It's Official, 

Fall 2026 Coffee & Conversation is definatly a GO

Coffee & Conversation

Thursday, October 22nd 2026. Meet up with classmates and friends from the TUHS class of 1961 at PANERA BREAD. Meeting will be called to order around 9:00 AM but come early and stay late.  The no host event is a celebration of the 15th anniversary of our 50th Reunion. You don't need a slide rule/calculator to figure out that's 65 years since we left TUHS.

The PANERA BREAD is located at 1825 E. Guadalupe Rd, Tempe, Arizona. A big question, will there be a 65 year Reunion? This event will be it!

P.S. We usually "pass the hat" for tips for the staff at Panera that puts up with us.
