All Class Picnic 2000

The 2000 All Class Picnic was held Saturday, May 20th, 2000 in the quad/circle. Click here to see pictures!


All Class Picnic 2001

Saturday, May 19th, 2001 saw the Samohi Circle/Quad filled with over 350 alums from the classes of 1928 through 2003. The sight of old friends finding one another with quick glances at name tags and faces brought frequent looks of disbelief. Seems everyone's gotten older except me! Tours of Samohi, a quick pep rally in the Greek, and hundreds of stories (out numbered by loud guffaws) filled the cool afternoon. Fresh and tasty barbequed hotdogs and hamburgers, sodas, chips and cookies filled the hungry stomachs of shorts-clad alumni. A great time was had by all.
