57th Reunion
We Are 75 Years Young!
The question has come up: “Why are we having a 57th reunion? That’s not exactly a milestone year!”
True — we somehow managed to miss our 55th reunion. But rather than waiting around for our 60th, we realized something important: this year we are all turning 75. And since 57 and 75 are the same numbers in reverse, it seemed like fate — or at least good reunion math!
At this point in life, we’ve learned not to pass up a good reason to get together. So come join us to reconnect, reminisce, share stories, laugh about old memories, and celebrate the friendships and experiences that have stayed with us through the years.
So the real question is not “Why 57?” but “Why not?”
