| The PHS Class of 1970 has a new web site. They're gearing up for their 40th reunion in November 2010. Thanks to Barbara Weller for the update. 07-2010 |
ANOTHER MINI-REUNION
Ann Crumb performed at the Media Theater in February 2010, starring in Master Class. Reports are that everyone who attended had a very good time!
|
The PHS Class of 1973 and Class of 1974 each now have web sites. The '74 class is gearing up for their 35th reunion in July 2009 at Broomalls Lake Country Club, so they're trying to spread the word about their website. If you know of anyone from 1974, encourage them to visit the web site and reconnect with classmates! 05-2009 |
From Phil Damiani...
The Penncrest/Media Alumni Association has reserved Saturday, October 25th, 2008, from 7-11pm at the Middletown Fire Company No.1, for an Octoberfest.
We have been encouraged to have a 68' Reunion at this event.
Tickets are $30 per person and includes food, beverages and music. My suggestion would be that we get the word out to classmates and fill as many tables as possible! For those wishing to attend, just send a check to Penncrest/Media Alumni Association, The Madison Building, 108 Chesley Drive, Media, Pa. 19063 (please note PHS 68' on your check).
No tickets will be sold at the door.
