Class of 1960 Picnic Sept 29, 2007 The class held a picnic/potluck 65th Birthday Party at Cedar Ridge Lodge, located in Battelle Darby Creek Park, (just west of Columbus) on Saturday September 29, 2007. The party coincided with the OSU football game in Minnesota, so it broke up a little early. The lodge is beautiful and guests were greeted with a gorgeous view of the woods and a very clean and inviting facility. The crowd was not as large as the five year reunions, but what it may have lacked in size was made up in enthusiasm. The food was plentiful and the decorations added to the festivities.

Class of 1960 Reunion (45th) The 45th reunion of the class of '60 was held September 16, 17 and 18, 2005. The eagerly awaited and long anticipated reunion began with a tailgate party on Friday the 16th at Grove City High School. The football team played Westerville South. The night began with a trickle of classmates and soon there was a lively, happy group enjoying the food. The weather was a little "iffy" at first, but soon cooperated with a clear, crisp night accented by a beautiful harvest moon. Unfortunately our beloved Greyhounds (now referred to as Dawgs) did not fare well on the field. Despite a valiant effort by the team, Westerville South beat our boys with a lot of speed. Archie Griffin's nephew was outstanding. On Saturday the 17th, we enjoyed a party and dinner at Gala Events, Grove City, Ohio. In addition to the many classmates and their guests, we were treated with the presence of two special guests - teachers Jim Lester and Elmer Houdashelt. The food was delicious. The room was neatly decorated with crimson and blue balloons. The evening was punctuated with squeals of laughter and howls as many laughable events were discussed and old friendships rekindled. There were several classmates who attended for either the first time or the first time in many years. Several bricks from the old high school were cleaned and prepared with a plaque and felt backing. A few are still available for $10.00 plus shipping. (Picture) We were treated to a talk by Ike Stage a fellow alumnus who brought a mural of the old Park Street School. (Picture) Jim Lester spoke with fond memories of our class who were Juniors when Mr. Lester began teaching. He and Mr. Houdashelt were special inspirations to many of us and we enjoyed their presence immensely. A special time of remembrance of the thirteen classmates who have departed our world was held. Reunion Party pictures On Sunday the 18th, we held a brunch at Gantz Park in Grove City. Again the weather was wonderful, the food delicious and the company great fun.
