The Atwood-Hammond High School Class of 1981 celebrated their 40th class reunion on Saturday, Oct. 16. Thirteen members of the class met at Rajah Memorial Park for a photo opt and take a look at the pavers that have been laid in honor of the high school.

The class members were impressed with the park and the fantastic work done by Dale and Jorena Hammel in laying the pavers. They look forward to more events happening at Rajah Park.

Following their time at Rajah Park, 21 class members met at the Arthur Fire House to reminisce about the past 40 years and what has transpired over these years.

Word has it that the class members enjoyed catching up with one another.
