Heavy hors d'oeuvres featuring a lavish dessert table and coffee bar. We will also have 2 Full-Service Bars (cash/credit/debit cards accepted)
7:30 PM-9:30 PM
RP Studios will be on hand to take individual or group photos as well as a roaming photographer that will take candid photos during the reunion. All photos taken at the reunion will be uploaded to a website and you will have the opportunity to download as many digital files you want for free! You can also order prints from the photographer,
but you will have to pay for those yourself.
8:30 PM-11 PM
Dancing and Socializing • Music provided by 80s alum DJ Frankie Cruz
Join us in Mike Smith’s Memorial Locker Room, a conversation area for those who prefer a
less lively atmosphere featuring memorabilia from Mike Smith and Tom McGhee, scrapbooks honoring alumni and faculty who are no longer with us, and yearbooks from all decades. RP Studios will also
be in that room taking individual and group photos.
Because alcohol will be served, no one under the age of 21 will be allowed to attend
the reunion or Decade Parties. If you bring children, please bring a trusted caregiver to watch them while you participate in reunion activities. We will not provide babysitting services.
