FINAL 5 YEAR CLASS REUNION

Hi Folks,

At the last monthly meeting of the Duluth Central Class of 1961, we began to discuss our final 5 Year Class Reunion. The reunion will be held Wednesday August 19, 2026 (our normal 3rd Wednesday of the month) and would be an early afternoon (Like 1:00 or 2:00 pm). This would allow those close enough an opertunity to be able to drive here, enjoy the great social get-together and still be able to drive home in daylight hours.

The meal would be a low key all-you-can-eat luncheon at (Unknown Location) with vendor offering their smorgasbord which would give everyone options according to their dietary needs (this also gives us less up front planning of meal options). The venue would agreed to close the facility just for us until 6:00 pm and since it is on a Wednesday and not a weekend the costs would be lower. Being that it is two years off, they could not give an estimated price, however, since we do not have to pay for a venue and a caterer, the price will be very much lower than the last reunion. There will be no guest speaker or special presentation, just the camaraderie of us getting together for one last great Duluth Central Class of 1961, 5-Year Reunion.

For those wanting to stay over a second day or make a longer vacation event for themselves, Pat and I are willing to host a catered morning brunch at our home on Thursday August 20, 2026 at 11:00. This would be similar to the event we held at our last reunion. We are hoping to again have my grandson Captain Aiden available to provide paddleboat rides for those daring to venture out on our pond.

Just a note, we will never be stopping the monthly meetings, and all are welcome to attend any one of them. They are always the third Wednesday of each month, however stay tuned to the web site to be sure of what location we are going to have the meeting.

We are looking forward to your input and would appreciate any ideas you may have. Please contact us at:
