Reunion 45 Date and Location

The Reunion Committee thought that we better have another party since we "aint gettin" any younger. Next year, 2018, will mark our 45th year since we graduated and that deserves a big celebration. Mostly our 45th reunion will be a repeat from the 40th. According to a recent alumni survey, an overwhelming majority asked that it be in Port A near the beach and in October again.

Our biggest challenge is with Port A so torn up from hurricane Harvey. We have been in contact with many venues but not one could book us at this time. Most are saying that it will be Jan before they will start booking again. Please bear with us as we make plans for next year knowing that they are tentative at this point and will be confirmed as soon as we can.
Here it comes....wait for it....wait.....ok

REUNION 45: Friends for Life, Carroll Class of 73, will be held in Port A on October 5-6, 2018

There you have it Tiger friends. Once we are able to confirm a venue location we will do our very best to keep that date. There will be a Friday night beach event and a Saturday night party like never before. There will be accommodations on site as well. Just know that the Reunion Committee is working hard to make this event incredibly fun  and affordable for all.

Go Tigers!

Finding Alumni the Smart Way


Contact everyone alumni you can find and get them plugged in to the Facebook group and this blog. Make some calls, (like Maxwell Smart) send some emails, go by their house, or GOOGLE them. This is the biggest challenge at every reunion...finding alumni.

Host a mini-reunion in your area for lunch or dinner and get people connected for the big event in 2018. If we start now, we should have a great attendance.

Ready, set, go.......

REUNION 45 is a repeat!

The results are in and....its a repeat of reunion 40! Thank you for taking the class survey for our upcoming reunion 2018. We got a lot of great input from class members as to what they would like for the next reunion. If you attend Reunion 40 then you know what an incredibly fun weekend it was. The committee received tons of compliments from last time. Here is where we are in the process.

  • Reunion Committee 40 re-upped and said yes to serving again. Of course we will need help from you
  • The location has been set but we are working with the Sandcastle Event Center on a date in October most likely
  • The big tent for the Friday beach party will be reserved
  • A DJ or live band will be booked. The survey was tied on those two things so the committee will decide.
  • Food vendors will be interviewed and selected.
As you can see it is already getting exciting for the event in 2018. The committee is pumped and ready to get in done.
