Our 14th GRHS Alumni Reunion will be held on Saturday, July 27, 2013, at the renovated Opera House.
We hope that you will be able to join us to celebrate the 40s, 50s and 60s. The afternoon will start with a reception open to the public from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. at the Opera House. During this time period there will be a computerized slideshow (early photos of Grainfield, yearbook photos, and a short presentation by Nicole Godek) playing continuously in the south half /first floor and music from 40s, 50s and 60s playing in the ballroom on the second floor.
The dinner will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the Opera House, which will be only for alumni, spouses, escorts and invited guests. The meal will be catered by the Dugout. After the meal, we will have a program, a short business meeting, entertainment by the Harmony Singing Group from Gove and then dance from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. to music from the 40s, 50s and 60s in the Grainfield Opera House Ballroom (new elevator installed to reach the 2nd floor as well as a renovated outside staircase).
Bring your own bottle (hard liquor, beer and/or wine)! Soft drinks, water and ice will be provided by the Association.
