65 Year Reunion

HUGHES CLASS OF 1954   --   65 Year Class Reunion

In 2019, it will be 65 years since we left the hallowed halls of Hughes High School.  We have experienced many changes in the world, in society, and in technology in those 65 years.  Some of us  have survived, and, unfortunately, some of us have gone over the rainbow and have not made it.  Our prayers are for those classmates we have lost.  The rest of us will have an opportunity, at a reunion, to reminisce, to catch up, and to review the last 65 years since Hughes.

That reunion will be on Saturday, September 14, 2014 at the Radisson Hotel, Fifth St., Covington, KY.  To avoid having to drive at night, we are going to a luncheon in the afternoon.  Saturday morning, at 9:30, will be optional for a tour of the renovated Hughes.   At Noon, Hospitality Hour at the Radisson, followed by a sit-down luncheon at 1:00.  At 4:00, we board our chartered bus for a tour of Cincinnati.  At 6:30 we will stop at the Taproom for the Christian Moerlein Brewery for a beer and a snack, on your own.  We'll return to the Radisson at 8:00pm.  On Sunday morning, from 10:00am to 2:00pm, for those staying over to Sunday or anyone else, come up to the Revolving Restaurant at the Radisson for Brunch.

Mark you calendars now and plan on making the trip to the big  6 - 5 in September, 2019.

2014 Our 60th Year

WOW! Here it is, our 60th year since our graduation. In 2012, we had several luncheons and dinners at deSha's Restaurant. We went, as a group, to the new Horseshoe Casino. Sadly, we lost several classmates that had been active in our activities. Now, we're looking forward to 2014. In 2014, our first luncheon will be on Tuesday, February 18th at deSha's at 11:00am. Barry Berman and Bruce Bernhard have agreed to be the new co-chairs for HALO. The first luncheon of 2014 will be on Thursday, April 10th. It will have a baseball theme. Our 60 year reunion will be held on the weekend of June 27 & 28 at the Radisson Hotel in Covington.

Hughes High School Class of 1954 and Friends
2011 has been a good year. We have had several successful events during the year. We have had three get-togethers and our "Day at the Races" at River Downs Race Track. Attendance at our events averages 45 classmates and friends. We would like to have more attend. It's great to see old classmates and to renew friendships from years ago.
Our next get-together will be after the first of the year - in 2012.
Believe it or not, in 2014 we'll be celebrating our 60th class reunion.
So, at this point, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and a very Happy New Year.
For information about any of our activities, contact Bruce Bernhard at bmbernhard@fuse.net or at 859-441-7530.
