Hey Rams! Can you believe it’s been 50 years since we left Millikan High School?

Last updated: Apr 4, 2023

To remember our high school years together, the Class of 1973 Reunion Committee has planned a great reunion celebration.

When

September 30, 2023

Location

Avenue of the Arts Hotel in Costa Mesa
3350 Avenue of the Arts (map)

The hotel is across the street from South Coast Plaza Mall, and John Wayne Orange County Airport is within 5 miles for those of you coming into Southern California. All reunion events are within walking distance from the hotel. 

Schedule

The reunion begins with a no-host reception at 6:00PM, followed by a three course steak dinner (chicken and veg options available) with wine included.  It will be a great evening to see old friends and remember our time together at Millikan.

Optional events

In addition to the reunion itself, a welcoming happy hour reception on September 29th, and a brunch on October 1st are also being planned depending on the number of reunion signups.

We're also embarking on a 5-day cruise from Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas for October 3-8 (details below). From our recent survey responses, we already have 20 parties interested in going on the cruise.

We can’t wait to see YOU! Tell your friends and spread the word. Those who are Class of 73 adjacent are also warmly invited!  It will be the best Class of 1973 reunion ever!
