The OHS Alumni Association will have a booth at Oswegofest, and it will be located at the east shelter house in the park.
Mini-Reunions will be held throughout the day to give everyone an opportunity to visit with your fellow alumni classmates.
All alumni are encouraged to stop by the booth to verify their mailing address and make any necessary changes.
A raffle will be held to help raise money for the cost of the annual reunions. This year’s items are: a quilt donated by Julie Wimp, a gourd donated by Cheryl Lewis and a Kansas Hunting or Fishing License donated by Labette County Clerk, Linda Schreppel.
This year’s reunion is being dedicated to a well-known alumnus who died in December 2007, Jerry Barnard.
