RHS65 55th Reunion Postponed
Important News 8/12/2020
Reunion for the RHS Class of 1965 has been postponed.....
The concerns of the covid -19 virus has made it very difficult for us to move forward with our 55th reunion plans. Everyone's safety and health is our first priority. Therefore, this morning (8/12/2020) the RHS Class of 1965 reunion committee met and decided to postpone our 55th class reunion on September 12, 2020. It was the opinion of all the members of the committee to take this action.
Those members of the class that sent a check for the reunion, your check will be returned to you shortly.
A tentative reunion date of Saturday September 11, 2021, has been booked with The Lodge at Tuscumbia, Green Lake, WI. We are hoping and praying that our lives will be back to normal by then! The date is subject to change if the virus would continue to be a factor.
We look forward to seeing you in the future,
Your reunion committee
PS....An additional thought, on Friday September 11, 2020 Vines and Rushes Winery, Ripon, WI will have music outside (weather permitting) from 5:30 to 8:30 PM. For class members in the area it would be an opportunity to meet and we could distance socialize. No commitment needed for this event.

Albright (Patti's Husband) will have the tractor & wagon there for us.

intersection from Miller's). There will be food & beverages.
Also, when I spoke with Randy Hatlen & Bill Kinzinger (principal & vice

football game for members of our class. Ripon plays Waupun at 7:00 PM.

Richard's family moved to AZ in 1959 (right after he completed 7th grade). I can't tell how enjoyable it is to chat with these people.....I'm glad I have unlimited calling!!!!" |
