Magnificent Memories

I have the most magnificent memories of my teenage years. This year, the graduating class of Chowchilla Union High School (CUHS) 1973 held its 50th graduation celebration. There are many people to thank, including an anonymous donor who paid for all the meals for the class members who attended. I am truly grateful to be part of a group of classmates who share their hearts and support one another in such a way that their love for one and all is displayed today, as well as it was back when we were teenagers. Some of us grew up together, and some of us were introduced into this group as we moved to Chowchilla from other areas. Make no mistake. We all love each other dearly. We are friends in life forever!

Thank You to the Planning Committee

After an extensive two-year preparation, the organizing team behind the 1973 class reunion of Chowchilla Union High School (CUHS) unveiled an absolutely splendid affair. Every aspect was flawlessly orchestrated, from the decor to the cuisine to the entertainment.

During this heartwarming event, old friendships were rekindled, and new bonds were forged as we reminisced about the love we shared during our teenage years.

Throughout the gathering, I was deeply touched as my classmates acknowledged my past crowning as the homecoming queen of our class. Simultaneously, I felt profound humility, dear and cherished classmates, as you imparted lessons of love, loyalty, and support that far exceeded any other experience in my life. What began as a "competition" turned out to be the most transformative moment of my life. The wisdom I gained from that day remains invaluable, shaping my present lifestyle and guiding my daily decisions.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my most cherished escort, who guided me through the event—I would have been utterly lost without your support.

Fond memories of my fellow pep squad members filled me with sheer joy.

I want to sincerely thank the planning committee, the talented DJ who provided the entertainment, the dedicated caterers, and everyone else who played a role in crafting such a remarkable event. Thank you for these unforgettable memories. I eagerly anticipate our next reunion and hope that, in the meantime, we all stay connected.
