Hi Class of 1974 Classmates!
The 50th Reunion Committee is pleased to present you with a tentative schedule of activities for our BIG CHILL weekend, June 7-9, 2024. The committee has been working behind the scenes already with our Assumption Reunion liaison, Melanie Demarais, to put together a fun weekend, and we have been contacting classmates by email or phone to drum up enthusiasm. It seems the enthusiasm is already there—most of the people we have contacted are eager to come to 500 Salisbury Street in June. Admittedly, our phone calls and email exchanges are lengthy—because there is so much to catch up on and so many memories keep flooding back into our discussions. Just imagine how rewarding it will be when we are together in person!
So, take a look at the tentative schedule below, with events exclusive to the Class of 1974 marked in blue. You will shortly receive a communication from the Reunion Committee about our class gift to establish a Class of 1974 Memorial Scholarship, and in April you will receive registration information to reserve dorm housing ($75 per person for 2 nights) and for the Gala dinner on Saturday night, June 8 ($65 per person). Looking for Hotel accommodations in Worcester? Room blocks have been booked at various hotels downtown. See Hotel Room Blocks below.
If you have any questions about the reunion, please contact any of the committee members listed below or our class liaison Melanie Demarais (demarais@assumption.edu).
