Sunday Brunch

Our Sunday Brunch at the Levi Heywood Memorial Library on West Lynde Street in Gardner provided additional time for meeting and greeting former classmates. Some classmates toured the library facility, including the local history room, while other classmates mingled or sat in small groups or pairs, examining posters and class photo albums. The library tour was conducted by Holy Rosary School classmate Ronald Cormier.

The Friday Night Social and the Reunion Dinner events bustled with activity, laughter, and noise. The conversations on Sunday were more personal, focused, and reflective. Classmates put their heads together to identify classmates in our elementary or junior high school photo albums.

Just for the record: 43% of GHS Class of 1960 classmates live in the greater Gardner area. An additional 14% live in other Massachusetts communities. The remaining 43% live in other states, including Alaska and Hawaii, with Florida having the wildcat's share. 115 classmates registered for our 50th Reunion. This represents 56% of our class. Gardner area classmates accounted for 32% of the overall attendance.
