 The
Knights and Ladies of the Class of 1960 of Los Altos High School,
held
their 50 Year Class Reunion on September 24, 25,
and 26, 2010. Over 100 classmates (about one-fourth of the class)
attended the
reunion. A good time was had by all. The festivities
included:
- A tour of Los Altos High School on
Friday afternoon, with student guides.
- Informal gatherings at the
Biltmore - evenings and breakfasts
- Golfing on Saturday morning.
(no photos due to
photographer's appendicitis!)
- The big party
on
Saturday night.
- A picnic at
Shoup Park on Sunday
afternoon.
Many classmates
arrived early in the week and/or stayed some days after the reunion in
order to visit with friend and families who live near Los Altos.
Some classmates made longer visits to each other while in the United
States for this important event.
It
was agreed by all that we would all stay in better touch with
other. This website will remain online for at least the next
decade to facilitate the staying-in-touch plans. Char Schill is
the keeper of the LIST and will update the records of classmates'
contact information IF we let her know. For this purpose you may
contact Char Schill, Lynne Pfeiffer, or Diane Edlund Lee.
This
is YOUR website, and we encourage YOU to send more photos (both
youthful and current), stories of the reunion, or other pertinent
information. Our
webweaver, Lynne Pfeiffer, will add these to the website at any time --
just contact Lynne.
- We thank
Diane Lee,
Char Schill, Lynne Pfeiffer, John Reikes, and Maureen Denton who worked
on the Reunion Committee for 18 months. We also thank many other
classmates who researched addresses and persuaded old friends to come
to the reunion events. We needed all the help we could get, and
it was generously given.
- We thank our teachers Elizabeth Allen
and Dude Angius
for attending the party
and helping us remember all we received from the LAHS staff so long
ago.
- We
thank Great Reunions for
finding long-lost friends, sending invitations and reminders, and for
facilitating the reunion arrangements. They prepared a Bio Book for each
attendee, and a copy of the cover and the pages provided by the
Committee are here
online.
- You may still check those old
yearbook photos at the Great
Alumni website.
- We thank Hotel Biltmore in Santa Clara
for hosting our event and hosting many of us who stayed there.
- We thank HomeStudio
Photo for taking photos at the party -- you may order
more photos from their website for some time.
Additional photos and information have been
shared since the reunion and are now online. More will
come! We have found and added the missing lines for the official Fight Song, the Program
from our Graduation Ceremony, and some new
photos. A future lengthy project will be to scan and place
the
1960 Excalibur yearbook online.
Attention: If you want to
download and print a new Bio-Book cover (with corrected Knight logo) here it is as a pdf file.
NEXT
TIME: We are considering a reunion picnic in Cuesta Park in
2015. Your suggestions and comments are welcome. (Diane
Edlund Lee asks you to save your photo name tag)
