Multi-class high school reunion scheduled
Bell-bottoms and disco will be back in style as Wareham High School’s classes of the 1970s gather for the second year in a row for a day-long reunion on August 20 at the Dudley L. Brown VFW, located at 4 Gibbs Ball Park Road. The reunion includes Wareham High School classes graduating from 1970 to 1979.
The reunion will start with a cookout from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and continue with a dance featuring the music of the '70s from 7 p.m. to midnight.
The cookout will offer hamburgers, hot dogs, turkey burgers, and veggie burgers, along with various games. A DJ will provide music at the dance and direct classmates in performing karaoke.
Classmates are encouraged to recall their '70s school days attire and dress in the style of the decade. A prize will be awarded to the person whose outfit best represents the '70s style.
Tickets for the reunion are $10 per person for the cookout and $10 for the dance, or $15 per person for both. A cash bar will be available throughout the day. T-shirts commemorating the reunion will be on sale at the cookout for $15 each.
Classmates are advised to purchase tickets early as sales are limited due to the capacity of the VFW. Tickets may be purchased locally at Legacy Insurance, located at 213 Main Street, and at Oak Grove Package Store, located at 47 Depot Street.
Out-of-town classmates may purchase their tickets by sending payment and a self-addressed stamped envelope to: Classes of the '70s Reunion, P.O. Box 70, Wareham, MA 02571-0070. For more information, contact Melissa McArdle Goodell at mmelissagoode@aol.com.
