40th Celebration: A Ruby Reunion

Thank you to all OCNHS Class of 1970 graduates who made the 40th Celebration: A Ruby Reunion a big success.

The entire committee did a splendid job of orchestrating a reunion of this magnitude. The enormous success of the party reflects a painstaking preparation from the choice of venue, orderly registration, excellent food, great music, and a very well thought out program to its outstanding execution. We appreciate each volunteer's time and support. Each one worked very hard. We've done something extraordinary!

Congratulations! Our dream come true - and we’ve made it happen!



The whole event is a demonstration of the breed of students produced by OCNHS from the organizing committee and to all Batch 70 alumni who attended the reunion. Thank you all for a beautiful 3-day affair which we will always remember and be proud of.



To all our precious guests, loved ones, families and friends - "Our Thank You" just doesn't seem like enough. We'll remember all of you with warmest thanks and our deepest appreciation.

Again, Congratulations!
