50th Reunion Updates


March 13, 2024

 Hey Class of 1974: it is about 4 months until our 50th Reunion! Your Reunion Committee (YRC) has continued to work to find classmates and develop an agenda of events for everyone to enjoy. This letter is a recap of what is in place so far.  Watch for the official, final announcement/ invitation early April!

 Have you...

1. Found Class Report? This is the page we are using to manage a database of classmate information, to share event information, and send out correspondence. Thank you if you have already registered on CR! If not, please help us by registering. It's easy, and as secure as we can believe anything is. Go to shs74.org. This will take you directly into our page. Find the place in the second column that says "register"; your name is already entered. Create a Password, then correct and/or add your information. But as long as we have your email address, you will receive updates. 

2. Followed us on Facebook? We have had a FB page since 1994. It is Willoughby South High Class of 1974. Our posts will pop up for you. And you can look back & see what you have missed. You can also share comments. 

3. Started to Make plans to party with us? Here is a brief recap of the developing agenda: Friday, July 19, 2024: Meet for coffee in the morning, tour South High in the afternoon, attend Dinner Party at Manakiki Country Club in the evening.
