Has anyone else been to theirs? Mine is tomorrow- I haven't seen most of these people for literally 20 years!

Nope did not go, and Will not go to any of the others one they have.

I went to mine in 2005. It was a lot calmer than the 10 year

My 30 year is next weekend. I have heard that out of a class of 51, 5 are deceased. One of them was my best friend in High School, that when I went up for our 30 year reunion of the state championship basketball team, I lead him to the Lord and then returned home a few months later to preach his funeral.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone.

My 20 year reunion was 26 years ago.

And people wonder why I'm grumpy!!!

Mine should be sometime this month (unsure)... but our class was not as organized to the effect that all have been reached.

The only two we've conducted, 5 year (actually 6 years done in 1992) and 10 year (1996) were very good. We were going to have our 20 year in 2006 and I (class president), as well as our class treasurer (military), was involved in a career move at the time. Ironically, he was moving to within 45 minutes of where I was leaving at the time (St. Louis area).

Calm? Both of ours have been family oriented grill-outs. I was even asked to pray at the first one in 1992. We probably had an attendance of 30 - 40 (including children) at each event.

pastorables, did you have a small graduating class?

There were about 40 who graduated from my Baptist school and there were about 50 people there today with families... I was surprised!

I found out that:

A lot of my class mates have FOUR children, it seems to be the trend with our class. I think it's a good sign, must mean we like children.

One of our class mates is now the superintendent of the school.. go figure!
He gave us a tour (the reunion was held at the park across the street).

Several of my classmates homeschool, my best friend, in fact, has two girls and two boys (like me) and homeschools them all.

One classmate is a manager for Safeway and has worked there for 22 years... so it is basically the only job he has ever had! (Started while he was still in HS)

Most of those gals, bless 'em, hadn't gained more than an ounce of weight and still had the eighties hair goin' on... Our class clown (who is now a jr. high school teacher) joked we should bring back the "big hair"...

We all went in to the school and signed our names on the blackboard of one of our teachers who still teaches there..along with a "thank you."

I praise God I was able to go...It was a lot of fun.

Yes. I graduated in a town of around 1500. There were 60 in my graduating class.

I'm proud that you had an enjoyable time.

I just returned from my 20 year reunion last night. We had 39 people in our graduating class, and about 25 made it for the reunion. It was a very nice time. We also had in attendance, the families of two of the guys we graduated with who were killed in separate accidents just a couples of years out of high school. We had flowers to present to the families and had a moment of silence in their honor.

Might just mean ya'll like sex.

I have gone every 5 years except for 1 time that it conflicted with the GA. I wish I had gone to the reunion.lol

Actually, I was SO of SD when I attended my 20th. I won the prize for having come the farthest to the reunion......... A big bottle of Jack Daniels!
Everyone kept saying. open it preacher and let us all have a drink.
I said " God let me win this to keep you all safe on your way home".

My dad knew the guy at the liquor store very well...... and took it back for me and got the money for it. It helped pay my way to the GA.

We will have our 45th in 2010. I hope to be there.....I am the youngest looking man there every time.

My 20 year will be next year. The problem with my high school was that we had around 700 graduating seniors so when I went to the 10 year, I couldn't really remember who all were friends of mine and who all I just knew of. Judging from the amount they were all drinking I think they probably had trouble remembering as well.

I went to mine in 04. I really enjoyed it. It was sad to see some of my friends caught in the same ole life style.

Our class of somewhere around 225+ turned out a few pastors. I was encouraged by that, the class president, one of the basket ball stars, myself and one other that was there had become ministers.

Reunions are murder on spouses though.

I went to our 10th a few years ago, I think 20th will be better as hopefully more will have matured. I was glad to know out of a class of about 100 we had 3 pastors, myself, my best friend (got saved the same night as I did) and another who I used to go to church with in High School. Plus another good Christian I grew up with was principal at our school.
