Getting ready for our 30th reunion

The Scotia-Glenville High School Class of 1978 is quickly approaching its 30-year reunion. No plans for this event have been made or discussed and a committee has not been formed to coordinate an event.

The following suggestions have been received from classmates regarding an activity:

  • Plan a low-key event for the summer of 2008.
  • Consolidate reunions with the class of 1979 and have our event in 2009 (don’t know if the Class of 1979 would be interested).
  • Plan an event to coincide with most classmates 50th birthday (those born in 1960) and schedule an event to be held in 2010.

We are soliciting volunteers and suggestions from our classmates. Do you have a suggestion and/or do you want to be part of the organizing committee? Ideas are needed and appreciated by everyone.

Please forward your comments to Karen Helms at khelms@hillnmarkes.com or call her cell at 518-466-2044. Contact Karen and let her know if your phone, home address, or e-mail address has changed so we can keep our class e-mail directory current.

Visit this website periodically as updates will be posted here.



Notes for our 25th reunion

July 26, 2003:  Post Reunion Summary
 
An outdoor reception was held at The Governor Yate’s House in Schenectady’s Stockade District.  Classmates and guests enjoyed a beautiful day socializing with friends, enjoying delicious food (provided by Robb and Doreen Clemons, owners of Dairy Circus), listening to music, playing volleyball, and swimming. 

What did you miss? 

Doug Haight showed us all how to properly serve a volleyball, Dawn Falace displayed her athletic prowess in the swimming pool, David Erickson demonstrated the correct technique for pouring a beer and achieving maximum liquid and minimum foam, and John O’Leary treated us to his bartending skills, which were second to none to Tom Cruise in the movie Cocktail. 
 
Die-hard partygoers continued the celebrating at O’Leary’s Pub & Gill in Scotia where they we joined by other classmates who could not attend the outdoor reception. 
 
A special thank you to Tim Koral and his family (mom, step dad, son, and sister) for preparing the grounds (gardens, pool, etc.) and to his grandfather for allowing use of his property.  Don’t be surprised if we use the property for future outdoor reunion events.
