Hogan High School, Class of 1985, Birthday, Vallejo California, Spartan Pride, 40th Reunion, alumni celebration. Some bonds are forged in homerooms and hallways — and forty years later, they still hold. The Blue & White doesn't fade. It deepens. It shows up at Rellik Tavern on a Saturday night in Benicia , wraps an arm around your shoulder, and reminds you exactly who you are: a Hogan Spartan . Forever.

Hogan Class of 1984 40th Reunion @ Lucca Bar & Grill

Thank you Erinn Van Deer Meer & Hogan Class of 1984 for allowing us to party with you on your 40th Reunion at Lucca. It was a great event. Congratulations! Erinn kept it a free event (no cover) for Hogan Class of 1984 so they had a great turnout. Maurice Harper, Ron Stainer and I were at the event and we all agreed that we can keep the same format, and follow in '84's footsteps. However, the music has to end at 9 PM since Lucca is an outdoor venue. Class of 1985 wants to party past 9 PM?! Rellik Tavern provides an indoor venue that has a live band & dancing from 7:30 PM to Midnight. I spoke with the owner this past Friday. More details to follow. Hogan 1984's 40th Reunion. July 20, 2024 Hogan High School Class of 1985 Spartans: Since the Class of 1985 is spread out between Facebook, Instagram, and some in the wind (not on social media at all, or has blocked me!

Hogan 1985 Spartans @ Class of 1984's 40th Reunion

Maurice Harper, Ron Stainer, Cherrie Van Hook & J.F. Perseveranda at HHS 1984's 40th Reunion Flashback: Lucca Bar & Grill. Benicia, CA. July 20, 2024. Maurice, Ron and I were in touch with Class of 1984's organizer, Erinn (Nabong) VanderMeer so we were all invited. Cherrie happened to be in town and I asked her to drop by. Class of 1984's reunion at Lucca was a blast. They had the tables by the sidewalk reserved. These were the farthest away from the stage so it was easier to talk. Erinn had appetizers for the class reunion and kept it a free event so they had a great turnout. The only drawback was that it was an outdoor venue. Due to zoning laws, the music had to end at 9 PM I believe. Class of 1985 wants music, dancing and to party past 9 PM right?! Maurice, Ron, Cherrie & J.F. Go '85 Spartans!
