Dear Fellow Class of ‘56 Alumni:

We had a fabulous 50th Reunion Weekend (September 8-10th). If you couldn't join us, we'll be uploading some pictures of your fellow classmates enjoying themselves in 2006. There are already quite a few 2006 photos on this web site. Click to see 2006 pictures of your Oakland High friends.

The reunion was so much fun that some people are talking about getting together in two years for everyone's 70th birthday.

The 50th Reunion Committee has been working this past year and one-half to plan and promote a reunion weekend that enticed all of you to come celebrate with us. We have been searching far and wide to find everyone, and appreciate all the assistance we have received from those of you who have forwarded names and addresses. We'd like this web site to create opportunities for us to get together and renew old acquaintances and memories.
