A prelude to the 50th reunion took place August 17, 2013, with a GHS '64 BBQ and potluck hosted by Roland and Judy Draeger at their Puyallup home they call "Hillbilly Heaven". What a gift Roland and Bill Finch gave us all in planning and hosting this special day. Thirty classmates (+1 from Sunset Jr. High) and their spouses enjoyed a special day reconnecting and wondering how it could really be fifty years! What a great day for Grizzlies! Roland and his wife, Judy, have hosted an annual reunion for our class on the third Saturday in August every year since our 50th reunion. Thank you doesn’t say enough for all the good times!
