Elkhart High School Class of 1961
“Those were the days, my friend…”
We hope many of you will be able to join us at the Elkhart High School Class of 1961’s 50th Class Reunion on August 19,20 & 21, 2011. There will be events all weekend beginning with an informal get-together Friday evening at the High Dive Pavillion where sandwiches and snack food will be provided. During the day on Saturday you will have the opportunity to tour the renovated Lerner Theatre, if available, and enjoy a pleasant cruise on the upper St. Joseph River aboard the River Queen. Saturday evening the reunion banquet will be held in the Crystal Ballroom of the newly restored Lerner Theatre ( we knew it as the Elco Theatre). The committee will be inviting and recognizing teachers who have somehow managed to live fifty years or more after having us as students at Elkhart High. Finally, on Sunday, you can wander the Wellfield Botanical Gardens on north Main Street.
WATCH YOUR MAIL. Within the next two weeks, you will receive information regarding a class booklet we will be assembling which will be available in September .
