                                   DDHS Class of 1961

                                   SEPTEMBER 9, 10 & 11, 2016

Plans have been finalized for our 55^th class reunion weekend.

On Friday, September 9^th we plan to meet at 5:00 for drinks and comradery before dinner at The Village Supper Club on South Shore Drive, Delavan for one of Wisconsin’s famous Friday Fish Fry’s.   The fish fry includes both broiled and fried fish, french fries and potato pancakes, cole slaw, apple sauce and bread served family style (around $18 includes beverage, tax and tip).  Individual checks will be available.

Saturday, September 10^th we will gather at Gordy’s Cobalt Lounge and Sail Loft,

320 Lake Street, Fontana, WI at 5:30 pm for socializing (drinks and appetizers) with an Italian buffet to follow between 6:30 and 7 pm ($40 per person).   Gluten free choice is BBQ ribs. A chair lift is available to the second floor for those who may need assistance.

Some on the committee suggested we all go out for a breakfast or brunch on Sunday at Lake Lawn Lodge.  Those who went to Lake Lawn after our last reunion really enjoyed it.

We will be contacting you in the spring of 2016 with more detailed information and a registration form to be completed and returned by JULY 1, 2016.

Please remember to keep your contact information updated with Frank DeVoy (freaknvoyd@earthlink.net).

We look forward to seeing all of you at the reunion!

It's me and glad to hear from you.  I will forward your info to Pam and Frank DeVoy.  Frank does this fantastic Excel program to keep track of everyone.  I'm having a hard time getting back into the blog from my laptop, but when i get to the frigid north in two days I'll see If I can send the announcment with a cut and paste.  I'm closing up my mother's house in FL  not a bad place to be as the weather has been cool and getting the house ready for sale isn't as easy as it was years ago.  Myrt

 I sure hope this is you Myrt,
I was surprised to find my name on this list, but it does make sense.
My wife found the blog by accident. We attended the 25th reunion Sat evening dinner, I think
Joyce Rieser Atkinson organized it. Anyway she was my contact. I haven't heard from anyone
about any reunions since. I am unable to open the 55th announcement shown on the blog.
I don't use Google, don't have a Google profile, don't facebook for reasons I won't mention here.

I sent an e-mail to pwstarr823@gmail.com but haven't received a response, that could be
because she didn't recognize my e-mail address.

Anyway I can be contacted at ...............
