fun, than it was all worth it!

SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW!! IT'S GOING TO BE A BLAST!!

11/13/2023

Greetings Everyone,

The Reunion is NEXT SATURDAY!!! Hard to believe but it’s true. I will be contacting the caterer tomorrow to give them the final count.

The final count is:

47 Alumni confirmed attending (including me)
75 Total people, including guests.

Now many of you have offered your assistance if I needed it, well that time is now.

We are allowed to get into the Legion at 11 am that morning to setup. I plan on arriving around 11:30. I don’t have a lot of decorations, mostly stuff for the walls and one banner. With that being the case the more folks who show up the quicker we can get it all setup and then head home to get all dressed up and come back ready to party! Again “all dressed up” means just wear something decent, doesn’t have to be anything formal

One other thing I wanted to mention. Ray Harnish has graciously purchased a keg of Coors lite for the reunion. That means beer will be FREE until that keg runs out!

BIG SHOUT OUT TO RAY!!!!!!

Date: Saturday November 18th
Time: 5pm-10 pm
Location: New Holland American Legion 35 S Hoover Ave. New Holland, PA 17557

Greetings Everyone,
Happy Labor Day weekend! Hope you are all spending it with people you love (or can at least tolerate). Immediately after my last message there was a slight uptick in responses. Which has brought us to 11 alumni attending (20 people in total counting guests). To those that have responded I say: “Thank you very much”! To those who have not I say: “WHAT THE F……”, no I’m kidding 😊 I get it, everybody is busy and there’s always a lot going on so it’s easy for things to slip through the cracks. Speaking for myself I’ve noticed that the older I get that those cracks are turning into craters!! All I’m asking is if you could respond sooner rather than later, I would greatly appreciate it. I don’t want to start being annoying about it, but I will and those who know me best know that I’m REALLY good at it! Again I’m just trying to avoid the last minute responses.

A reminder to all of you is please be sure to mention the reunion to the alumni you know that are not on social media. What’s that old commercial? “I told 2 friends and they told 2 friends and so on and so on and so…” With very little effort I think we can get a great turnout.
