Class of 1989 20 Year Reunion

We are starting to find folks for the Class of 1989 20 year reunion. We are inviting anyone who went to MCHS in that time period, whether they graduated in Mariposa or not. Maybe they went there in 9th and 10th but moved away. Whatever the case, they are invited as most of us went to school together since the 1st grade anyway! It would be great to see everyone. The event is tentative in Classmates.com. Please email Heather (Myers) Ritter at thoseritters@comcast.net to be on a list for more info to follow as the event unfolds. It seems quite early in the game, but time does fly! Please inform us if you know the whereabouts of anyone else who should be invited. THANKS!

Class of 1957 50 Year Reunion

The reunion was absolutely fantastic! We started with an unplanned gathering of a few folks at the Pizza Factory Friday night. At the same time, most of the old gang from Yosemite was having their own informal dinner.

On Saturday morning, we toured the halls of 'Posy High. We were interested to learn that graduations don't fit in the auditorium anymore; they're held at the Gold Bowl (fairgrounds arena). We had a good time looking at the photos of classes hanging in the hall. Since our time, the school has put up photos of every class. Of course, the recent classes have so many people, the photos are too small to see.

A large part of our group made it to the annual Alumni Picnic at the fairgrounds, where we were able to reconnect with many people from other classes.

The evening event was everything we hoped for and comments were 100% positive. We had located 56 classmates, and 46 of them attended, along with spouses or other guests, for a total of 75 people. We probably had 80 to 90 people who were part of our class during the four years, but only 37 actually made it to graduation (most graduated somewhere else). Of that 37, 27 of them were with us. 

Folks who stayed at the Best Western had a chance to enjoy the free continental breakfast together, and several of us had a very early breakfast at the Miner's Inn.

The Reunion Committee had more fun than anyone, working on this project for almost two years, and we think we'll be up to doing another one in five years.

We have photos and more information on a special 1957 Reunion page

 

Class of 1962 45 Year Reunion

We had an awesome 45th Class Reunion on Saturday, June 16th. It was held at Doug & Diane (Phillips) Kanarowski's beautiful home and gardens. Everyone walked the gardens, talked of old times at Posy High and caught  up on the present, with pictures of children, grandchildren and even great grandchildren. Dinner was delicious with tri tip, home made beans, potato salad, tossed salad, rolls and berry cobbler with ice cream. Sure can not beat home cooking!

Sunday morning at 10 o'clock we all went to Sheila (Bell) Tarvin's for brunch. Again we all had the pleasure of walking her garden. It is out of this world. She served a brunch we will never forget. Home made cinnamon rolls that her nephew Robert made, egg casserole, fresh fruit, and waffles topped with champagne. She outdid herself!

We had 38 who graduated in 1962, 6 are deceased, 32 of us are left. Half of our class were able to attend. Trent Williams, Sheila (Bell) Tarvin, Barbara (Smith) & Dick Schouten, Diane (Phillips) & Doug Kanarowski, Betty (McNally) & Jim Croll, Bobby & Artie Ball, Terry Anne, Gary & Denise Preston, Marva (Worley) & Len McWilliams, Pat (Kirk) & Ralph Wass, Joanne (Johnson) & Dale Warnes, Nancy (Remington) Billings, Richard & Sallee Lang, Carol (Dewhurst) & Marty Martian, Dennis & Diane Bunning, Bruce Orcutt, John & Roxie Upton and at the young age of 90, our dear Room Mother, Pearl Williams.

Bobby & Artie Ball came the longest distance, from Neosho, Missouri followed by Marva & Len McWilliams, from Reno, NV and John & Roxie Upton, from South Lake Tahoe.

Dean & Donna Savage, Oralee (Hull) & Mike Phillips, Christine (Kalp) Gonzales, Chancy (Orcutt) McDonald and Pam (Honea) Little were our guests.

We are working on our 50th already, and hope to have a turn out of 100%!.

We have beautiful pictures and memories that will be in our hearts forever.
