Class of 1970 Announces Plans for a 50th Reunion in 2020

News from my old neighbor in Ridgewood, Judy Schoneman Beirne:

RHS Class of 1970, 45th Class Reunion is now a fond memory.... and what a wonderful memory it is!

     Fifty-five classmates gathered to laugh and recall wonderful times at Ridgewood High School and the old neighborhoods on Saturday, October 10, 2015.  The gathering at Double Tree in Mahwah, NJ was a success! About the same number of some different faces gathered at the Elks Club on Friday night for a more casual event.  Again, although damp, a success!   Alas, the tailgate was rained out, but Chuck's RHS varsity football team managed to cream Clifton (30-14)!  Besides those opportunities to meet and greet, I know small groups walked through town and met at friend's homes or familiar restaurants; a tour of George Washington (now) Middle School, a gathering of Willard friends and another for Ridge, HoHoKus friends united, several outings to The Fireplace, ice cream at VanDykes, and familiar, yet classic delis and diners were revisited. Saturday was so clear you could see the cables on the GW bridge from Crest Road as well as the new World One Tower!  Thank you to those who came out to help us celebrate!
     Even if you were not able to attend in person, you have the opportunity to see your classmates through some of the photos we captured from the weekend.  Please enjoy (and tag yourself in) the photos on our Facebook page.  Also updated, is our Shutterfly website initiated 5 years ago for our 40th reunion.  Relive the pictures from then and check out the new photos recently added. You may download pictures from the Shutterfly site and/or you can add your own!  This site also has the added feature of a conversation page.  Let's start a dialog of what you would like to see at our 50th and what you enjoyed about the 45th. Or start your own conversation and let's keep it going!  Stay well so that we can do this again in 5 years!

SAVE THE DATE: 10/10 in 2020 for our 50th Reunion!
