45 Year Reunion, Say what???

Posted November 2023

There's been quite a lot of interest in holding a 45 year reunion since we are all getting up there in years. I've reached out to Hogan and St Patrick/St Vincent asking if they would be interested in holding a joint 45 year reunion in 2027. Hogan has expressed an interest and I am awaiting a response from SP/SV. Once we know what's going to happen I expect planning to start in 2024 or 2025. Keep you eyes on this page or the class Facebook Group to stay up to date on this event.
