Villa Park High School (Villa Park, CA)
Classes of 1966, 1967, and 1968
This is the official web site for the Combined Reunions of these three Classes.
This page was revised on April 30, 2012.
When is the next Reunion?
The three combined classes will hold our 45th Reunion (46th for the Class of 1966, 45th for '67, and 44th for '68) on Saturday evening, August 4, 2012. This time we'll meet at the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino. Doors will open for us at 6:00 PM and we'll party 'til the cows come home. The Museum maintains seven hangars full of vintage (and working) airplanes. Docents will give us guided tours throughout the evening.
Included in your ticket price will be admission to the Museum's August Living History Flying Day event (the morning of our Reunion day). The August 4 event will be about "Bombers of the 8th Army Air Force." Included will be a lecture at 10:00 AM by experts in the field, followed by a flying demonstration of the Museum's own B-25 bomber. The event will conclude by noon.
For the Reunion, we'll have a barbecue dinner starting at 7:00, followed by dancing to the sounds of the sixties and tours of the Museum, and lots of time and quiet spaces for you to reminisce with your classmates. Cost to you will be $35 per person if you postmark your registration form by July 1 ($50 per person after that, and at the door). Please mark your calendar now and plan on joining us!
What should I wear? Where can I stay?
Dress for the Reunion is up to you. We have three recommendations from which you might choose: "Business casual," "Western," or "Aviator." You can see examples of "Business Casual" here. "Western" might be appropriate since we're having a barbecue. Or "Aviator" would work too, since we're meeting at an airplane museum. Have fun with it!
Unless you're going to stay with friends or parents while you're in town, you might want to find a local hotel. Here is a list of nearly 50 hotels within 10 miles of Chino, all recommended by the Automobile Club of Southern California (AAA).
Who will be there?
Here is the list of those who have paid to attend so far. Your name will be added upon receipt of your payment. Please join us!

Where are they now?
Here's how we keep track of you: Every now and then (usually during summer) we send out emails to all of our alumni for whom we have addresses. We've been using Classmates.com to contact you for years, but it appears that most of our alumni are no longer using Classmates.com (too much spam). So we're now moving instead to CLASSREPORT.ORG -- it claims to have "No Ads, No Spam, No Pop-Ups, No Fees." So far, that has proved to be absolutely true. So please check in and register there. You can choose how much information to make available to the public. If you choose to make your email address public, then your friends and classmates will be able to reach you that way...for FREE!!!
In the summer of 2011, Bob Sperry sent out emails to everyone for whom we have addresses, both on Classmates.com and by direct email. If he has your address by either means, you will have received his message by now, asking for confirmation of your mailing address. If you have never received such a request, then we don't know how to contact you.
If you move, please email Bob Sperry with your new address so that we don't lose you. If you change your email address, be sure to tell Bob and update your CLASSREPORT.ORG account. If you've never been in contact with us, please send Bob your mailing address. He'll take you off the Lost Classmates list (see below).
If you know the whereabouts of anyone on the Lost Classmates lists [look up your siblings!], please update us on their status or tell us how to contact them.
Send us an E-Mail. And make sure that you don't end up on one of those lists --
send E-Mail to the same place with your new address when you move.
Here are the lists (they will be updated whenever new information is received):
Class of '66 Lost
Classmates
Class of '67 Lost
Classmates
Class of '68 Lost
