Class of ‘72 50th Reunion
Due to unforeseen circumstances, such as Covid on the rise and Los Angeles talking about reinstating indoor mask mandates, as well as limited capacity for indoor gatherings, we have decided to enact our plan B, which is our reunion moving to an outdoor event with large tented dining area, DJ, dancing, catered food, and much, much, more.
With the money we’ll be saving, we are going to provide an open bar from 6-9 and door prizes. This plan B also eliminates the time restriction that we had with the R10 Social House.
The new location is a large 1/2 acre yard in West Torrance just up the hill from West High. It will take extra effort to pull this off, but in consideration of everyone’s health, we’ve decided this is our best option, and trust us, it will be a fantastic 50th reunion.
You will have a blast while catching up with your classmates.
