The Fayette Class of 1973 celebrated their 50th Class Reunion at Sauder Heritage Inn on Saturday, September 9th, 2023.
Eighteen classmates attended along with ten spouses. Twenty-eight people attended an evening of amazing appetizers and great food, wonderful conversations, and lots of reminiscing.
The evening included an ice-breaker bingo game, a table honoring the 14 classmates who passed away much too soon, and a table of old yearbooks.
There were many pictures shared, stories told, talking about the senior class play, and reading fun stories from the 1973 May issue of the Eagle’s Claw – Senior Edition of the school newspaper. It was a night we will remember for years to come.
