Friday, August 12, 1:30 p.m. - A tour of good ol'...and new...Portage Northern High School, led by Principal Jim French. This is a FREE event, open to all, even if you choose not to attend any other event.  

We are hoping to add some activities during the day on Saturday, August 13. We are looking for volunteers to coordinate activities like trips to the Air Zoo, Gilmore Car Museum, Kalamazoo Institute of Art, golf outing, hike, beer tours, or other local activities or attractions. Any costs associated with these activities are on your own.
The main events:Friday, August 12, 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. - After dinner on your own, a gathering will be held at the home of Steff Rapacz Goldsberry.  This is a chance to informally reconnect with classmates. Snacks, beer, wine, soft drinks, bottled water will be provided.

The total cost for these two events is just $19.72 per person!!  That’s right, whether you attend just Friday night, just Saturday night, or both nights, you pay a total of $19.72 per person. You read correctly: Thanks to a generous donation from an anonymous classmate, we are able to offer you the opportunity to attend our 50th, and possibly last reunion, at an incredibly low cost. Details for payment, addresses and everything else will be forthcoming as this grand final reunion evolves.  But please know that reservations will close on July 1st.
