Note:  There will be no Newsletter in August, we are taking a break!

Lynnfield Trivia

The June Trivia results are now posted on the LHS Website.  We had 17 participants with 5 answering all questions correctly.  Maybe they were too easy?  Lets see if July's questions are a little tougher.  The Play Lynnfield Trivia July is now available to play on the Website.  As with June's, it is a multiple choice format.  The correct and incorrect answer summary will be posted in September. Have Fun!

Hotel Blocks

The LHS Class of 1970 50+1 reunion has a block of rooms for out-of-town guests at four hotels located near our Saturday night (9/18/21) venue.  Beginning September 25th you will be able to click on the Hotel Blocks page on the LHS Website for specifics on how to make a reservation at these hotels. 

Regional Club Concept

Rescheduling our 50th Reunion until September 2021 was a difficult decision, yet appropriate.  Many have  expressed disappointment they would have to wait more than a year to see each other again. Many of you have probably seen John Wrobel's Website postings trying to organize a summertime event to fill the void.  John also discussed an idea with Janet Silva Grady (Reunion Steering Committee Member).  He suggested that we might consider developing “Regional Clubs” similar to “College Alumni Clubs” to plan informal social get-togethers or Zoom Meetings within a geographical area. 

We have established a new page Regional Clubs on the Website Homepage, which details the background, concept and possible execution of this idea.  For the most part, our registered Website classmates tend to reside in three regions:  Northeast, South, and West.  Assuming there is interest, a volunteer or Area Coordinator would be needed to organize, plan and communicate events for the group.  Please take a few minutes to visit the Website Regional Clubs page and then complete the Regional Clubs Survey in a drop down box adjacent to the Regional Clubs page. This Survey will help us gauge interest levels and potential Area Coordinator volunteers. 

Website Profile Updates

Given the rescheduling of our Reunion to September, 2021, many classmates may need or want to update their Profile (contact info, address, photos, etc.) between now and then.  The Website should issue a reminder to do this six months after you orginally signed in and created a Profile.  Please take a few minutes to review and update your Profile as needed.

Feedback & Input

We are always interested to hear your thoughts, ideas and comments regarding not only our monthly Newsletters but also our Website content.  We have received some great ideas from some of you (John Wrobel's is a good example) and have tried to incorporate those into our communications and plans.  Don't be shy, if you have ideas, comments or suggestions on how to make our communications more interesting, fun and informative, please send your thoughts to:
