2026 75th Reunion Events


Get ready for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration – St. James Collegiate is turning 75! Join classmates and friends October 23–25, 2026, for a reunion weekend filled with laughter, connection, and school pride.


 The Gala on October 25 will cap off the festivities, and other exciting events will be announced as details are finalized. Gala tickets and accommodations discount will be announced in early 2026.

Help Make Our 75th Reunion Unforgettable!

We’re also planning two exciting fundraising events for the fall of 2025 to help cover some of the costs of next year’s gala reunion — and we need your help!

Thank You for Making Our Social a Success!

Thank you to everyone who came out to our
75th Reunion Fundraiser Social on October 18 at the St. James Legion – and to those who bought support tickets or made a donation. We had a great night of music, prizes, and memories, all while raising funds for next year’s big reunion.


A special thank-you to all the volunteers who helped plan and run the event, and to the donors and businesses who gave prizes and auction items. Your time, effort, and generosity made a real difference.


Thanks to your support, we’re one step closer to an amazing 75th Reunion celebration next year.

Join classmates for a delicious breakfast at Smitty’s, served up with a side of nostalgia! We’ll gather for a warm and welcoming morning of reconnecting, reminiscing, and raising funds to help make our 75th High School Reunion unforgettable. Friends and family are welcome!


Want to help make it happen?
We’re looking for friendly, organized volunteers to help coordinate the event – things like spreading the word, welcoming guests, and adding those extra touches that make a gathering special. It’s an easy and fun way to get involved, with support from the reunion committee.

All proceeds go toward next year’s reunion, and every pancake helps!
