Organizers are working on final details for most events, but new ones are still being added as the Norwell District Secondary School 75th anniversary party, May 8 to 10, continues to take shape.
A Sunday morning “Breakfast Bash” on May 10, with proceeds to the Norwell Breakfast Club and Mothers Against Drunk Driving, has been enhanced with the addition of musical entertainment, says Betty Douglas of the organizing committee.
“On Sunday morning at the breakfast we have Dan Bieman from 101.7 The One, who will be broadcasting live his Rockn’ Retro Show,” said Douglas.
A silent auction and bake sale has also been added to the slate of activities at a dinner dance planned at the Palmerston arena on Saturday night.
Proceeds from the silent auction will go to the Norwell Lifeskills program to be used for Sports activities including training, bussing and entry fees. The school is currently accepting donations of auction items.
The dance features a three-course meal catered by Alex Petter and music by Norwell alumni group The Neil Murray Band.
Other activities at the reunion include a golf tournament, Minto Culture Bus Tours a Theatre Norwell presentation of Shrek the Musical, child-friendly movies at the Norgan Theatre and a reunion tent on Saturday afternoon at the Palmerston Lions Park featuring local bands and a barbecue.
Douglas said organizers are also looking for volunteers to help out with jobs like cleanup and working the door at events.
