The Cortez Journal
When longtime friends who graduated from Montezuma-Cortez High School in 1974 missed seeing certain classmates at reunions, they started holding “The Country Reunion.” This year’s get-together, which also includes non-classmates, is Saturday, July 18, at the American Legion.
The committee of two, Cheryl Dean and Terry Click Kimbrel, created the event “for all of us who hung out together in the ’70s, and remember the rodeos, fairs, parties, dragging Main, and stopping at Dairy Queen and the old Safeway parking lot.”
Doors open at 4 p.m., followed by a catered dinner, music and dancing. The cost is $20 per person with the meal, and $10 per person without the meal, to cover the costs of dinner, a DJ, and rental of the American Legion hall.
Save the Date postcards went out earlier this year, and invitations were recently mailed for participants to make reservations. The duo can be contacted at 970-759-3455 (Cheryl) or 307-575-5669 (Terry) for more information.
