TGIF and cheers, again, to reunion season … With that toast, remember that there’s always a first. And when it comes to firsts, there’s nothing quite like that first RFH reunion.

TGIF and cheers, again, to reunion season … With that toast, remember that there’s always a first. And when it comes to firsts, there’s nothing quite like that first RFH reunion.
It’s all a blur. That’s how some RFH grads of 46 years ago, more and even less feel about their graduation day.
Some things never change. And that’s a good thing for the Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) Class of 1978.

Continue reading Simple Summer: RFHers’ Pre-Reunion ReunitingWell, the time has come for yet another RFH class to have its 40th reunion. That would be the RFH Class of ’82.
The RFH Class of ’78 is headed toward its 45th. The 40th is a biggie. But there’s always that first, too. The 10th reunion.
For the Class of ’78, that was in 1988. So, to the Class of ’82 from the Class of ’78, I think I speak for all of us reunion professionals when I say “Cheers to reuniting!”
We’ll let you know on Monday what antics transpired at the ’82 reunion. In the meantime, take another look back at the RFH Class of ’78’s first at the Molly Pitcher Inn in August of ’88.
This table was up and away with a little purple balloon, it appears. These reuniting folks are still friends!
Cheers to Friday night and the notion that there’s always a party among RFHers somewhere who are still reuniting.

Continue reading Retro RFH Reuniting & RememberingWhen the spring air hits, a fever spikes to pack it in and get away by going back in time with old buddies.
The RFH Class of ’78 guys in this crew have been friends forever. Decades ago, they started their own little inner circle tradition of taking an annual camping trip to keep their ties binding over the years. Unbreakable is what the bond has remained.
The group has been somewhat altered over the years and one is now gone, but they keep the getaway reunion going — except, perhaps, in the pandemic year.
The guys: Tom Campbell, now gone, George Day, RFH yearbook photographer, Tom Hollyer and Mike Grady.
There’s a hitch and a wagon, so a pop-up trailer and/or tent can’t be far away. And, you know, in the 1970s, where there was a wagon and a hitch, there was a way — to hit the trail.
George is the photographer of the bunch, so we’re not sure who snapped this shot, but George sent it to R-FH Retro. Then again, timers on cameras was a fun new gadget to play with back then. So …
One thing’s for sure: Where there’s an RFHer tradition, there’s a good time and a lifetime bond. What exactly do you think these guys were up to in the woods on their first trip? This one?
Cutoffs were in back then. Now, who has the best legs? Bug spray, anyone? What kind of wagon was this and what do you think was in it for the gala trip?
Thanks to George Day for, yet again, another classic!
