Sept 27, 2014 Rebels Rocking The Night Away...

Table decorations set ( Thank You Peggy Fieldcamp (Huerta)) so it was time to party! THANK YOU to all  the Class of 64 Rebels who attended.  We are happy other classmates from other years attended too. Rebels sure know how to party!
Bev Sturman.. Donnie Skinner made it. They are tall and beautiful...!!!!
Linda Wallace arrived!!!
Stan (the man) Tkaczyk and beautiful wife Barbara.  Stan worked on the committee. What a great gentleman he always was and is!  Thank you Stan!!
Sandy Seese and  her and Bobby's daughter(center) and Pam Pando
 Toni Catucci , Linda Wallace, Jayne Morris
Patt Duke, Larry Hall :-)
Tony Brooklier and wife Patti got some dance time in.
Peggy Fieldcamp, Diane Zetek .. oh happy days!! :-)
Mike Hachez Faulkner  and wife Toni Catucci  dancin' the night away.
Stan Tkaczyk  and Tony Brooklier m.c.'d the night.. Class Act Duo!
Harold Glass  brought his dancing girls with him to perform a spiffy little number from Caboret. Harold appears to have lost his britches. 

All ended well!!  
and.. Tony Bs band absolutely rocked the entire evening. They were SOOOOOOOOO good and sooo
much fun! Anyone that thought people at a 50th reunion would be slow dancin' all night would've been WRONG! 
    
  Tony sang some cool stuff too !   The band's appearance was Tony's gift to the party! We are forever grateful Tony. 
I think we all LOVED this evening.... many of us have known each other since 4th grade.  My gosh!  I'll post more pics if you send 'em..savannahighschool1964@gmail. Thanks to all who came, and hello, we love you to those unable THIS time... and shout outs to those we heard from the day before... Gail Hillen , Stan Newton, and probably several I don't even know about.
     Go Rebels!!!  Patt Jump ( Blair-Hughes) :-)

SEPT 27 2014.. More news... More fun!


The Rebels Rise Again!
~after 50 Years~

By now you should have received information (by phone, US mail, email, etc.) letting you know about this upcoming 50th Reunion.  If not, here’s the scoop:

Saturday, September 27th, 2014
HILTON COSTA MESA
3050 Bristol Street – Costa Mesa, CA  92626
714-540-7000
Tickets:  $99/p  Hotel rooms:  $104 + Parking (at a Hilton?  Wow!)
Casual attire – live band! – Dinner – Cocktails (no host)
A million memories, memorabilia, etc. Included!

NEWS FLASH!  We have just added a Pre-Reunion Cocktail Party on FRIDAY, September 26th, also at the Hilton, in the Lobby Bar and Restaurant, from 6:00pm until ??? 10pm?  It will be very casual, no-host bar, but hors d’oeuvres or dinner available for purchase, if you so desire.

Can it be?  Yes, after 50 years, the Savanna Rebels will gather once again and renew relationships and memories, and have a chance to get together with those old pals from school!  I’m sure you must be curious about who married who (or not), what they chose to do, where they decided to settle, etc.   Don’t deny yourself the chance to catch up with those friends who made high school so fun, challenging and interesting.  At this point, we are all in the same boat – OLD J so don’t let that stop you from coming to enjoy a totally fun and rewarding evening.  We have lots planned and have been working hard to make this a stellar event, so all we need is YOU!
