Ray Vece - Great time at the Glenwood yesterday. Looking forward to tonight.
Michael Arnone - Thank you Lenny Goldberg for a great time at Lenny & Joe's. Much thanks to Jim Ortel and Howie Kegeles for joining me at Alling Memorial this morning for an enjoyable round of golf. And now the main event!
Also ... the committee provided us with such an awesome weekend. One I will cherish for the rest of my life. 👍👍
Dean Smith - Hi All, It's 10:00pm I just got home. I'm hyped, I've got to unwind. The Glenwood was fine. The school tour was very enjoyable. The class of '69 dinner and party were an A#1 class event. I liked the table center pieces and the "programs" were wonderful. I like many of you saw a lot of friends. My sincere THANKS TO THE REUNION COMMITTEE. Best Regards.
Chris Costanzo - Thanks for all the work the committee did organizing the 50th class reunion. I had a great time.
Jim Greenfield - Wonderful job guys. Great to see everyone. Should have made the name tags bigger! We’re old people. Thanks again.
Eydie Hahn Cutler - The class of 1969 celebrated their 50th Reunion this past weekend. Not the traditional dinner/dance!!!!!
The organizers turned it into a three day extravaganza.
Lunch on Friday May 3, was a get together at the iconic Glenwood's for their famous burnt hot dogs.
Dinner was at Lenny & Joes in New Haven. The Lenny is our own Lenny Goldberg, a member of our class.
A tour of Hamden High School was arranged on Saturday morning, for our class to see the amazing renovations and improvements to our school. We quickly realized this was NOT the school we remembered.
Saturday night was the Dinner/Dance held at the Best Western in North Haven. The food was a delicious buffet. There was a DJ to spin the music of our youth. Those of us who could still dance got up and showed us what they got!
But, it didn't end there! On Sunday there was a breakfast, followed by golf or if you didn't play, there was a convoy to the casino's.
I would like to thank the many members of the committee who spent countless hours preparing and planning for this event.
I would also like to say that we are a pretty youthful crowd.
We can still party with the best of them!!!!!!!
