The Dreher Foundation is excited to announce an All Class Reunion weekend May 11-12, 2007. This event promises fun, fellowship, and the opportunity for all Dreherites to reconnect with the school and their classmates.

The weekend's theme is "Looking Forward to Looking Back." There will be a registration at Dreher, tours of the old and new Dreher, and a short showcase on Friday between 1 and 5 pm.

Separate class events or reunions (ie. Class of 1957) are encouraged on Friday night. The school will be opened for tours on Saturday, May 12. There will also be enjoyable athletic events during the day, too.

Saturday evening is the grand finale - a huge party at the new Columbia Convention Center, including a band, heavy hors d'oeuvres, a silent auction, memorabilia for sale, and plenty of friends with whom to reunite. Alumni will want to mark their calendars for the festivities in Columbia.

Volunteer assistance is also needed. There are many planning teams which you can join: Publicity/ Communication, Staging, Memorabilia, Publication/ Invitations, Corporate Sponsors, Tickets, Class Rep Recruitment, Silent Auction, and Event Planning.

The Dreher Foundation meets on the fourth Monday of every month in Room 110 at Dreher at 6 pm. ( July 24, August 28, Sept. 25, etc.). Atendance is encouraged. For information or to volunteer, please contact Francie Markham (Foundation president) at britlit@sc.rr.com or 803-771-9988 or Debbie Kinder (Dreher contact) at dkinder@richlandone.org or 803-929-3968. Go Blue Devils!
