HOW THE HECK DID WE GET THIS OLD!!!

Welcome to the Ross Sheppard Class of '75 home page. This page is intended for alumni from our graduation year to renew old friendships, make new friendships and to keep in touch with each other. These pages will change from time to time as more photos (hint, hint) and features are added. Stay tuned.

OUR 40TH YEAR SINCE GRADUATION!!

It is hard to believe, but 2015 marked the 40th year since our graduation. Since we have never passed up a good opportunity to party, we celebrated the event! We started by having two informal get-togethers on Friday October 16, 2015: Brewster's Meadowlark for Westmount and Westglen alumni and Tumbleweeds (with a Western Days theme) for everyone else. The actual reunion took place on Saturday October 17, 2015 at the Highlands Golf Club. The evening consisted of food stations, a short program, and much mixing and mingling.

If you are on facebook, then be sure to "like" Ross Shep Reunion, a page dedicated to this event.

We also presented a powerpoint slide show at this event.


CONGRATULATIONS TO ROSS SHEPPARD HIGH SCHOOL FOR THEIR 50TH ANNIVERSARY!

A school reunion was held on Saturday September 27, 2008. The afternoon consisted of an open house and the reunion itself was held at the Northlands Agricom in the evening. Approximately 400 former Ross Shep alumni attended. The Class of 1975 presented the school with a framed picture of our rendition of the Thunderbird for display in their Alumni room.

WE'RE NOW 50 AND FABULOUS!!!

And that was a great reason to have a reunion - held on October 6, 2007 at Bo'diddly's Roadhouse! Although we may be 50, we know how to use our digital cameras and, more importantly, how to party. Many of the photos of this event are organized by the junior high school attended.

* Westminster * Westmount

As part of an effort to encourage alumni to mix and mingle, every one was asked, as they arrived, to supply a personal accomplishment they achieved over the past 32 years. Later these cards were randomly distributed and alumni had to find the owner of the accomplishment. Here is the list of submitted accomplishments. Can you decide who did what?

Let's move back in time...

On October 7 and 8, 2000 we held our 25th year reunion at the Ellerslie Rugby Club. Again, where possible, the photographs of the event are organized by the junior high school attended.

Ok, I admit it - I am terrible with remembering faces, especially after 40 years. Thus, I'm sure there are mistakes in the photographs above. My apologies in advance. Please mail all corrections to rob.lake@ualberta.ca.

Moving back further...

I recall a 10th year reunion that was held in October of 1985. I believe it was held at the Edmonton Inn and consisted of a Wine and Cheese get-together on Friday and a dinner/dance on Saturday. Does anyone have any photos of this event?

Keeping in touch...
