Reunion Years<br />

So it’s your Reunion Year?<br />

If you graduated in a year that ended in a nine or a four, then it’s your reunion year for your ‘big’ reunions. Most classes<br />

celebrate during the corresponding school year, while some classes shoot for a reunion each and every year. Some<br />

classes might hold their reunion into the next school year, and really there is no right way or wrong way to have a<br />

reunion. Just like each class had a unique experience at Collegiate, so go the reunions.<br />

Class Reunions Recap<br />

Classes from 1948 to 1992 spent time together for their reunions.<br />

The Class of 1978 spent their reunion weekend reminiscing and remembering their time at Collegiate. They<br />

enjoyed an evening at Churchill Downs and spent some casual downtime together. Check out the picture where<br />

they re-create their Senior picture from the inside cover of the Transcript.<br />

Here’s how to get started! The reunion planning begins with someone from the class; maybe the class president, or<br />

someone who is involved with Collegiate or the alumni program. Not sure who that person is, or should be, then you<br />

may have just volunteered yourself!<br />

Here are some proven ideas:<br />

• Start a class Facebook page and let people know about the reunion.<br />

• Plan a campus tour and a family friendly picnic or lunch at school.<br />

• Meet for dinner at a local restaurant.<br />

• Host a BBQ at your house if you are here in town.<br />

• Reserve space at a local restaurant so people can meet before heading to other holiday parties.<br />

Then make a call or email the alumni office. We are ready to facilitate…<br />
