Dear 1961 Classmates: Over lunch at Another Time on Main Street, about a year ago, a few of us contemplated how we might celebrate a special time for our class at the All-60's reunion this summer. Although 2011 is actually our 50th anniversary year, we felt we could celebrate a year early as part of the bigger reunion, assuming most folks would not come back to North Dakota two years in a row. Hope you all agree and that you'll plan to come and enjoy. Our goal is to provide smaller venues for us to gather as a class without the noise and confusion of the larger group. Plans are moving along and below you'll find an updated scheduled for our get-togethers intended for all 1961 classmates from Valley High, St. Kates, and College High. If you have any questions, let us know at Hiliners61@gmail.com. Below, you'll find the latest schedule for the special events we're planning. See you in Valley City this July! - Barbara (Sheppard) Lang, Valley High, 1961 (Editor's note: 1960 Photo of Barb shows her sending materials for the 1961 Sheyenne yearbook to the publisher.)

6:00 — Catered buffet-style supper. Cost to each person is $15 per person, $25 per couple (part of this fee covers the hall and other expenses). No charge for grandchildren under 12. Water, lemonade and coffee provided; bring your own sodas or alcohol. We’ve purchased a liquor permit for the event, but it’s BYOB, including bring your own beer and/or wine. After dinner, stay and enjoy—or move on to the events at the All-60’s Reunion venue.
Saturday, July 10: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m, or beyond
Spend time at the President’s House onVCSU campus. We have rented the house for the weekend. The downstairs area is open to everyone. Coffee and water will be available along with snacks. You’ll find displays of memorabilia and photos and a collection box for classmate booklet pages. We’d love to have you bring whatever memorabilia you have to share with the group. There will be plenty of time to relax and enjoy “catching-up” and reminicing.
