REDWOOD ALUMNI ASSOCIATION...WEBSITE AND DIRECTORY!
If you haven't joined the Redwood Alumni's website, you should ... www.redwoodalumni.org. This site is much more active than our class site, has teacher profiles where you can leave memories of your favorite teachers, read about distinguished alumni in the Avenue of Giants and Athletic Hall of Fame,  and look up other classes besides our own. Minimum needed to join is your email address. Thanks! And thank you to all who have already joined!

OUR '61 WEBSITE
Special thanks to those of you who made redwood61.org donations. There is a good chance that we will not renew it when the five year term expires. If you could transfer your information or update your information on the www.redwoodalumni.org website above, we will still be able to reach you. We can send email blasts to just our class but you will have access to all classes and teachers. THANK YOU!

NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN UNTIL OCTOBER 1, 2020 FOR THE NEXT ROUND OF DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI... ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME, AVENUE OF GIANTS!
Our class has a great representation in the Athletic Hall of Fame but it's time to nominate other distinguished classmates for the Avenue of Giants. You can get all the details and nomination forms on www.redwoodalumni.org.

REDWOOD ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME  INDUCTED 1959 SWIM TEAM (2016)!
Each year the Redwood Alumni select distinguished alulmni for the Avenue of Giants (AOG) and the Redwood Athletic Hall of Fame (RAHOF). For the first time, they have chosen a team and have given the honor to the very first team at Redwood to win an MCAL championship...the 1959 Swim Team coached by Paul Daly. Our classmates on the team include Jeff Skov, Keith VonBorstal, Paul Burgess, Mike Spencer and Dick Chambers! Congratulations! Our next banquet will be March 14, 2020 at McInnis Golf Club Restaurant. Details will be on the redwoodalumni.org site.

IMPORTANT LINKS
redwoodalumni.org is constantly updating information. It has a new format (using Class Creator, the same host as our '61 site!) You can see information from all classes, photo gallery, teacher profiles and more. You can leave "In Memory" messages for classmates and teachers, connect privately with anyone who has joined, and find ways to give back to Rewood: participate in activities, make donations, volunteer, make nominations for the 2021 distinguished alumni in the Avenue of Giants and the Athletic Hall of Fame.
