Dana Scritchfield Jennings and her committee did a wonderful job on this reunion! (Photos for this event may be found here, here, and at the 1975 Facebook page.)
Here’s a note from Dana for all members, friends and family of the Class of 1975!
We had over 100 attendees and several of those included teachers, Mr. Bob Zakoski and Ms. AnneMarie Ebeling. We were so thrilled that they were able to join in the festivities which included an outdoor bar, dinner, dancing to our great 70’s tunes, a photo booth and a silent auction with such generous donations as:
- a surfboard custom painted by renowned artist and fellow classmate, Kevin Anderson
- a beautiful seascape painted by classmate Nora Dewey along with matching note cards
- fused glass pendant jewelry by classmate Jamie Richie
- a contemporary painting by Lauren Nutter, daughter of classmate Nick Nutter
- a five day seaside casa vacation in Mexico by classmate Kimberly Campbell
- a getaway vacation to Lake Arrowhead, at the family cabin of classmate Buffie Ecke
- a serving platter and cookbook donated by Carol Bryant from Pampered Chef
Shiela Wirick deserves an honorable mention for helping organize and print desciptions and sign up sheets for our silent auction, which paid for the out-of-pocket expenses such as the Memory Board displays, teacher tickets, ” Class of 1975″ cake, memorial candles and candleholders, picnic at Moonlight Beach, etc.
I had a lot of help from the SDA Alumni Association, especially, Bonnie Wren, in obtaining San Dieguito memorabilia and artifacts that were priceless!
Without the help of my committee members, Doug Heflin, Nick Nutter, Buffie Ecke, Lori Disselhorst, Debbie Montes, and Chris Marker, this event never would have happened!
Countless hours were donated by each to make the event such a success!
We used the services of Lynn Thompson and her staff at Reunion Specialists to bring our vision to a reality. Job well done! The hotel staff at the Sheraton was very accomodating as well!
The event was so well received that we don’t want to wait another ten years to see all of you, and hopefully, many more at the next reunion, that we are already planning the next one in five years from now in 2020!
Please let me know if you want to help make that one another celebration to remember!!!!!!!
Thank you,
Dana (Scritchfield) Jennings
Reunion Committee Chairman
