BHS Class of 1961 – Class Reunion

A group of your classmates has decided to skip the traditional 5 year reunion schedule and plan for a 64th Class Reunion for the BHS Class of 1961. 

The reunion date and time is August 16, 2025 from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.  This is a Saturday at mid-day, which worked well for people who traveled to the last reunion.

We have chosen T F Brown’s Restaurant at 214 E Main St., Batavia, NY 14020 for the event.  We will have a private room: a casual and informal setting for OLD friends to reacquaint.  You will be able to order off the menu.  Money will not be collected in advance.  The menu and other information can be found at: https://www.tfbrowns.com/.  

Since the class funds were depleted at the last reunion, we will not be snail mailing invitations.  We hope to reach as many of you as possible through the class website.  If we do not hear back from you, we will make an attempt to reach you by phone. 

We need an estimate of how many plan to attend.  Please respond and let us know if you plan to attend.  If so, let us know if others will be attending with you.  If you are unable to join us, respond with any comments you would like to share with your fellow 1961 BHS classmates.  We will compile the comments to share with others at the reunion. 

Hopefully you received an email containing this information.  It provides you with a convenient way to respond.  Go Blue Devils!

Reminder to Classmates

There are three ways you can communicate with classmates:

  1. You can go to their Classmate Profile page and leave a comment. Note that all your other classmates who have so elected will receive an e-mail notifying them of your comment and will be directed to that page where they can read it. You may want to use this somewhat sparingly.
  2. You can use the Message Center, under Member Functions, to write a directed private message to one or more classmates. If they wish, they can then respond directly to you in a private message.
  3. You can Post Announcement, also under Member Functions, which, after a few hours (for vetting purposes, keep it clean please surprise ), will be displayed here on the Home Page for all to see.

Actually there's a 4th method too. You can use Message Forums (above Member Functions) where you can have more complex dialogues on subjects of your choosing with classmates who elect to participate.

Thank you!

 

We're still actively recruiting contributions (photos, clippings, etc.) from classmates' personal collections to be shared here. Root around a little in your sock drawer and show us what ya got!

 Note: Photos should be sent to JCM@batavia61.com.
 
If you're unsure of how to do this, you might want to go to a commercial site (Office Depot, Office Max, Staples, or similar), give them the actual photos to scan and have them send the images to JCM@batavia61.com. Subsequently we can work out where the photos should go on the site, titles, etc.

This site isn’t about waistlines, hairlines or credit lines...

It’s about lifelines.

It’s about reconnecting with our friends from some of the best years of our lives!
