Greenwood Class of 1988
20th Reunion
2008 marks 20 years since we graduated from Greenwood. Given the high school shenanigans followed by a few blurry years at Drury, I’m more than a little surprised to be writing this.

The weekend of October 3rd - 5th will be Greenwood’s annual homecoming weekend with a soccer match (excuse me if I choke a little on the idea of soccer) Friday night and other activities throughout the weekend. You can find out more about the homecoming festivities at Greenwood’s website:

Now is the time to come together and share what you’ve been up to and reflect back on your time at Greenwood. Join classmates and their families Saturday evening October 4th on the mezzanine of the Springfield Brewing Company. We’ll gather at 5:00 for drinks and hors devours. Full menu service is available for dinner.
A very wise philosopher once wrote:
“I’m growing older but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
Let those winds of time blow over my head
I’d rather die while I’m living - Than live while I’m dead”
Jimmy Buffett
Ok, maybe Jimmy Buffett is no “wise philosopher” but there is merit to these lines.
So… What do you say Class of 88?
Are there still faint echoes of the “ROWDIES” bouncing around the halls of Greenwood?
Are you refusing to grow up as you grow older?
Like me, have the winds of time eliminated the hair on the top of your head?
Join in the revelry the first weekend in October and find out.
