Attention fellow Shawnee High School 1974 classmates: You were part of the first class to go all four years at the (then) brand new high school and graduate in June 1974. Although 50 years have passed, you still have the opportunity to be first when it comes to another class milestone. The 50th reunion of the Class of 1974 will take place on Friday and Saturday, Sept. 27 and 28. There will be a tailgating event at Shawnee on Friday, Sept. 27 as the Renegades take on arch-rival Lenape at 6 p.m. And yes, the Shawnee-Lenape game is no longer on Thanksgiving Day, but is still a conference battle of neighborhood schools. An informal dinner/social event will be held Saturday, Sept. 28 from 6-10 p.m. at the Medford Village Country Club on Himmelein Road. There is no cost for the tour/tailgating/football game, but classmates must RSVP by August 1. Contact classmates Patricia Bisignano D’Andrea at [email protected] or Debby Norton Terry (904) 708-7779 to reserve your spot for these memorable events.

For information visit the township’s Facebook page or contact the Clerk’s Office at (609) 654-2608 ext. 330.
