Class of Sept ’66 Reunion Update

33 of us got together for 2 days last Sept. at Harrison Hot Springs to celebrate our 45th.

Familiar faces, though grey hair predominates, many coming a long distance:  Lexi Hendricks from San Francisco, Lil (Harder) Macauley from Texas, Jocelyn (Todd) Holmes from Phoenix, Ginger (Harrison) MacDonald, to name a few.

Most of us are retired but a few not giving up quite so easily:  Lexi still in Labour and Delivery, Patsy (Wright) Farrar in the O.R….and more.

Casual meet and greet Thurs. night, a relaxing day or doing whatever on Friday and dinner Sat. night.  Not sure when the last person left the common room to retire for the night on Friday!!! But was definitely into the wee hours of the morning !

A huge thanks to Judy (Winn) Fitzsimmons for single-handedly putting this all together.

Watch for notice of our 50th, likely in the Spring of 2016.

Keep in touch.  Any changes in address etc.?  Notify Judy Fitzsimmons at HealthFitz@shaw.ca or Jacquie (Reed) Aird at rjaird@shaw.ca

Arriving at The Galiano Inn, the classmates enjoyed three days of memory sharing and lots of laughter. Dinner at The Hummingbird Pub was followed by the RCMP costumed escort and members in capes, caps, and scissors as Edythe arrived with The Torch. The self-appointed Health Clinic Nurses were presented with a Clinic Kit to ensure a safe night for all.

Gathering for breakfast the next day, the members completed quizzes, sang a revised Adjustment Song, opened Goody Bags, and heard Joan’s evaluation review complete with prizes. The Health Clinic was opened and several remedies were demonstrated before Ocean Potion was served to all.

Following Free Time to explore or relax, the group gathered near The Gazebo to hear and view Memories that some had never heard before.

Prior to dinner, a tribute to Charlotte Wynne was read and Moon River was sung. The Memorial Book was available for viewing. Following dinner, a new Alphabet for Seniors was presented and then The Squirelles Decades Tour channeling ABBA was revealed! The costumes and act were the highlight of the evening. Door prizes and special gifts were distributed.
