We had our 65th Class Reunion Banquet on Friday, August 27, 2021.
Where: Doubletree Hilton Cherry Creek, 455 South Colorado Blvd., Denver, Colorado
The only event we formally planned was the banquet dinner on Friday night to allow everyone the rest of the weekend to socialize, gather, and plan other events onsite or off. Classmates LeRoy Smith, Art Scott, Jayne Waller Pigford and Jo Katherine Holliman Page enhanced the evening with their donation of a 2-piece combo which added such a nice touch to the evening.
Classmate LeRoy Smith arranged for those of us interested to tour the Blair Caldwell African American Research Library in the renovated Five Points area followed by lunch at Five Points Coffee. 14 of us went on the tour which was both educational and fascinating.
Rooms at the hotel were made available at the special rate of $89/night for August 26, 27, 28 and 29 and several of our classmates took advantage of the offer which made for lots of socializing both before and after the actual banquet. It was a great opportunity to actually get reacquainted with one another.
