Welcome to the South Western Senior High Class Of 1961 web site. We are proud to be the first graduating class of South Western Senior High School. Try to remember the anticipation you felt as you were about to enter the doors of this beautiful new school in September 1959. We hope this website brings back some fond memories of your two years at South Western.

We will hold our 59 Year Reunion at Inn 94 on Thursday, September 17, 2020, which is actually a week earlier. When I tried to book Thursday, September 24, 2020 - which is the date we thought it would be if we kept it the same week, I was told that because of Leap Year many  of the yearly events are moved one week later.  We are very lucky to be able to be able to reserve the week prior to that instead.

Our 60th Reunion will more than likely be held on a Saturday evening at another location as Inn 94 will not allow evening reunions at their location due to the amount of business they have on weekends. At that reunion we will also have an official Class Photo taken for sale to Class members.

Today we accepted an offer from Class Creator to extend our website for an additional three (3) years for $385, a savings of $110. We typically seek donations in September to cover these costs, but we are asking members to donate now. If we get enough donated to cover this expense, we will not ask for donations until September 2023.

Donations in the form of a check, payable to Dawn Gross, can be mailed to her at her home, 1025 Pearl Drive, Hanover, PA 17331. Thank you for your support.
