It will be a time to reminisce, reconnect with old friends, and maybe even make some new ones. The CDHS Reunion weekend is July 14 to 16th and they’re looking for volunteers to help out. Steering Committee leader and CDHS graduate Dave Sharp told us more.
The History Committee has been busy for more than a year assembling all important history, stories and photos into a book that will be ready to order in the spring, 2023.
Currently, the Steering Committee team is looking for volunteers for the weekend to help with all the activities. People who want to volunteer/help should contact Dave Sharp at CDHS2023Reunion@gmail.com
According to Sharp they’re going to need lots of help.
The Schedule currently looks like this:
Friday, July 14 – Open House and CDHS Social
Saturday, July 15 – Pancake Breakfast (Rotary Park), Ferris Park Tours, Open House, Musical Entertainment, Dinner at the Curling Club and two dances – Country and Rock & Roll!
Sunday, July 26 – – Pancake Breakfast (Rotary Park) & CDHS Open House
Dave told us what volunteers could expect.
Sharp, who graduated CDHS in 1972 said, “We have had such a great response to the CDHS reunion. A multitude of sponsors have signed up & the number of sponsors keeps increasing. We are so grateful for their support. And now we are looking for volunteers to help with all the weekend activities. It will be a fun time for them!”.
The website – www.cdhsreunion.ca is very comprehensive – it contains information on CDHS History, Photo Gallery, Yearbook segment, CDHS Merchandise, the Schedule of Events, an FAQ section and others.
There is also a “Where Are They Now” section so that any registrant can find out where their friends are now. Alumni can also now add contact information on their own profiles.
The site also includes a listing of Restaurants and Accommodations in Campbellford and surrounding towns for those attending the reunion.
“It’s been a great couple of years having our committee members contribute to the development of the reunion – and now they’ll be helped by the volunteers.” stated Dave Sharp. Committee members are – Stephen Nelson, Marsha Connor, Paul Connor, Steve Glover, Eunice (Chrysler) Stapley, Rob Pope, Jill (MacMillan) Koplowitz, Elaine Barry, Evelyn (Waddell) McLeod, Bev (Sharp) Spencer and Wendy Toms.
As Dave Sharp says “We’re seeing people register so that they can remain informed about the activities – and also so that they can get a discount on the fees for the activities. We’re also seeing more sponsors come on board. The weekend in 2023 is going to be enjoyable. See you all in Campbellford in July 2023”.
To have any questions answered, Dave Sharp can be emailed at CDHS2023Reunion@gmail.com or messaged on the CDHS Facebook page.
