Well, RFH has emerged victorious once again. Friday night’s win made them state champions. And while the team is busy playing all the way to champion wins, there’s a lot more in the way of school spirit going on down on the field and/or sidelines, not to mention bleachers.

‘Tis the season for an appropriate reprise …
Yes, it’s been a stellar RFH football season. And while the games aren’t always home, those bleachers at Borden Stadium have always been and are still quite sacred — for cheering on the teams and just plain hangin’ out, game or not.
In the spirit of all things sporty and sportsmanlike, everyone knows that RFHers are pretty serious about their good bleacher times.

The stage is getting set for the RFH Tower Players’ fall production of Nutcracker; and, there’s a need for some techie help in set construction.
Yes, it’s a tough job, and those who have to do it love to do it. The need is just greater than past years for some tech crew help.
So, we’re taking you back … to the days of a rather opulent set and a diligent crew setting it.

Well, with the 2024 presidential election kicking off the week, it seemed only appropriate to continue in that theme with retro RFH photos — class presidents, their teams and even the top administrator.
Why not? If the day fits … And, lest we forget that back in the 1970s, there was a bicentennial for the U.S.A. going on. And there was much making of the year in the theme of RFH festivities and the yearbook.
The RFH Class of ’76, in fact, reprised its own ode to our first president, George Washington, with a mock crossing of, shall we say, McCarter Pond?

A reprise of an RFH classic from 2016, just because it’s that time again …
Election Day is drawing near.
Political season has been in full swing in more ways than one — punches are being thrown in all directions.
It’s why they call it silly season. But, let’s take the focus off national and local politics of today and step back in time to the 1970s and politics as it was with RFH students and teachers.
Continue reading Retro RFH Political ClubbingOur annual Halloween reprise!
Halloween is here.
So, the Retro Pic of the (George) Day is, well, several pics in a slideshow of none other than those fabulously fun RFH students of the Class of ’78!
So, here’s to the retro spirit of haunting from a classic RFH gaggle of ghouls!

There’s nothing like playing dress-up and drive-by for Halloween at RFH.
In the 1970s, students really got ghostly and festive with it all. Costumes were creative. Though, given the era, it was hard to tell if a few were actually costumes or just the outfit of the day. Ah, but, of course these girls were “disguised” as those ’60s, not ’70s, hippies.

A most necessary reprise …
They were headed every witch way on this Halloween in the late 1970s.
That would be Sue Brower and Bonnie Werner of the RFH Class of ’78.
So the double-dose Retro Pic(s) of the (George) Day feature them at their Halloween best.

A reprise from 2017, just because … BOO!
Scary season has set in … in more ways than one.
People in the Rumson-Fair Haven area have been haunting up their homes, crafting costumes and getting into the spirit. So, why not add a little extra retro spooking from RFH students of the past?
BOO who or what? It was all in the haunt for RFHers back in the 1970s. They started getting the Halloween party going early on and ended up with a pretty festive feast of ghouls on the grounds of the high school and, yes, beyond.

Homecoming at RFH scored big with a week’s long celebration culminating in a win for the Bulldogs on Friday night.
Yes, there was a lot of celebrating, but there was no dancing. Well, there was no official RFH dance hosting alumni coming home and seniors on the night before Thanksgiving like decades ago. And the event? Well, it’s all about October. Has been for some time..
