Over 150 classmates and guests enjoyed a
no-host Friday night mixer with complimentary appetizers at Buster’s Beach
House on Alamitos Bay. Two hundred
thirty attendees celebrated at the reunion main event on Saturday at the
Long Beach Yacht Club, and on Sunday morning we gathered in the quad at Wilson
High School for a picnic and
views of the current campus. Principal Moraga
provided crowd-pleasing tours of the school and shared an
orientation video created during our era at Wilson.
Some members from our class were in the video, which delighted the viewers!

wonderful a weekend as we did! For all

Sunday Picnic on the
Wilson High Campus
The Reunion Weekend
will continued on Sunday with a picnic held in the Wilson High School quad
Why Attend?
It’s been forty years since we
graduated from high school. A lot has happened since then. We don’t look like
teenagers anymore, and we fortunately don’t think like teenagers anymore. We’ve
grown up.
The reunion weekend is a chance to
spend time with people who share similar memories and experiences. We were all “there”,
and we’re happy that you’re still “here.”
They say that you can never go back. Well, for just one
weekend, maybe you can.
