BELLWOOD – The Bellwood-Antis High School class of 1965 held its 50th anniversary reunion on July 24 and 25. The event began with an informal mixer at the Bavarian Hall, Altoona, on Friday evening.

On Saturday night, a dinner and dance was held at the Bellwood Fire Hall with music from the period provided by

Matt Caporuscio.

Souvenir mugs and booklets were given to each classmate. Door prizes were awarded.

A booklet prepared by Darlene (Vandevander) Gregoire listing the deceased members of the class and their obituaries was shown on a memorial table.

After expenses were paid, the class donated $800 to the Bellwood-Antis School District Foundation to be used for teacher grants.

The class is planning a 70th birthday party in the summer of 2017. Watch the BAHS class of 1965 website for information.
