Hogan Class of 1985 40th Reunion: Who's in?

  Looking at July 2025 Here's what I posted in our Facebook Group: Hello '85 Spartans! Cherrie Van Hook, Maurice Harper, Ron R Stainer and I attended Hogan '84's 40th Class Reunion this past Saturday at Lucca in Benicia. We're looking to do the same to keep costs at the very minimum (if not free). Would a July 2025 40th Reunion work for you? We've identified July 12 as a potential date for the 40th Reunion. We also are looking into Lucca in Benicia, but our contact has not even reached out to the owner yet (she is on vacation). So hang tight. Date and location are still TBD (To Be Determined). This is just to "get the ball rolling."
