2008 Alumni Reunion
Saturday, September 27th
Holiday Inn Grand Island Resort and Conference
Center
Greetings From the Alumni Association... 
We are so pleased to have you retuning to the school for your
upcoming reunion. Our 2008 reunion activities are being held at
the Holiday Inn Grand Island Resort and Conference Center
allowing our alumni and guests the opportunity to explore and
enjoy the many scenic and cultural activities found in our great
Niagara Region. Not to be missed events include our Saturday afternoon cruise on the Niagara River as well as variable golf tee times at River Oaks Golf Course. The greater Niagara-Canadian area is noted for many outstanding wineries as well as boasts the town of Niagara-on-the-Lake where the noted Shaw Festival and other cultural events take place. The US and Canadian cities of Niagara Falls offer many fine restaurants, museums, casinos and of course the sights and experience of the mighty Niagara Falls.
Our highlighted event is our gala
dinner and our ‘all alumni’ dinner dance. Our special
anniversary classes of 1953, 1958, 1983 and 1998 will have
special activities in recognition of their 55th, 50th, 25th and
10th year class reunions. The school and the Alumni Association
congratulate these class members on reaching these
milestones!
We encourage all attendees to bring photos, memorabilia and
other special ’memories’ with them. A special
’remembrance table’ will be available to display all
your treasured items.
The Alumni Association is an integral component of the school.
Without dues-paying members, students would not be able to
receive scholarships, participate in programs, or attend
meetings. We thank our members for their support and encourage
all of our alumni to join the Alumni Association.
We hope you are able to attend and look forward to seeing you.
You are the school’s strength!
Sincerely,
Rebecca Brierley
Director, Office of External Affairs
