Reunions
1974 & 1975 Recreation
Leadership
This was our second annual reunion
and we have rededicated ourselves
to doing it all over again next year
on the 2nd Sunday in August (which
makes the next one August 13, 2006),
at Sage's Campground in Cambridge.
Despite the rain, attendance was
great.
The following grads attended: Gerry
Currie, Glenda Boughner, Ron Sage,
Jane (Querin) Curtis, Toby Goodwin,
Eleanor (Bibbey) Mille, Lorie
(Seymour) Wild, Judy (Bannon)
Buck, Brian Wilson, Bert (Liz)
Callaghan, Bob Ballantyne and Denis
Kuhl. Spouses attended as well,
much to the delight of the group.
We enjoyed a lovely day, the rain
for the most part held off. The
reunion was held in the covered
pavilion area of the campground
and much to our surprise, no more
"port a potties". Ron Sage had
recently installed two “real”
bathrooms, with running water and
toilets that flushed! So we were a
happy crew! Toby brought a year
book, so we all reviewed this and
laughed, lots of talking and eating
and had a few rounds of Bocci ball.
Thanks to Jane and Ed Curtis, our
photographers.

Alumni News and Views
These three couples were together
in college, all from the class of '75.
Eleanor and Brian Mille celebrated
their 30th anniversary last year. Lorie
and Bob Wild and Brian and Cathy
Wilson each celebrate 30 years this
year. A fitting celebration for the
class of '75's 30th year reunion.
1987 Business Administration
– Management Studies
The reunion was on August 27th at
one of the grads' farm in Acton. We
had about 10 families (approx 35
people) in attendance. Though it
was a rainy day, the children still
had fun getting to know each other
as the parents allowed them to play
soccer, tag and swim. Thanks to the
mothers who brought changes of
clothes so the kids were warmed!!!.
We had a camp fire later that night,
once things dried up a bit, roasting
marshmallows and hot dogs, and
continued with our story telling. It
was a potluck dinner affair and we
had enough food to feed twice as
many families.
Everyone had a good time
reminiscing about our college years
plus getting caught up on all our
current lives, jobs, children and the
families extracurricular activities.
1985 Nursing – Doon
On September 24, 2005, the Nursing
class of 1985 held a successful
reunion at the Black Shop Restaurant
in Cambridge. There were 29
people in attendance and we hope
to get together again in five years.
