Hello Classmates,
We are thrilled to announce that our Horace Greeley Class of ’74 50th Reunion is just around the corner! Mark your calendars for July 19-21, 2024, as we gather together to celebrate this momentous occasion. We have put together a lineup of events that we hope will make this reunion even more unforgettable that the 40th was.
Short and sweet, here’s what you need to know and do now to get ready for this weekend next summer. Your guests are welcome!!
Here’s a rundown of the planned events so far and we’ll provide you with updates via our newsletter so make sure we have your EMail address!:
• Friday Night, July 19th, 2024: We kick off the reunion weekend at the Quaker Tavern (previously known as Mullane’s Mug) in Chappaqua, NY which has become something of a traditional for all the Greeley Alumni get-togethers. Join us for a relaxed evening of reconnecting, sharing stories, and reminiscing about our high school days.
• Saturday, July 20th, 2024 Daytime: During the day, we have several options for you to choose from. We are considering a tour of our beloved high school, a refreshing Gedney Park hike, and lunch at various restaurants in the vibrant Chappaqua, Pleasantville, Mt. Kisco area. And maybe if Jerry Hayes gets it together we can have bike ride too. We want to make sure there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Please connect with us online in on our Horace Greeley High School Class of 1974 Facebook Group or feel free to reach out and connect with one of us below via phone or email.
• Saturday, July 20th, 2024 Evening: The highlight of the reunion will be the Saturday night dinner and party. Get ready to let loose, catch up with old friends, and make new memories together. The dress code for the evening is nice casual, so come dressed comfortably and ready to have a fantastic time.
• Sunday, July 21st, 2024 : Before we bid farewell, we invite everyone to enjoy a leisurely breakfast or brunch at your own pace. You can either indulge in the offerings at the hotel or explore one of the delightful local restaurants nearby. It’s a perfect opportunity to savor the last moments of our reunion before we part ways once again.
We value your input and suggestions, so if you have any ideas or recommendations for additional activities or enhancements to the planned events, please feel free to share them with us in our Horace Greeley High School Class of 1974 Facebook Group or click to phone or email one of the planners listed below. Your feedback will help us tailor the reunion to suit everyone’s preferences.
Finally, while the Reunion at this time is over a year away we kindly request that you RSVP as soon as possible to let us know if you think you will be attending. We wont hold you too it at this time but we need to get a handle on what kind of numbers we need to plan for to reserve a block of rooms in the hotel and plan the dinner party etc. We can’t wait to see each and every one of you and celebrate this incredible milestone in our lives.
Looking forward to an amazing reunion!

Update Sun, July 10: Hello Again & Happy 60th Birthday Horace Greeley Class of 1974 Classmates & Friends
As we all know, most of us are turning 60 this year. Our 60th birthday is a very special occasion. It would be fun to celebrate with friends from the past and present. It will also be fun to make new friends. It has been nice speaking with classmates and catching up with people. We have about 20 people who are on board. It would be nice to have 60 people or more. Peter and I have chosen to have the party at the Margaritaville Beach Resort in Hollywood, Florida. This is a new hotel on a beautiful beach. It is in a safe area with a 3-mile walkway along the beach. There is plenty to do, and you do not need a car.
The closest airport is Hollywood/Ft. Lauderdale. There is a shuttle bus at the airport, or you can rent a car if you prefer.
Our birthday party will be on October 28th to October 30th, 2016. You can come earlier if you wish. There may be a golf outing on Friday or Saturday. We plan to meet at the 5’oclock Somewhere bar on Friday night, then a stroll on the beach. Saturday will be a day at the beach or you could take the water taxi to South Beach and other parts of Miami. We are planning an official birthday party for Saturday evening at the hotel. They will give us a banquet room on the 11th floor if we have enough people. On Sunday, we can meet for brunch.
All rooms at the hotel have a water view (either the ocean or the intracoastal waterway) and a balcony. We have reserved a discount code for the Horace Greeley party. Our discount code is: Fins15. This code gives us 15% off the prevailing rate. All rooms are on the 11th floor and above. Suites and larger rooms are also available. There is no deposit to book your room, so we encourage you to book right away. You will be charged for the room if you cancel your reservation within 72 hours of your arrival date. You will not be charged for the room until you arrive.
To make a reservation, please call the hotel at (954) 874-4444. You can also book online.
We are providing a list of hotels in the Hollywood Beach area that are less expensive. You would have to contact these hotels directly. If interested, please call soon as these hotels seem to fill up faster.

