The big 50th anniversary bash is now history, and what an event it was! The sun shined on us throughout the weekend, with blue skies and warm temperatures complimenting the Fall colors on the trees. We started with a nice golf outing at Wilkshire Hills on Friday afternoon. That evening many classmates and friends gathered downtown for First Friday, and dinner at Canton’s finest – Bender’s Tavern. It was a great way to start the celebration!
Then Saturday morning, many of us gathered at the Glenwood school building for a tour of our alma mater. It was quite an adventure being able to roam the halls and rekindle memories of days gone by!
Saturday evening was the signature event of the weekend – the reunion dinner at the North Canton Eagles. We had nearly 80 classmates and another 30 spouses, guests and friends in attendance. It was four hours of non-stop visiting and catching-up on all the years ! We had a wonderful buffet dinner, a slide show of all the senior pictures and memorable events of 1974, trivia, and enough program to keep it fun.
Thanks to all who made our 50th such a grand occasion. Let’s look forward to a 70 th birthday gathering in 2026, and a 55th anniversary celebration in 2029!
