Chaffey High School Class of 1966

08/22/2026

Hi Everyone - Bill here. I looks like we might get rain in Southern California by the time of our reunion. No worries, We've got Plan B's in place.

For the campus tour, we'll be mostly inside.
For the Chaffey Home tour, we'll do the picnic in the historic Chaffey Barn.
For the Sunday lunch, we've reserved the Chaffey Library and will hold it there instead of Sue (LeGrand) Coes home.

The attached video is for Northern California and it looks like we might get rain as soon as Sept 5th! For all of you in Southern California the maps in the videos cover that too.

Hopefully we'll get rain and not too much!

All righty then. Bill here.

Our website https://chaffey66.com is fully functional, including our mailing list functions and past newsletter page.

It's also fully protected. I increased the security on our website to hopefully keep it from happening again.

In other news, I should have the Doubletree discounts fully set up and bookable early the week of June 22nd.

We're hoping to get some more signups, so if you've been procrastinating, now is the time to sign up for the reunion!

Just an update. Our website (and some others) were infected with Malware a few days ago. As soon as I noticed it, I took it down, rebuilt it, and it's now up malware free.

If you got strange redirects the last few days when trying to visit the website, that's why.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

If anyone notices strange behavior in the future, please let me know ASAP via direct email so I can take remedial action.

Regards,
Bill Finkelstein

With great sadness I wanted to relay the news I received that Carol (Peterson) Fleming lost her 9 yr battle with cancer and passed away.

Our thoughts are with Dale and the family.

Update! It looks like we have enough interest to get a block room rate at the Doubletree. Stand by, once I take care of the paperwork I'll send out the booking link. It also includes a parking discount. The discounted rate will be $169 per night for a king or double queen room and $15.00 for parking. All prices are plus tax.

Please note that only people parking overnight who are staying in the hotel are charged for parking. It's free for our banquet attendees not at the hotel.
