Many of you recall 2013 and the 50th anniversary of our graduation from CRETIN. Several gatherings (alumni banquet, memorial mass, golf outing, and 6 school get together) were held to celebrate this milestone. Shortly after those gatherings took place in September 2013 our classmate Dave Britz floated the idea of regular, frequent get togethers for the class of 63. Dave got a couple of classmates to discuss and beginning in January of 2014 the class of 63 began the regular monthly lunches on the second Thursday of each month at O’Gara’s restaurant until they closed down in 2018 and since that time at the Pool and Yacht Club in Lilydale.
With that background we begin our 10th year of uninterrupted (except the Covid pandemic) second Thursday of each month class of 63 lunches.
Since we are now in 2023, do the math—–60 year anniversary of CRETIN graduation coming up soon. There has already been some interest shown by both our classmates and CDH to get some things scheduled to celebrate the 60th. Just like for the 50th we will need some class of 63 guys to step forward to do some organizing of activities.—-THINK ABOUT IT!
