Boom! We did it! Last night's SBHS '67 Get Together "On The Beach' at Pequot Avenue was an extraordinary success! Thanks to everyone on the Reunion Committee who worked to make it happen, especially Barbara Doherty for hosting us, and Donna Moore and Bill Beth Crocker who worked to ensure that we had the 'necessaries' (table supplies, ice, canopies, etc.) to make things work smoothly! We had about 30 attendees, making it the largest turnout since the Reunion itself, on a perfect beach evening. We were treated to an extraordinary display of New London History when The Mystic Whaler and La Amistad sailed The Sound right in front of us for an hour, as a marvelous pink sunset reflected off Ledge Light. It was Magical. Not to mention the wonderful food, drink and camaraderie that overflowed the deck, spilling onto the beach, emanating from our classmates who came from such far flung places as Florida, Virginia, Maryland, Philadelphia, and Massachusetts! And, as we were closing up, we even had a surprise 'pop-in' visit from 'The Sassies', a cadre of SBHS '68 ladies, led by Maureen Dugan Adams, who were having their own reunion of sorts this week! It was a fantastic evening! Wow! Thank you to everyone who made it happen!
