Montpelier High School alumni plan all-school reunion, July 26-27

April 25, 2024

To the community: 

Excitement is building for the MHS Alumni Roundup 2024, an all-school reunion including district-wide faculty, staff, coaches, and their families, set for July 26-27. This year, they are hosting an engaging and memorable weekend for everyone involved. With a lineup that includes a Welcome Back street party and activities at the Montpelier pool and pavilion, they’re providing the perfect setting for alumni, faculty, and staff to reconnect and forge new memories. Join us for a celebration that brings our community together, honoring the legacy and spirit of the Montpelier school district.

In 2023, unprecedented floods throughout Vermont derailed Montpelier High School's innovative plans for a reunion of all past MHS classes, including district-wide faculty, staff, and coaches for a weekend of music, food, drinks, and baseball. While we were disheartened by the cancellation, it was a necessary decision. We needed to prioritize our community’s well-being and restoration efforts. Now, we not only look forward to reuniting and celebrating with even greater enthusiasm, but also to continue supporting Montpelier’s ongoing rebuilding efforts.

Now, the MHS Alumni Committee is back at it and is determined to make this year's reunion an unforgettable success. The committee is working in partnership with Montpelier Roxbury Public Schools Partners in Education, Montpelier Alive, Elevate Youth (formerly Washington County Youth Service Bureau), and the Montpelier Recreation Department on delivering an inclusive and memorable weekend for all classes, faculty, staff, coaches, and their families.

The event kicks off on Friday, July 26, with a Welcome Back Street Party hosted by Langdon Street Tavern’s Dave Thomas (MHS Class of ’06), featuring pub food, drinks for purchase, and live music by the Gallison Hill Band. Entertainment sponsor is Bolduc Metal Recycling, owned by MHS alum, Kim Bolduc (MHS Class of ’84).

Saturday July 27 will be a day filled with family-friendly activities at the Montpelier pool and pavilion, including face-painting, a raffle, games, and swimming. Food and beer will be available for purchase from Northfield’s Good Measure Brewing, and The Sisters of Anarchy Ice Cream will be onsite scooping their famous farm-to-cone ice cream.

Tickets can be purchased at Seven Days Tickets. All MHS alums and district-wide faculty, coaches, and staff are encouraged to stay tuned for further updates by signing up on the MHS Round Up Facebook page where updates will be posted regularly.

The MHS Alumni Reunion 2024 is an opportunity for our community to reconnect and celebrate the enduring spirit of MHS. This event also serves as a fundraiser for Montpelier Roxbury Public Schools Partners in Education, a 501c3 nonprofit supporting our school district’s caregiver groups through fundraising, advocacy, and community building.
