Friday, 10/21/22

  • Noonish:  Charcoaler Drive-In El Paso.  This will be a fun afternoon of hanging out and having a burger and Lemon Dr Pepper.  Charcoaler now has an inside seating area as well as a patio.  The menu still has all the favorites that we were used to in high school.  They also now serve beer and wine.
  •  Evening:  Sergio & Irene Lewis’ Home.  Sergio & Irene have graciously offered their home as the location for our Friday night gathering.  We are excited to have such a wonderful location to mingle with fellow classmates and take in the outstanding views of the city.

Saturday, 10/22/22

  •  Morning:  Irvin High School.  A lot has changed at Irvin since we were there.  The recent remodel brought big changes in the way the school looks.  It will be a good chance to see the changes that have been made.
  • Evening:  Embassy Suites El Paso.  Our traditional dinner and dance will be at the Embassy Suites.  This location is a great centrally located space for our event.  Those staying at this hotel will have a nice short walk at the end of the evening.

Sunday, 10/23/22

  • Morning:  Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church.  (9025 Diana Drive) Fr Fred Bayler will be serving mass.
  • Morning/Afternoon:  Those still in town, we will check for a Brunch/Lunch location.

We are excited with what is set at this point, and we will also be providing information about other fun things to do while in El Paso.
