Paris High Class of ‘74 50th Reunion 9.21.24

09/16/2024

Hello, PHS'74 classmates!
Our 50th anniversary reunion is almost here! And several folks have said they regret that they can't attend - in person.

We're pleased to let everyone know that live Zoom virtual meetings are available for some of the weekend's activities. If you are unable to attend in person, click on the desired link(s) below to join with other remote and in-person attendees at the live event. We look forward to catching up with everyone!

If you are interested but aren't familiar with Zoom, other family members or friends may be a good resource for you. Or email Lori (Lorena Gribble) Charbonneau at [email protected] ahead of the event for assistance in getting ready to participate (a day or two ahead would be good).

On the other hand, if you are attending and are familiar with Zoom, feel free to bring your electronic device to an in-person reunion event. You can join at the links below to provide another point of view from the event for our virtual attendees. Or go rogue and create your own Zoom meeting, then send out your own invitations and host your own Zoom experience from the reunion.

Note: The links below will be live-stream only. No recording or later posting of the event will occur for these links. Starting times are approximate (Log in early or right on time, then just hang out and the Zoom meeting will start soon). Each meeting will last 40 minutes (limitation of the free level of Zoom membership)!

Hope to see you at the reunion, either in person or virtual!

Good Morning Classmates!

Can you believe it's been 50 years since we walked the halls of Paris High? Time has flown by, but the memories we created together are as strong as ever. As we approach this special milestone, we want to invite each and every one of you to join us for our 50th class reunion.

Whether you graduated with us or not, you are part of our story. We all grew up together, and that connection is something we want to celebrate. This reunion is a chance to reconnect, reminisce, and make new memories with old friends. It won't be the same without you, so we truly hope you can attend.

We understand that life can bring its own set of challenges, and not everyone may be in a position to afford the cost of attending. We're proud to say that some of our generous classmates have sent in extra contributions to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to be there. If you need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me privately via PM or email, and we’ll make sure everything is taken care of.

Let's come together once more and honor the bonds we've shared over the years. We can't wait to see you all and celebrate the Paris High Wildcats Class of 1974!

Loyal and True!
