HHS Class of 1964
60th Reunion Notice
Here’s the news you’ve been waiting for. We have a date and place for the 60th Reunion of the HHS Class of 1964. The date is Tuesday and Wednesday, September 24 and 25, 2024. The place is Capt Hiram’s Resort in Sebastian, Florida. We picked this Resort as many other HHS classes have used it for their reunions and were pleased with its central location, being situated on the water (Indian River), the amenities the resort offers for a reunion group, and the price for rooms and meals. We decided on late September as the weather is not as oppressive then, it not being peak-season for this area, and the prices are more favorable. Yes, September is still the middle of hurricane season, but we think the hurricane gods will look favorably on our class for these few days as we paid our dues enduring many hurricanes while growing up in South Florida. The “we” above are the members of the 60th Reunion Committee: Nancy Lundblom Blizzard and Tim (’65), Jack Krouskroup, Nancy Berthiaume Rusinak and Vince (Vinny). We are still workiing on the activities for the primary reunion days of September 24 & 25, and additional activities for those who might arrive early on the night of Monday, the 23rd, and for who will leaving late in the morning of Thursday, the 26th. Members of other HHS classes are welcome to attend and help us celebrate our 60th Reunion.
Nancy Lundblom Blizzard worked with Capt Hiram’s Resort and got us excellent room rates for the nights of the 23rd, 24th and 25th of September, 2024. The special room rates apply to both Capt Hiram's Resort and the Best Western Plus, which is affiliated with the Resort and located nearby. You don't have to stay in either of these hotels nor be there for both days to attend the reunion. There are no fees: the reunion will all be "pay as you go."
Regarding the hotel accommodations, we have reserved rooms with special group rates for the reunion at Capt Hiram’s Resort and at and beach club across the street from the hotel. The Best Western Plus is nice and a relatively new hotel affiliated with Capt Hiram's, and other than the breakfast that is included and a small pool, it only provides basic ammenities: it is located about 3/10th of a mile (short drive) from Capt Hiram’s. Parking is free and internet is provided at both hotels.
