The Day After

To all our Classmates who joined us for the spectacular celebration of our 50th Reunion, THANK YOU for helping us make our dreams a reality.  We hope you all had a fabulous weekend, renewing friendships and remembering what it was like to be eighteen again, at least for a little while!
  For those who couldn't make it back to celebrate with us, we missed you all, and hope to see you at our next Reunion...55th anyone?  Can we wait that long?
  We hope to have a site up and running shortly for everyone to share photos from the weekend, for those of you who joined us, and for those who would like to see what we all look like now!  Please watch for more information from us about downloading your photos, and how to view and order copies.
  GO NEW ROCHELLE!!

Nancy Steinhaus and Judy Siegel,
and your NRHS 50th Reunion Committee,
Neal Dorf, Phil Kleckner, Harriet Corman, Karen Spitzer, Steve Marks, Maddy Topper, Marcy Bernstein, Marilyn Klar, Prue Posner, Lovelle Ruggiero, Stan Richmond, Ed Richmond, Lynn Hurwitz, Jane Dickler, Ken Roffe
