In June of 1969 we left Hanover to pursue our lives as individuals.

We have evolved from a Class into a Community. We thrive not in spite of but because of our differences.

We are an incredibly active group.

We have a crew of dedicated officers and a large executive committee. (If you wish to join, we'd love to have you.) The Class gathers in person for Reunions, Mini-reunions and Homecomings. We also have over 200 annual online or hybrid events.

As time passes and we age, our numbers may shrink - but our classmates are not truly gone while we remember them.

Join us in Hanover for our 55th Reunion, June 10-13, 2024.

Reconnect with old friends and make new friends.

See you there!
