Mainland Regional High School class of 1969 held a three day celebration in honor of the fact they are turning 70 years old this year.
The festivities began at the Somers Point Beach concert on Friday night, July 16th and was followed by a beverage or two at classmate, Walt Gregory’s bar and restaurant. Saturday was the main event, a party to beat all parties! The festivities included a dunk tank, cornhole and horseshoes. DJ, Joe Gorgo played all the hits of their era.
The class charged $1.00 for 3 balls at the dunk tank and had a 50/50. The proceeds were donated to Last Salute, a full service military Funeral Honor Guard serving Atlantic County.
They ended their night singing “Happy Birthday” to one another and enjoying a piece of cake.
On Sunday they met at a local Diner for breakfast before saying so long until next year.
