Family Beach Picnic Part of Reunion Weekend


The 30th reunion of the Andrew Warde High School Class of 1976 is a two-day affair this year, including the reunion festivities at Testo's Restaurant Saturday, August 19, on Madison Avenue in Bridgeport and the family reunion picnic the following day.

The picnic is scheduled for 12 noon to 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon, August 20, at Lake Hills Beach #4 in Fairfield. The event is open to alumni and their families. It includes swimming, boating, volleyball, a picnic, and baseball. At least four certified lifeguards will be on duty for the festivities. Partygoers are encouraged to bring a picnic basket, their swimwear, and outdoor games. It should be a great time for all.

This event is open to family members of the 30th reunion class. It's an informal gathering on the beach affording us the opportunity to meet the families of those with whom we attended high school.

The beach has been a big part of my life growing up, since I've lived in the Lake Hills section of Fairfield my whole life. I remember playing Little League baseball on the diamond adjacent to the beach. Most of our neighbors and the children in Lake Hills virtually live at the beach, lake, and ballfield all Summer long. It's a jewel in Fairfield, tucked away off Black Rock Turnpike in the northern part of town.

Hopefully, you and your family can attend the picnic at the beach the day after the reunion. It will be a nice way to cap a most memorable weekend.

Paul
