Clayton Pioneer
Eagles from around the country will return to the nest on Saturday, April 25, to celebrate Clayton Valley High School’s 50th anniversary.
The Spring Gala, the concluding event of a year-long celebration, will begin at 6 p.m. at Centre Concord. All members of the Clayton Valley community are invited, including alumni, retired faculty and staff, current parents and any others with ties to CVHS.
A visual arts gallery with pieces by current students and alumni, as well as a photographic history of notable alumni, will be on display as guests walk down the red carpet. People can reconnect with old friends during the cocktail hour.
Live entertainment will be performed by CV alumni and students as the academic and artistic talents of Clayton Valley are showcased. Performances will include musical theater, classical music, creative storytelling, vocal arrangements and an improv competition between alums and students.
The Master of Ceremonies will be Sue Kwon, Class of ’86, a Consumer Watch reporter for CBS 5 Eyewitness News and host of “Bay Sunday.” Kwon and long-time faculty members will present awards to accomplished alums who have found success in the worlds of business, education and the arts.
An online collection of Eagle lore, photos and videos has been established at www.cvhs50.com. Alumni are invited to provide updates on what they have been doing since graduation.
Ted Meriam, Class of ’01, is the 50th anniversary chair. Spring Gala tickets are $25. Purchase online or call Ted.
