2014 All Class Reunion
Labor Day Weekend


Wondering if any of these graduates might make it!


Classes of  '64 &'65 Celebrating 50th

On the same night as the All Class Reunion, the Classes of 1964 and 1965 will be celebrating a more formal joint reunion to mark their 50th years since graduation. Their event will be held on Saturday night at Racebrook Country Club, but they have a full weekend of activity planned, and they even have their own website and Facebook group  with full details.

The 15th Annual Derby All-Class Reunions will be held SATURDAY OF LABOR DAY WEEKEND AUGUST 30, 2014. Originally conceived by the Derby Cultural Commission it has been growing since. The event was originally held in conjunction with Derby Day in June, 2000. In 2001, it was held on a Friday night in combination with a Derby High football game before moving to its current Labor Day weekend format in 2002. In the early years, each decade had a separate venue in the downtown area, and alumni were encouraged to walk back and forth to the various sites to meet with old friends.

This year, there are only two venues - Classes up to 1979 can meet at the Derby Elks Lodge and 80 forward can meet at Archie Moore’s. Both are located on Elizabeth Street but everyone is welcome to “move about the city” and check out all establishments downtown.

“Suggested” meeting time is 7pm but all are welcome downtown earlier to socialize, have dinner or even enjoy the Art Gallery or maybe even take a Dance Lesson (call ahead). This was not meant to take the place of each class’ own reunion but if a class is not having one then the chance a person going out that (same) night each year and knowing someone increases.

Facebook users can also search Derby (CT) Memories and Reunions for up to date information. For past photos and stories please follow these links:

The 2012 and 2013 Reunions were also broadcast live, and you can see some of the recordings as they took place at these links:  2012 and 2013.
