GAHS Class of 1975 reunites for 50th anniversary

The General Amherst High School Class of 1975 celebrated their 50th anniversary reunion earlier this month. Just some of the attendees are photographed in these submitted photos.

More than 100 people gathered at Wildwood’s Twisted Tees Nov. 1 to rekindle friendships that began over five decades ago.

Special guests included former teachers J. Sorenson, J. Vigar, J. Matheson, D. Bailey, P. Feurth, and B. Baldwin.

Classmates traveled from far and wide, some journeying over 2,000 miles to be part of this milestone celebration. Others came from the Ottawa area, Toronto, and Stayner, all were returning just for the reunion event. Though many couldn’t join us in person, they were certainly with us in spirit.

The reunion was organized by Debbie Bennett Clayton, Nancy Beaudoin Herdman, Danese Sinasac D’Amore, Mary Sprague Brown, and  Debra Chikaz White, becoming at times detectives in trying to locate their classmates. 

Gail Duby beautifully captured the evening with memorable photos and plenty of laughter!

The reunion not only rekindled friendships but also inspired everyone to stay connected. To those we were unable to reach, our apologies. We hope to reconnect soon.

A Facebook page called “GAHS Class of ’75 Reunion” has been created to help everyone keep in touch as we move forward together.
