Our 60th class reunion is coming up.  I cannot get our pdf file to load on this site so I am going to outline what we have going on.

We are set up for Friday and Saturday Sept.19 and 20,  2025.  Friday evening we will meet at Brewminatti's on 6th Street from 5 to 7 pm.  This is a no host setup.  Beer and wine is available for purchase.  We are providing the venue.  No food is planned at this gathering.  Eating before or after is recommended.  Bern's Tavern, two Mexican restaurants a Chinese and Thai restaurant are within walking distance downtown.

Saturday we will gather at the Farmers Market from 9:00 to noon.  It is located on 7th St. at the City Park.  The Museum will be open and Don has arranged for tours of  both the new and old high schools beginning about noon.  If their is any interest I will do my walking history tour  of our cemeterys.  

Saturday evening will be at the Airfield Winery on Merlot Ave from 6:00 to 9:00 pm.  The meal will be catered by NeighborsBBQ.  We will provide Wine.  Beer will be available for purchase.  The Menu is Sliced beef brisket, baby baack ribs, potatoe salad, rolls and coleslaw.

I will try to have our banner, class memorbilia and photos boards available  both evenings.Times and costs have changed.  The days of the Barn $20 dinners are long gone.  We now have to rent venues.  The meal cost alone is over $20 each.  With all the costs considered we think we can break even at $70.00 per person, if we get 40 people.  We can do $20.00 for Friday .  Saturday morning & afternoon are freeby's .

Our April second Monday coffee gathering is this coming Monday, April 14, 2025.  We meet at Breminati's on 6th 

St. at 10:30 am.  Our  60th reunion notices have been sent out and we are getting responses from classmates.  We are still working on the Saturday Farmers Market activities.  Plans are to have a booth and display our archived treasures for all to see.  We are working on special parking forcollector vehcles.  This whole thing is a work in progress.    We are looking for letterman jackets, Band uniforms,  any displayable items from various clubs(Coachman Jacket),  FFA Jacket, etc.  Rita from the Farmers Market is excited about this and has gotten permission from the Hi School folks to display our class picture that used to hang in the old High schools hallway.

 Oh yeah -  Many Kudos to Tyler for throwing some cash at class creator so that we would keep our domain name.  Who knew we would still be doing this?  

                                                                                                      just Fred

It is time again to remind you of our upcoming second Monday Class of 1965 Coffee gathering.  It is this coming Monday, May12, 2025.  We meet at Brewminatti's on 6th St. in down town  Prosser.  

Excitement is gathering for our upcoming 60th reunion.  Hopefully you all know about it.  Reach out to any classmates that you still have contact with to make sure they are aware of our p;ans.  I have left the invite on this forum so you can  refresh and pass it on.  It is getting harder and harder to find everyone.  I can rant on and on about that.  Everything was different before it changed.

Rita at the Farmers Market is helping us with setting up a booth.  If you have an item to loan us for display that would be great.  I have all of our posters and Banner.  Any FFA jacket, Lettermans jacket, cheerleader outfit, Coachman jacket,  etc.

I think  we will be able to set aside some parking for special cars.  Let me know if you have one and want to bring it.

Don has tours of the old and new High Schools set up and we are working on having access to the museum.  Saturday is a freeby day.  We don't have to pay for a venue.  The Farmers Market is a 9:00 to noon deal with the tours in the afternoon.  If there is any interest I will do one of my famous Cemetery Tours.

                                                                                                                 Send money $ to Don and questions to me.

                                                                                                                                 just Fred
