TIME: 12 PM – 4 PM

MEAL: Buffet style. There will be a bar available for alcoholic and soft drinks. You will be able to use cash or card there.

COST for CLASS MEMBERS: $15. Part of your cost is being underwritten by a generous donation from Cherise Stallings LaBarbera’s estate (courtesy of her brother Don Stallings, WHS class of 1962).

Payment deadline is September 10, 2025.  Please mail your money (check or money order) payable to the WEST HIGH CLASS OF 65 to Diana Bentley at 313 W. Grandview Rd. Phoenix, AZ 85023. We are not able to process credit cards. Please be sure to list your name, as well as that of your guest, if you are bringing one, on an enclosed note.

We have tried to keep this as inexpensive as possible so that all classmates may attend. To avoid postal costs, we did not mail information. Information is on the website; found on class creator as WEST PHOENIX HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1965. If a classmate was not listed as registered on the site, we are using emails that we had from the 50th reunion. With that in mind, those of you who are receiving this email, please let your friends and classmates know about the West Phoenix High School Class Of 1965 Reunion in case they haven’t received a notification. Also remind them to be sure their email address is up to date on the Class of ’65 website.

We decided on a luncheon because we were aware, from our 50th, that some classmates no longer liked to drive at night.  However that does not preclude anyone from making any other plans with your fellow classmates if you wish to extend your visiting time or have additional activities.  There are two hotels (Best Western and Hilton) near the restaurant if you wish to stay nearby.
