Hamden High School 1980s reunion will be on Saturday, August 15, 2026. Sounds like a good time, but not without YOU! The amazing organizers have this to say: " hope everyone from the Hamden High Classes of 1980-1989 will join me at our GR80s Hamden High Reunion #3, at Hamden’s Town Center Park. It is on August 15 from 3-8:30 pm. Bring everyone you can gather. BYOB, bring tailgating/picnic type foods. Skillets are allowed but open flames are not. Beverages should be in cups so we don’t have broken glass to clean. Bring your own canopies and chairs to set up. Last, bring yard games.
Admission is $20. DJ Dana is fabulous and has a vast collection of eighties music to play.
If you only have an hour or two to come by then do that too. I’m sure everyone will have food and beverages to share.
Last, please dance if you are so inclined. Having a DJ is a fun part of it. We need some sing-a-longs, some line dancing and just plain joy! My DJ is a personal friend and colleague. Dana really enjoys and feeds off audience energy so let’s give her that. "
