Scene Around: RFH Class of ‘80 Reunited

There’s nothing like going home except going home and seeing friends. It was so fun! Did my soul good to see all these wonderful people.” — Bonnie Robinson

Proof that there’s no place like home and awful lot of RFHers can, indeed, go home again to one another manifested in two banner-year reunions over the weekend — a 45th and a 50th.

Retro RFH Reunion Hoopla

Well, the time has come for yet more RFH classes to have big number reunions this weekend. They would be the RFH classes of ‘80 and ‘75, celebrating their 45th and 50th, respectively. Talk about big ones … Wow!

But, you know, there was always a first … The RFH Class of ’78, pictured here at their first (the 10th) is now headed toward its own 50th. But that first is one that’s never forgotten, mostly because there was still a lot of youthful partying energy, and, sadly now, more classmates still with us. It’s a real milestone.

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 ‘75 and ‘80 reunions. 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! Are you?

So, Cheers to those big reunions! Report back!

Retro RFH 1930s Football Boys

With the advent of the football season comes memories of old days when the RFH Band played on with more members, but many may not recall that the football team was small.

Band was big in the 1970s. But, going back more than half a century, like back to the 1930s, when RFH was Rumson High School, the football team appeared small. There was no regional. And the population was, well, small. There were sprawling estates, farms (with a lot of asparagus growing wild) and berries aplenty for picking.

Retro RFH Dudes of Caribbean Locals’ Summer

A reprise Retro Pic of the Day, originally posted on Sept. 14, 2016 in the spirit of a balmy locals’ summer day, knowing that the summer spirit never truly ends for the Rumson-Fair Haven area young and forever young at heart … And these guys are about to reunite at their 50th RFH reunion

With locals’ summer and school’s start, students’ thoughts naturally turn to warmth and freedom. They start to daydream before they even hit the classroom. That’s how it goes in the R-FH area when those beaches become barren and more room is made for the locals to get down to the business of soaking up that locals’ summer partying spirit.
