50th reunion planning

50th Reunion planning continues
(yes, it's come to this...)

The Reunion Committee met on Feb. 24, 2008 to kick off planning for the 50th reunion of the MCHS Class of 1960. Ken Allen and Jim McCaverty agreed to visit eight possible sites for the reunion weekend festivities, which will be held in September or October, 2010 (depending on site availability). Please e-mail any member of the committee with your ideas (or better yet, contact us and join the committee). For a photo from a meeting June 28, 2009, see below.

To begin 50th reunion planning, 12 people gathered at the Mermaid, a famous Hermosa Beach landmark that may soon be torn down for beachfront redevelopment.
