BIRTHDAY BASH ATTENDEES

If you have purchased your tickets for the Birthday Bash to be held on Saturday, October 12, 2024, from 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm at Matthew’s 1600, please know that we are excited to see you and to celebrate our seventies with the Catonsville Classes from the early 1970’s.
Instead of exchanging birthday gifts, we have decided to give back to the community that has done so much for us. The Catonsville Emergency Assistance (CEA)Truck will be on the parking lot of Matthews 1600 during the event. Please bring a cash donation or items to show your appreciation for our giving community.
The donations desperately needed by CEA include boxes of cereal, jelly, dry soups (Ramen/Nissen/Lipton), rice (small boxes or bags), baking mixes (cake/brownie/muffin/pancake), oatmeal, canned meals (Chef Boyardee/canned stew/canned chili), spaghetti sauce, pasta, and pasta/rice side dishes (Knorr/Lipton/Rice-a-Roni).
Please contact Dria Beal Trimble at driatrimble@icloud.com if you have any further questions.
We look forward to seeing you at the Birthday Bash!

Your Class of 1972 Birthday Bash Committee- Dria, Laurie, Patti, Chris, Brian & Rick.
