"A Night to Remember" the 30 year reunion of the 1978 graduating class of Michael Power and St. Joseph's High School is now a memory itself.
What I had envisioned when the seed was planted a year ago and what I watched unfold on Saturday September 6, 2008 was extremely gratifying and well worth the time and effort.
To see so many hand shakes and hugs between old friends and classmates, hear conversations of the old days, the sound of heartfelt laughter and observe peoples reactions when they recognized fellow grads was all the thanks that I needed.
A loving thank you to my husband Jeff who supported me in what seemed like a crazy idea from beginning to end and was a great help. To our two daughters Lauren and Lindsay who wore the original St. Joe's uniforms and manned the registration table that evening a loving thank you as well. Looking at the two of you brought back a flood of good memories.
Thank you to all the "78 grads from near and far for attending and making "A Night to Remember" such a huge success and memorable evening for everyone.
To those unable to be a part of the celebration, enjoy the photos from the evening and know that you were missed.
Cheers to those no longer with us, rekindled friendships and new memories.
Your fellow classmate, fellow graduate and friend

An awesome gathering of amazing people.....the 1978 graduating class of Michael Power and St. Joseph's High School. The schools themselves may be long gone but the spirit certainly lives on!
Final attendance number for the evening was 196.
Final take at the two cash bars........let's just say that I wish that I got a percentage that night. After 30 years.....some things never change!
