We Met, We Laughed, We Hugged, We Remembered
Our 50th Reunion was a Terrific Success!!!
Over 90 classmates gathered together the weekend of Sept. 28-30 for our
50th High School Reunion. On Friday there were two activities: the main
gathering at the Granada Theater for a buffet dinner and lots of conversation.
Additionally, our class honored at The Dalles High Homecoming Football game
that evening. On Saturday during the day classmates were invited to tour
The Dalles High School, The Dalles/Wahtonka Museum, The Discovery Center
and tour downtown. We all gathered together on the steps of the high school
for our class picture then headed out to the Country Club for a wonderful dinner
and a fun evening of revelryhosted by Phil and Jim! On Sunday morning, Wendy
led us through a meaningful Memorial Service at Sorosis Park and then we had
a last get together no-host lunch at the Clock Tower. It was a FULL weekend of
renewed friendships, old and new stories and a lot of picture taking!Speaking
of pictures - please, if you took pictures during the Reunion, post them on our
Facebook page by using this hashtag: #50dhs68.
During the dinner a Survey was passed out asking classmates their preference
as to next Reunions and giving a Class Gift to DHS. It was decided we would
like to meet for "Big Birthdays", so our next get-together with be for our 70th
Birthday in 2020....mark your calendars now!!!
