A Pearl of a Time: CHS Class of 1981 30th Reunion |
|
Reunion: A gathering of friends at regular intervals or after separation. Dear Classmates, It has been nearly ten years since we gathered together back in 2001 and celebrated our 20th Class Reunion. Well, as hard as it is to believe, in just a few short months, June 2011, we will be celebrating our 30th Class Reunion. I cannot comprehend that it has been three decades since we marched across the stage in Zemp Stadium, received our diplomas and said goodbye to our alma mater. Thirty years is a long time. Many of us have started families. Some have stayed in Camden and surrounding areas whereas others have moved to different states. A number of us have inherited some gray hairs and a few extra pounds. A few among us have served our country through the armed forces and are now veterans. And sad to say some are no longer among us. For these and I'm sure many other reasons it is time for us to reflect upon the past, look forward to the future, and come together to celebrate our 30th High School Reunion.
