Class Reunions 2026
Whatever stage of life, it's good to reconnect with people who are part of your story. We support five-year reunion gatherings by hosting a picnic Friday evening and breakfast Saturday morning where groups can reserve tables to gather informally. We also help class coordinators communicate with classmates, provide space free of charge in the school, and share ideas for gatherings.
Details about reunions for classes ending in 6 and 1 during Homecoming 2026 will be added below as we receive them. Unless other wise noted "Friday" and "Saturday" dates are October 16 or 17.
If you have questions or would like to help with your class reunion, contact alumni@easternmennonite.org or phone 540-236-6025. Erin Kennedy Hess is ready to help!
Your advance registration is especially helpful as we prepare food for the Homecoming Picnic, Friday at 5 p.m., and Homecoming Breakfast, Saturday at 8:30 a.m.
