All-Class All-Friends Reunion Takes Place on July 27

Join the Minnetonka Alumni Association on Saturday, July 27, 2024 from 4-10 p.m. at the All-Class All-Friends Reunion in Downtown Excelsior for a day filled with fun, friendship and fantastic food!

The first All-School All-Class Reunion (as it was called at the time) was held in July 2002 to honor the 50th anniversary of Minnetonka High School. It brought more than 3,000 alumni together to celebrate the school community and raise money for a Fine Arts Endowment. The event was so successful in both building community and raising money to support the District that the Minnetonka Alumni Association decided to hold one every four years.

“I’m thrilled to welcome everyone to this year’s All-Class All-Friends Reunion,” said Marietta Jacobsen ‘70, President of the Minnetonka Alumni Association. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with old friends, make new ones and support our beloved teachers and students in the Minnetonka Public Schools community.”

La Asociación de Antiguos Alumnos de Minnetonka, una organización sin ánimo de lucro 501(c)(3), se dedica a apoyar a las Escuelas Públicas de Minnetonka y a la comunidad de antiguos alumnos. Los fondos recaudados en la Reunión de Todas las Promociones y Todos los Amigos se destinarán a:

  • Apoye el programa de becas para docentes de la Fundación de las Escuelas Públicas de Minnetonka en los ámbitos de las bellas artes, la ciencia y la tecnología, y el bienestar de los alumnos.
  • Organizar futuros eventos para toda la comunidad, como el almuerzo anual de entrega de los Premios de Antiguos Alumnos de Minnetonka.

By attending, you help to support continued excellence within the Minnetonka Public School District and strengthen the broader alumni community.
