This site is designed so everyone can equally discover the latest coal region history & reunion info in a fun and engaging way.
This website contains our open and candid approach to saving coal region history AND planning the PVHS Class of 1996 reunion. We update monthly with no intention to upset, anger or promote some special biased agenda.
Our goal is to create a welcoming website (and 2026 reunion) that generates lasting memories for all. We want to appeal to as many classmates who want to attend as possible.
If you have ideas or feature requests to create a more welcoming coal region community then please share. We would like to quadruple our content, add new features like a coal region community chat (similar to reddit), a lost classmate AI enhanced finder tool for all classes (not just 1996), a memorial to the fallen PVHS classmates and other cool AI enhanced features.
This site is managed by the PVHS Class of 1996 Officers (BJ, Rick, Kristin, & Heff). You can email the admin here if you like our myspace and geocities design 😂🤣

Why attend the PVHS Class of 1996 30th reunion? 🥰❤️
We want to say it's because Marta keeps asking, "When we are opening the dam time capsule" 🤣 ♥️ 🤣 ♥️
Time is the one currency we all share equally and time is running low.
It's an event that helps classmates re-connect - just one more time on that groovy Panther train.
Reunions help folks rekindle those fading 1980s & 90s coal region memories.
Helps stoke the flames and fires - sharing our cherished childhood together.

The past does not equal the future, right?
Conduct your own “Did I Even Go Here?" Test” wandering around the reunion aimlessly trying to guess familiar faces and failing miserably at this).
Growing up in the 80s & 90s in the Panther Valley was special to many of us (Ok some of us). ☺️❤️
The "bubble" is vastly different than other places that many of us have traveled to.
. . . .and this will be THE EVENT to remember those youthful times.
