The annual Wiscasset High School Alumni Banquet is set for Saturday, June 3, at the school’s gymnasium, 272 Gardiner Road.
Social time will start at 5 p.m., followed by dinner and the program at 6 p.m.
Mid Coast Caterers of Pittston will cater the event. The menu this year is a barbecue, including a vegetarian option.
This year will be the 121st anniversary of this banquet. Wiscasset is one of the oldest active alumni associations in the country, according to a news release from Thomas Boudin with the association.
The association invites any Wiscasset graduate, GED recipient or graduate of another high school, who attended Wiscasset High School or Wiscasset Academy for at least two years, to join the association. Dues are $5 per year, and dinner costs $18 per person by only advance reservation.
Alumni historians will have historical displays for viewing. School administrators, officers of the association, and the graduating class president will welcome everyone and the new graduates. Scholarships will be presented, and a roll call of all classes in attendance will be taken.
Representatives of the 25- and 50-year classes will present short stories about their classes. Multi-generation graduates with graduating seniors will be recognized.
Wiscasset is one of the few schools that invite all classes to their alumni banquet each year.
Classes having reunions for both 25- and 50-year classes for the years of 1970, 1971, 1972 and 1973 are asked to notify classmates who haven’t attended recently and may not be on the mailing list because a reservation is required to attend.
For more reservation information and forms, contact Sheila Sawyer, class of 1971, at 882-6035 or email dssawyerhelp@gmail.com.
Prepaid dinner reservations must be returned to Sheila Sawyer, 3 Langdon Road, Wiscasset, 04578, no later than May 18, in order to allow sufficient time for the caterer to prepare the meal.
