For everyone who went and those who couldn’t, we have some pictures up from the Ten Year Reunion. Don’t miss the “See as Slideshow” button on the upper right.

A big thanks to Reunion Committee Member Alex Love who took them for us. We’re hosting them on Flickr, so if you are willing to share some pictures you took yourself, send them to the Flickr group “OPRFHS Class of 1997″ (http://flickr.com/groups/oprf97/). Let us know if you have any questions.

There were also one-time use cameras at the reunion and we didn’t get them all back. If you have some, please either send them to us or develop them and post them online.

If you want, you can send us pictures via email or snailmail and we can post them for you. No worries. See you next time!

It’s been ten years since you left high school to make a mark on the world. How’s that going by the way? Hope things are going well. We’d all love to hear from you about where you are and what you’re up to. That’s why we’ve set up this website to help you reconnect with those friends you haven’t seen in ages. And reminisce about the good ol’ days.

It’s also why we’re planning the 10 year reunion which will take place on Saturday, October 20, at Molly Malone’s in Forest Park. Open bar, food, music that takes you back, good times to be had. Please RSVP and buy your tickets as soon as possible.

So please come home to roost and have a good time. And please let us know if you have any questions or if you’re willing to help out. There’s plenty that still needs to be done. Ask a question or say hello on our online bulletin board. And if you have any memorabilia or good stories and pictures to share, well now’s the time to clean out that “stuff from high school” box you have hidden somewhere.
