Class of 1978 40th Reunion
|
|
Details:

Dear Fellow Class of '78 Alum!
It's hard to grasp 40 years is coming up since we all gathered on the 50 yard line to receive the prize we had just spent 12+ years toiling for. While we all know it’s coming, it still seems too soon.... The past 40 years have gone by at warp speed. Each of us on the reunion committee have been meeting for the past several months and we seem to echo the same shock and dismay that we are here at this point....NOT wanting to believe it, but here it is!
As we look over our shoulders at the past”40”, we all have the same response, “What a wild ride!!!”
We keep hearing the same sentiment from all our class mates we reach out to, we're all trying to slow down a bit, stop blinking so much and trying to take in all that comes along these days...not just because we don't/can't move faster than a snail’s pace, but because we're all older and truthfully, wiser having weathered the storms of life, climbed a few mountains and learned how to survive. I think all of us in the class of '78 realized more of what we've missed then we care or dare to say. Each one of us are feeling the accomplishment that we have indeed become out parents!...lol...just kidding! That we've all left a legacy of love.
SO, on the events of our grand celebration, We plan on starting off on Friday evening,
June 15th 2018 at 6pm. We will start with a meet & re-acquaint cocktail party hosted by Scott (Whitey) and Bonnie Kamphuis at Kamphuis Blueberry farm. Bring a dish to pass (casual) food, but the main dish (meat) will be provided. For insurance and such, this is a BYOB gathering! BRING YOUR MUSIC for the fun. Shenanigans and merry making will not only be expected, but encouraged!
On Saturday Morning, June 16th 2018, we will have a golf scrabble at Winding Creek Golf for those interested.
June 16th 2018 Saturday evening, we are being hosted at Dutch Village Pavilion, full (cash) bar and WOW what a spread of catered delicacies we all grew up on and still love to this day! Dancing to music till sun up! We HOPE to have the old group of our talented players back to rock us through the night. Rocky, Jeff, Steve, Bryan, Guy, Ken and anyone who wants to join in!
We want to make special note that this reunion marks 40 years and we are all very much aware of the passing of more and more of our lifelong friends and class mates. It's rather sobering as we look back and remember our childhood. We were all invincible. We were all care free and didn't really think to far ahead to life, what would come or where we would be today. Life is short, and now more than ever, we are hauntingly aware that we are at the mercy of time.
As such, all of us on the reunion committee have taken great care in spending time remembering our class mates who have gone on before us way to soon. We know that each of us are feeling the loss of our friends and we are planning on a special memorial table....we need to remember and pay homage to our friends! If you have any input, or think we may have missed any class mate PLEASE contact us and let us know.

Here’s an update on our class reunion responses. We are getting more names every day, and everyone seems to be interested in locating fellow classmates! Please convince people to update their profiles in the reunion website. http://www.classreport.org/usa/mi/holland/wohs/1969 I am working on a slide show for our home page, as well as one to show at the reunion and need any old photos you may have that would reflect our school years. You can either email them to me, or mail them so I can scan them and send them back to you. Also, if you have any recent photo of yourself, I can put it in your profile next to your senior picture. There are a couple of senior photos we did not have, so I copied the one from our junior yearbook.

We are planning a 30 year class reunion for Aug 29, 2009. We believe this is going to be a really fun night. For the first time, we are having a live band, "Natchez Trace" They are great. Check them out at: www.natcheztrace.us. We are having a buffet style meal with beef, chicken, and all the extras. The commitee has been working really hard at keeping costs down so that everyone who wants to attend can afford it. We have even had someone who will annonomously pay for someone who wants to attend but can't afford it. We really have a great group of classmates. If that is you and you want to attend, please see my email below and this will all stay confidential. We look forward to having a very memorable night on Aug. 29, 2009. Thanks and see you in August.
