We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that was able to attend, thank you for coming to our combined years 30th & 31st High School Reunion! If you were not able to make it, perhaps you’ll be able to make it next time. Everyone seemed to have a good time catching up and meeting each other’s families.
We were also honored with the presence of several of our amazing Teachers, Mr. Ernie Scott (Donna), Mr Juan Perdomo & Mr. Oscar D. Overby!
Trying to track people down was not an easy task. On that note, there are still some people that we have not heard from and some that we do not have any information for at all. We will not remove someone from the “Lost Classmates” list on the website until we can confirm his or her contact information. Please take a moment to try and locate them for us, or have them contact us directly. Please use the website (www.ourclassreunion.org) or send an e-mail to info@ourclassreunion.org

We want to give a special thanks to: Shakira Forte, Dorothy Hughes, Linda Anderson, Valerie Teller and Hope Rohan in making our class reunion a success. These ladies spent relentless hours in the accounting department, hundreds of telephone calls to our fellow classmates, mailed letters & notices and many other task. These ladies worked each night at our welcoming desk during our class reunion celebration. Words cannot express how much I personally appreciate each and everyone of you.
Debbie Mason-Holland, thank you so much for locating many of our fellow classmates. You spent long hours on the telephone tracking our fellow classmates from all across the globe. We all appreciate your effort and kindness.
We would not have been able to have such a great tour of our new New Brunswick High School had it not been for Glenn Ford Esq. We thank you and appreciate the time you contributed in giving our colleagues a tour.
Cynthia Phipps, Class President of 1980 and New Brunswick High School Hall of Fame deserves a huge round of applause for representing her class well. Class of 1980 you truly have a great Class President! Many people may believe that being elected in a Class Officers position during High School the task stops after graduation, but that's far from the truth. This is not an easy task and many don't live up to the minimum expectation. Again Cynthia, thank you.
Anthony Robinson, Class Valedictorian of 1981, thank you for representing our class well. When you gave your welcoming speech to our colleagues and guest it was heart warming and truthful. We are so proud that you stood up and represented the Class of 1981. We applauded you for keeping it real!!! Thank you so much.
James Rice, you did an outstanding job. You gave us music like no other DJ could. You are one of a kind. You represented the entire New Brunswick High School flavor!! The one and only "JAMM MASTERS".
Amazing Grace Little & GLB Band, the roof was on fire!!! We really enjoyed your outstanding performance. We had so much fun and you bought the house down especially during New Brunswick High School version of the soul train line. No one could hardly keep in their seats. When we look up the words awesome talent we will forever see "Amazing Grace Little & GLB Band". Our entire Class Reunion thank you all so very much. We do look forward in a long relationship with you and your band.
King Jack Moose, we thank you and your team for providing security.
Ron Bass; Saxophone Player we enjoyed your performance. We thank you.
Bing, Photographer, we thank you.
Brad, Videographer, we thank you.
Kool Bubba Ice & Company provided our comedians, we thank you all.
Hyatt Regency & DoubleTree Hotel @ Marriott, we thank you.
Signs by Tomorrow, we thank you.
We really appreciate and thank all of our sponsors; Seven Star Development, R & R Studio Productions, Coast to Coast Tax & Accounting Solutions.
Thank you to all of the alumni that have helped to get us contact information. It does help to receive a message that tells us where someone works or where their parents live, but it is especially appreciated if you take it a step further and contact him or her directly. Since many of us may no longer live in the area, this will save us time and money.
It was great to see everyone that could make it. Perhaps more people could become involved in planning the next event. It is difficult to make decisions for 400+ people, when only a few are involved in the planning. Please think about participating in planning the next reunion and let us know if you would like to help.
