Welcome Class of 65 Classmates!

 Our reunion is a mere 6 months away now.  We are all going through a very strange time right now, but I am confident that by September we will be seeing some much needed normalcy.  It will be a welcome chance to reconnect, reminisce and remember simpler times in Westborough growing up.   We have this site rather than a Facebook page to ensure that no scammers have access to our info.  Our reunion committee listened to those of you who gave opinions about planning for our next reunion.  The vast majority responded that a restaurant rather than a fancy club or the K of C would be preferable.  We have secured Arturo's Restaurant for Saturday evening, Sept 12, 2020.  We also have chosen Tenka near Harry's on route 9 for our Friday night "meet and greet".  You can stop by for a drink or also have appetizers or a meal.  That will just be a pay as you go type of event.  If you aren't fond of Asian food, you could grab a bite at Harry's next door first!  Dave and Paula Hero have offerred to host our breakfast on Sunday morning starting at 9:30 at their house at 1 Fay Mountain Drive. Hopefully that is early enough for any of you with Sunday flights. Check out all of the details and registration by clicking on 55 year Class Reunion in the left column..  I suggest waiting till at least June to send checks in order to reevaluate the covid 19 virus status.  I will be reminding you when that time comes.

  Just since our last reunion, we have lost 14 more classmates as well as our friends and teachers Mr.Ballard and Miss Spinney.  It is amazing to think that there is less than a year till our 55th.  I hope many of you will try to come.  We are hoping to keep it pretty casual and affordable for all.  I'm also trying to coerce Carol Raubeson Leon and Pete Batcheller to try to organize a FL get together, since so many classmates live there now!  We are also hoping that all of our FL, GA, SC, NC and other coastal classmates will stay safe during this hurricane season (and always, of course!).

I have just added some interior photos that I took at Gibbons Middle School which used to be our high school.  The seventh grade is in an addition which wasn't there when we attended.  The eighth grade which includes my grandson is in the original.  I attended his Open Door day just before the start of school and was impressed with the new lockers and all the other upgrades. It's looking brand new again.  Check out the photos under class of 65 photos!

With 2020 being an election year, and with diverse strong opinions out there, I am asking that classmates please refrain from using this site as a platform for political statements.  Lets just keep this a fun place to visit.

 If any of you have any plans to visit Westborough at any time, please let me know and I'll send out an email to see if people might be able to get together for a drink, a lunch, or just a chat.  We can use this website to keep people in touch even when a reunion is not the focus.

When you visit this site for the first time, ignore the email and password box,  click on "Classmate Profiles" in the left column, find your name in the list and enter from there. That is where you will put in your email address and establish your own password to use when you sign in to the site in the future.  Your address, phone and email will not be able to be seen by anyone but the administrator (me).  Once signed in you will be able to visit all the other classmates who have signed in as well as view pictures that have been posted under the heading "Class of 65 Photos".  You also have the ability to add to those photos and to post photos on your profile page (yes, we'd love some recent photos!).

Please join the website and start exploring! Check back often as new things will be added.
