Alumni banquet set for next month


Portland’s alumni banquet is coming up next month.

Portland High School Alumni Association’s annual banquet is slated for June 21 at Wheel & Spoke Event Center in Portland. Social hour begins at 4 p.m., with the dinner to start at 5 p.m. Tickets are $20 per person and are available to Portland High School alumni and their guests.

Honored classes this year are 1975, 1970, 1965, 1960, 1955, 1950 and 1945.

“This will be the final traditional banquet because the last Portland High School graduating class of 1975 will be the honored,” explained association president Dale Wolford, a graduate of the Class of 1973. “Next year a new event will replace the alumni banquet and will serve as a way to celebrate our heritage as Panthers.”

Banquet reservation forms may be found at portlandpantherproud.com. Alumni should mail their reservations with payment to Portland High School Alumni Association, P.O. Box 218, Portland, IN 47371. The deadline is May 31.
