eMail from Ms. Dallas Wall Rust AHS 1960 dated March 4, 2021:

The AHS 1960 Reunion Committee has been working with the AHS Class of 1961 to coordinate a date that would allow us to share our Friday night, Oct. 15th, get together. We have decided on this date in hopes it is in the future enough that we will be safe to travel and gather. 😷

Friday evening Oct 15, 2021 6:00 pm till closing - Both AHS 1960 and 1961 classes gather at 3rd floor Scheman Building for heavy hors d'oeuvres and drinks. 🍷
