55 year reunion was held this past Saturday afternoon/evening. We had 42 attendees (28 classmates). Very rainy day in Wareham but the vibe was nice and comfortable in the Redmen Hall. It was great to see everyone and to catch up on what’s happening in their lives. We have a lot of pictures to sort through and will post them as we go.
Thanks to all who helped with this event and to those who attended. And to those who could not attend, you were with us in spirit and conversation.

It's that time again. Reunion for WHS Class of 1969.

Hello classmates !

The reunion committee team (same folks from the event in 2019) met recently and will be planning a 55 year reunion event.

We're looking at the date of Saturday, September 21, 2024 at the Redmen Hall in Wareham. Save the date!

Another casual event with light fare and cocktails/drinks, rather than a formal sit down dinner. Probably a late afternoon to early evening time.

If any of you have thoughts or other ideas, let us know . We have addresses (postal and email) from the 2019 event, hopefully they haven't changed. But if anything has changed, please let us know.

You can contact :
Aldonna (Perry) LaMarche at [email protected]
or
Jay Maloney at [email protected] 508-295-7793 (home).

We'll need an estimate on how many attendees to plan for, so if you plan on attending, please reply before June 1, 2024. Time and price to follow.

Please spread the word to others you know. Not everyone is using email or Facebook, so word of mouth is always good.
We hope you'll be able to attend .. early fall is a beautiful time in New England.
