Update: Class of 1979 30th Reunion

Here is the latest news on the 30th Reunion of the class of 1979. It was taken from their web site. I like the idea of a tour of RHS, especially if you haven't been back in the last 30 years or so to see if they have changed the combination of your locker. The improvements to the building and the addition of new Science facilities are all pretty amazing.

1. Friday Afternoon Tour of Ridgewood HS
(June 5th)

Kick off reunion weekend at 5 pm on Friday at the RHS Student Center. Tour the school with your classmates and Student Ambassadors. This is a great chance to see all the changes at RHS as well as reminisce about the previous century. Park and enter at the Little Theater entrance off Ridgewood Ave.
2.Friday Evening at the Elk’s Club in Ridgewood
(June 5th)

Beginning at 8:00pm till 1:00am there will be festivities at the Elk’s Club, 111 Maple Ave. This gathering will feature live music provided by many of our classmates who are still “rockin” after all these years! This was a highlight of our 25th weekend. Cost is $10.00 at the door. All are welcome!
3. Saturday Golf Outing
(June 6th)

We have organized a Golf Outing on Saturday at the Crystal Springs Resort (Great Gorge Country Club about a 45 minute drive from Ridgewood). Tee times will begin at 9:30am and we should be done by 2:30pm. Register for golf here. Cost is $113.00 which includes green fees, cart, and box lunch.

4.Saturday Night 30th Reunion Dinner
(June 6th)

At 7:00pm our Official Reunion Dinner celebration will commence at the Banquet Room of the Brick House restaurant, 179 Godwin Ave., Wyckoff. We have the banquet room till 11:00pm (They also have a bar that is open till 1:00am!). The cost for the evening is $99.00 per person and includes hors d’oeuvres, dinner, and an open bar.

5. Slide Show for Saturday night!

We are in the process of putting together a "slide show" that will be played throughout the Reunion dinner and would like you to share some of your favorite pictures from your high school daze. To have your pictures be part of this slide show, simply scan you photo’s and email them to cjdittrick-kg3f@post.me.com.
6. Lodging

We have reserved a "block" of rooms at the Doubletree Hotel in Mahwah, NJ for $109.00 per night for both Friday and Saturday night (either night or both). This rate also includes free round trip shuttle to and from the Brick House Restaurant on Saturday night. Their phone number is 201-529-5880, and their website is www.mahwah.doubletree.com. Just mention that you are with the "Ridgewood High School Class of 1979" to get the rate.
7. Getting the word out!

The reunion committee has tracked down as many of our classmates as we could find (email addresses, Facebook, MySpace, RHS website, you name it!). Please help us find some of the remaining missing classmates by viewing the attachment to this email and scanning it to see if there is someone whose email address you know. We would appreciate it if you could forward this email to them as well as providing our "email address guru" Dave Granata at d.granata@comcast.net with their email address so they will get any updates. Dave has painstakingly gathered and organized as many email addresses as we could collectively find and we appreciate your help in spreading the word. You can also direct them to the official RHS alum website, where updates and links are posted. www.alumniclass.com/ridgewoodhsnj
