CHS Class of ’63 Will Reminisce at 50-year Class Reunion

Colton High School’s (CHS) class of 1963 will commemorate its 50-year reunion Oct. 19 when fellow Yellowjackets reunite from 6 p.m. to midnight at the Riverside Marriott Hotel & Resort, located at 3400 Market St. in Riverside. Additionally, a no-host reception will take place on Oct. 18 from 5 to 9 p.m. at Heroes Bar and Grill, 3397 Mission Inn Ave., Riverside. This year’s Colton High alumni committee put in extra time and volunteer effort to make the 50-year reunion extra special. On Friday, Oct. 18 at 12:30 p.m. there will be a tour of the Colton High campus by Victor Schiro, assistant principal, followed immediately with a no-host lunch at the Colton El Burrito. Other activities include tours of the famous Mission Inn on Saturday, and a Sunday Brunch at the Mission Inn (reservations and payment are required in advance for the tour and brunch). The 50-year reunion is a milestone that deserves to be celebrated and shared among all of the 1963 alumni. To do this, the reunion committee is asking for all classmates to help spread the word to old friends. Admission tickets for the sensational dinner/dance at the Riverside Marriott are $75 by the Sept. 30 deadline. Payment should be submitted to Lorraine (Lopez) Casey, CUHS 50th Reunion, PO Box 63, Colton, CA 92324.