The Class of 74 60th Birthday Bash at the Margaritaville Beach Resort in Hollywood, Florida
Dear Horace Greeley Class of 1974 Classmates,
Happy 60th birthday to most of us!!!! Turning 60 is a milestone, and we hope many of us can celebrate this special occasion together. We are planning our 60th birthday party for Friday, October 28th through Sunday, October 30th at the beautiful Margaritaville Beach Resort in Hollywood, Florida.
Please plan to join us for three (or more) days of sun and fun. There is an optional head start on Wednesday, October 26th and Thursday, October 27th. If flying, Ft. Lauderdale International Airport is the closest airport. Car rentals are available; or you can take a bus from the airport for approximately $5.00.
We are reserving a block of rooms at $229.00 per night plus Florida taxes. There is a $15.00 per day charge for beach towels and chairs. Each room at the hotel has a water view (ocean view, intracoastal waterway, or both). The rooms start on the 11th floor. The views are beautiful. All rooms have a private balcony. Parking is about $30.00 per day.
Carolyn Curto has graciously offered to organize a golf outing for Friday or Saturday.
Friday evening we plan to meet at the “License to Chill Bar” at the hotel. We are planning a midnight walk on the beach. Hollywood has one of the best boardwalks in the country (known as the “Broadwalk”). Hollywood Beach is a safe beach.
We are planning our birthday bash for Saturday evening – cocktail hour, dinner, dancing, and karaoke on the 11th floor balcony and ballroom. Sunday we are planning a recovery brunch.
Please try to tie in a mini-vacation to celebrate our 60th birthday together. Life is short. We all have a lot in common. We were lucky to go to Horace Greeley High School. Let’s celebrate life together in 2016 in Hollywood, Florida.
We are trying to get an indication of your commitment to attend this fun event by the end of February or early March. Please let us know about your commitment, so we can make the necessary arrangements for this great event. The party will cost about $125.00 to $150.00 per person.
We look forward to hearing from you soon and can’t wait to celebrate with all of you.
Sincerely,
Peter Ruppert (203-895-3202) pruppert@optonline.net

Announcing: The Class of 74 Turns 60 Years Old Bash
Hi everyone, our 40-year reunion was incredibly successful, thanks to the selfless efforts of the reunion committee and friends; everyone really enjoyed seeing each other and their spouses, and those classmates who couldn’t make the reunion were missed. We think we have a special class in this respect and we thought instead of waiting for some far off anniversary date, why not get together again sooner?! Turning 60 was unfathomable when we were shuffling back and forth between class buildings at Greeley during the early seventies, but we made it! Let’s embrace it and celebrate together at a festive destination, where we can roll in a mini vacation with a big birthday party!
We are still finalizing a time and destination, but were thinking of getting together again sometime either in April, May, September or October of 2016 for a bash down in South Florida. If you would like to help with the planning and logistics, please contact us!
For more information you can call or email Peter Ruppert (203) 895-3202 or Elaine Stoia Feldman (914) 494-6233 to find out more (or to volunteer to help out!)
Or you can join the discussion by adding your comments to the post here or on our Greeley Class of 74 Facebook Page or in our Greeley Class of 74 Facebook Group.
Laurie Harden Takes the Stage to Take Her Shot at Standup Comedy
Our old friend Laurie Harden takes the stage to take her shot at standup comedy and it all there for us to see over on YouTube. Not an easy task at all. (And I’m a featured character in it)
On another note….Keep tuned everybody I’m working on the email newsletter and there are some changes and improvements coming to our website (class directory, yearbook blurbs for what were doing now) that I’ll have out any day now and then we can get the discussion and planning going on to what this “over achieving” class of ours (Laurie Harden’s description of us) is going to do next in the way of getting together again.
We’re all looking get the conversation going about a 45th reunion, or a 60th birthday bash in 2016, or both or any other ideas for get togethers anyone might have.
By the way Amy & Tricia put together a survey taking a “retrospective” look at that weekend we all had together a few months ago and if you haven’t filled it out just click and follow this link to submit it online.

What Music Were You Listening to Back In High School?
Hey, it’s Jerrald Hayes….Do you remember the music you listened to in high school? I think we all remember “Woodstock: Music from the Original Soundtrack,” but what else were you listening to back then?
I was listening to tunes while out riding my bicycle the other day and I put together some of what I recall from back then. I can recall hanging out just outside the gym before I’m guessing what was a summer time football practice listening to somebody’s car radio playing a song by this new guy named Bruce Springsteen called “Spirit in the Night” (Or maybe it was “Blinded by the Light“? It was a long time ago.)
What do you recall? What were you listening to back then?
In addition to helping Ian Gilchrist with photographs from the period for the proverbial slideshow, Peter Ruppert has offered to put together the music soundtrack for the show. Way to step up, Peter and Ian!
Some other songs I vaguely recall…
- Moondance, by Van Morrison
- Bad, Bad Leroy Brown, by Jim Croce
- You’re So Vain, by Carly Simon
- Reelin’ In the Years, by Steely Dan
- Tiny Dancer, by Elton John
- Stairway to Heaven, by Led Zeppelin
That’s about all I can dig up right now. Please add your favorite songs below, so Peter can try to add them to the soundtrack.
