If you buzzed ‘round the hive in ‘65
Fifty years have flown by in the blink of an eye.
From the Beatles & Frank’s, Vietnam, JFK,
To Medicare, Smart(er) Phones and Bob Dylan on the cover of the AARP magazine.
(You’re right – this doesn’t rhyme, but nothing rhymes with “AARP magazine”
and this image spoke volumes about where we’ve been & where we are now.)
So suck in your buzzer, nip & tuck if you want to.
We really don’t care – we just want to see you!
HHS Class of ’65 ♦ 50 Year Reunion
DATE: Saturday, September 12, 2015
TIME: 6:30 – 7:30 pm Cash Bar and Registration
7:00 pm Buffet: (very) heavy hors d’oeuvres
The buffet menu will be posted on the website by the end of August.

The entrance on the east side of the facility is best; valet parking is available for high rollers – as well as the rest of us.
MUSIC: Joe Sais and Showcase
PRICE: $80/person or $150/couple
REGISTRATION: Registration deadline is August 22.
Price after this date is $95/person or $175/couple.
Since we are contractually obligated to pay the venue - in full –
14 days prior to the event, we hope it’s obvious that payment sooner
rather than later is strongly encouraged, really appreciated – and very helpful!
- Please send your checks made out to HHS Class of ’65 to:
Judi Miller Barrett, 11008 Double Eagle NE, Albuquerque, NM 87111
- Ladies: please include your maiden name on the memo line.
- Assuming your name is on your check, please put the full name of your guest on the memo line as well.
- If you have a preference for how you want your nametag/s to read, please include that information with your check.
HOTEL
RESERVATIONS: There are a limited number of rooms currently available at Sandia Resort for the night of our reunion at the
weekend rate of $209 + tax. This is subject to availability
so, once again, reservations made sooner rather than later
would be best if you’re interested. You can make your reservations by calling 877-272-9199 or 505-798-3930; or you can book online at
https://book.b4checkin.com/sandia/groups.asp?bookid=1031.
Please mention that you are part of the HHS Class of '65 Reunion.
And just a gentle reminder that hotel reservations are totally separate from your reunion registration. You’re
probably collecting Social Security by now – you can
afford it.
LOST & FOUND: Check the HHS Class of ’65 website (www.highlandhs1965) to see if your nearest and dearest friends who know
things about you are listed. If you don’t see their name,
contact them and encourage them go to the website to
register. “Inquiring Minds Like to Know.”
PHOTOS: If you have photos of you, your family, your HHS days, and/or images from any of the past reunions
that you would be willing to share, we’d love to have
them for a possible slide show at the event and/or
posting on our website.
Please scan them (or have a grandchild do that for you) and email them by August 1 to:
Tom Weinshenker: weinshenker@aol.com
Please (try to) remember to identify the folks in the photos and where/when they were taken.

A 50 Year High School Reunion means that we have officially become the geezers we used to point at, imitate smugly and talk about. However – we look better, fly faster, jump higher and laugh louder. Our 401 (k)s probably pay better, too.
We’ve had a great time planning this event and hope as many of you as possible will want to come celebrate with friends of long standing (we avoid the “O” word), remember our friends who are no longer here, laugh a lot, and just reminisce about a time in our lives and our community that made a difference.
If you buzzed ‘round the hive in ’65, this buzz is for YOU!
