Event Details

Class of '69 Golf Outing
Idylwild Golf Course on 5 mile, east of Levan -
we have 26 golfers with our first tee time at 1:30, not 10am. We got pushed back by a very large outing taking up the entire golf course from 8am to 1pm or so. Golfers need to show up by at least 1pm so we can be real organized and ready to go. Best ball or scramble format, foursomes, & prizes! I have a proposal for teams, fun names, and order of play.
Steve Rice will meet you there outside of the pro shop.

Class of '69 Reunion Party
One Under Bar and Eats on 5 mile, same parking lot as the Idylwild Golf Course-
we have a party room with outdoor seating available also. Everyone is on their own for food and beverage. We'll have our own music, movies of past reunions and picnics, decorations and a slide show of 300 pictures of us from way, way back in time. Show up at 4:30 and golfers will come right in as they complete their round. Stay as long as you can.

Cody 50's and 60's Picnic
Edward Hines Park, Nankin Mills Site, just a few hundred feet southwest of the intersection of Farmington Rd and Ann Arbor Trail, and 1/3 of a mile southwest of the intersection of Farmington Rd and Joy Road.-
Organized by the Cody High School 50's and 60's Committee and exists because of the group of Cody High alumni volunteering their time to make this happen. We have a number of classmates that are helping out this year, and our participation is growing, for which I am very grateful.
Food, beverage,50/50 raffle tickets, and merchandise are available for purchase. Classic cars, group pictures, and entertainment are always happening there.

Class of '69 will once again have a canopy, tables and chairs set up. It's a picnic, a big party, so bring whatever you like.

This is THE weekend of the year so I will see you there.
Thanks Comets,
Louie Carpinelli

Invited Classmates

Reunion Apparel

The class of 1969 experienced history on a regular basis: The Summer of Love, the Tet Offensive, Nixon's rise to power, The Beatles' creative peak... very few spans of time can claim to have shaped American culture as much as the late 60's, and you & your Cody High School classmates experienced it together.

Now as you and your fellow Comets prepare to enjoy retirement it's the perfect time to reunite and share where life has brought you in the last five decades. Your reunion is scheduled and AlumniClass is your spot for arranging travel plans, ordering custom Comets merchandise to show off your school spirit, and connect with classmates ahead of time.
