HAMLET — The Hamlet High School class of 1965 held its 50 year reunion June 19-20.

Classmates gathered at Hoot ‘n Holler near Hamlet on Friday night, June 19, for an informal time of fun, renewing friendships and conversation. On Saturday night, June 20, a dinner was held at the American Legion on Boyd Lake Road in Hamlet. There were about 90 people in attendance at the reunion.

Classmates enjoyed a repeating slideshow of pictures scanned from the senior annual, class reunion pictures and other photos relating to Hamlet and the class. Enlargements of clubs and sports pages from the senior annual were displayed around the room as well as enlargements of each class reunion picture.

There was a table for memorabilia and a “Memorial Table” with pictures of the 16 deceased classmates. The centerpiece on each table highlighted pages of individual senior pictures scanned from the annual and wrapped around a tall glass cylinder candle holder.
