Andrew Warde High School's classes of 1981 and 1982 held a successful joint reunion last Saturday evening, August 15, at the Trumbull Marriott. That's the word from Pete Bravo, a member of the Class of '81."It was a lot fun," Bravo told me via email earlier this week. "For a lot of us, the best part was hanging out and taking pics with grammar school friends." The gathering featured an open bar, pasta and carving stations, and a disc jockey. Bravo estimated that about 100 people attended.
As for holding a combined reunion with two successive graduating classes, Bravo thinks it was a good idea. "Having the two classes was pretty good," he admitted. "The turnout for '82 was not that great, and neither was ours. But the two (classes) together made for a decent turnout (overall)."
Bravo, a 24-year veteran officer with the Fairfield Police Department and happily married father of three, said one of the highlights of the evening was a slide show which he created and trivia from 1981 and 1982. "All in all, it was a great time. We had people come from as far as California."
"Both classes have remained very close, and that's the main reason for the combined reunion," said Dawn Anderson Graham of the Class of 1981. "The reason we had the reunion on an odd year is that people from the two classes haven’t seen each other for over 27 years, and we were ready to do something about it and just got it going!"
Congratulations to the Andrew Warde High School classes of 1981 and 1982!
