CAHS Class of 1968 55th Reunion
REGISTRATION & PAYMENT NOW DUE!

Asti's Italian Steakhouse
Grandview Country Club

** Latest News **

Registration forms and payment for the 55 year “midterm” reunion is due in a few weeks. We really want to see as many of you as possible and are attempting, through Larry Cervi, to get a hold of a few of our teachers, too. As we get older, these opportunities to reconnect become more important, so let’s just DO IT! We are looking forward to seeing all of you and just having some fun. If you haven’t received your registration forms, please contact Pete Provenzano at pdppro@comcast.net so that he can send them out. If you are already on our mailing list, but still haven’t received the forms, check your SPAM or Junk mail folders as they were sent to large groups with a .PDF attachment, which sometimes triggers filtering by email providers.

To clarify the dress code for the weekend - the Friday night "meet and greet" at the Roman Bistro is "come as you are" so jeans or whatever is comfortable is appropriate.  The Saturday night "dinner" at Asti's Italian Steakhouse at Grandview Golf Club is "business casual" meaning coats and ties (for men) are optional.  Beyond that, you can "dress up" as you deem approriate.

** Original Posting **

The reunion committee now consisting of Bobbi Unger Broffman, Americus Rocco, Cathy Smith Potter, Pete Provenzano, Linda Buttyan Waggoner, and Marcia Goodwin Pillar met last Thursday and discussed many of the details of the 55 year reunion. We have received many inquiries, input, and affirmative responses, so it is GAME ON for the 55th. The main event will be a casual (by overwhelming majority) dinner at a nice, local, suburban venue, Asti’s Italian Steakhouse at Grandview Golf Club.

We are blessed again this time around to have our friend, Jack Cloherty, with help from Fred Haas and Jim Trusilo, organizing another golf outing, hopefully for the morning before the main dinner (these plans are still in the works). At this time, although still pending, we are also hoping to return to the Roman Bistro on Friday September 29, 2023 for a “meet and greet”, since it was such a success last time with near universal positive feedback.

More info to follow. Any questions can be addressed to Pete Provenzano at pdppro@comcast.net.
