Sorry, but we wil be unable to make this event as we are travelling around Europe while we still can. Hope everyone has a great time visiting old friends and reminiscing about the days and experiences of the past. Would have been great to see so many familiar faces, and hopefully it may still happen again.

During the past 2 weeks has been chaos with the flooding in Calgary but Hell or High Water apply's to our last Reunion to make it more special so please contact Donna ASAP and if your know other people from the Class of 72 please also let them know ASAP so we can reach our quota of 100 people cause Donna NEEDS your help. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.Jimmy

Just checking out the web site Thanks Donna and team for all you work, and for the supporters of the website. Wish I could have taken pics but broke my camera on the way to the reunion on the C train when the automatic doors crushed my purse, and yes, my camera was in there... Have replaced that and will be ready for the 2013, our 4oth reunion.... meanwhile, hope everyone has a great life.

Well, I am sorry I missed the reunion as I hear it was a great time. Denise Lalonde filled me in, in all that she could remember... was it age that gave her that challenge! Hmmmm. I was able to have a good visit with Brenda and Denise Saturday morning,reminiscing about our escapades in our younger days which then led us to remember many of you.
Hopefully, I will be able to make it to the 40th but it will be my youngest 30th birthday that day. Wow, that makes me think of my age!

Well, the festivities are over for another 5 years and this was the first year that I was unable to attend. I sure hope that you guys partied for us absentee graduates!
Please, please post some pictures so we can "pretend" we were there and start making plans for the 40th. As was mentioned in a previous post, in 5 years most of us will be closing in on 60 and making plans for retirement ... just like our parents were probably doing when we were graduating!
Thank you Donna for arranging ALL the reunions. You and your volunteers have made it easy for us to keep in touch while you do all the hard work!
See you in 5 years at the 40th!

The reunion was great! My first one.
Had too many excuses for missing previous ones, mainly because I had been in a fog selling and using drugs in the Pit much of my high school career and was feeling sheepish about revisiting that past. I apologize to those who may have been harmed in any way.
Things have certainly changed since then. It was good to revisit so many of you! All the best in the coming years.
Thanks to Donna Ludwig and team for all their efforts in making this happen!

What's all this nonsense about 35 years? You're only as old as you feel! Lately I've been working diligently soliciting door prizes for the big event. Some of them thus far are: 1) a one year supply of Lipitor 2) bags of assorted goodies with fun stuff like; Exlax, Preparation H, Metamucil, etc. 3) gift certificates to Lenscrafters
now if I could just remember where I put all that stuff....

We're so far along in our lifes that its hard to even think of re-connecting based upon what we were in our youth. I suspect we are such different people now with 35 more years of life defining experiences. This could be interesting. Ironically, I married a Beaverbrook grad and both my kids went to RT Alderman and Beaverbrook just like me.
