A: Saturday, September 28, 2024, 6 pm–midnight (plus likely afterparties)
Additional events, such as a Friday night bar meetup and a Sunday afternoon tour of Saratoga High, are being planned.
Q: Where is the reunion taking place?
A: The reunion will be at the Hotel Valencia Santana Row—the same location as our 30-year reunion.
355 Santana Row, San Jose, CA, 95128
855-596-3396
Q: Santana Row is pretty congested. Where do we park?
A: Self-parking is available throughout Santana Row in surrounding garages, particularly those behind the hotel.
Valet parking, for an additional charge, is available at the hotel.
Overnight self-parking requires a pass, available from the hotel's valet and front desk staff.
Q: What if I want to stay over night at the hotel?
A: We've reserved a block of rooms at the hotel for the night of the main event.
Q: How do I get tickets?
Q: I'm worried I won't be able to afford a ticket.
A: We care much more about seeing you at the reunion than we do about the dollars. We have reduced-price tickets available for those for whom the regular prices are too much of a stretch. Just contact us.
And if you're interested in sponsoring tickets for your classmates in need, learn about sponsorship opportunities.
Q: Can I still attend if I didn't buy a ticket ahead of time?
A: Yes! We expect to have walk-up tickets available at the door. But the earlier you buy your tickets, the cheaper they will be.
Q: I didn't graduate with the class of '84, but I feel close to it. Can I attend the reunion?
A: Yes! The more the merrier. Friends, spouses, teachers, folks who went through Redwood with us, but then went to a different high school—everyone's welcome! Just get in touch or buy a ticket!
Q: What if I have questions or ideas, or I want to get involved?
A: We want as many people involved as possible! Get in touch with us.
Q: I'd like to receive communications about the reunion. How do I get on the list?
A: Send us your contact info. Include your name (including the name you used in high school), your email address, and, if possible, your mobile number and street address.
Q: Would you please stop pestering me about the reunion?
A: Of course! Get in touch with us, and we'll take you off the list. (But we still hope you'll come.)
Q: Who are you people?
A: The same faces you saw every day in the first half of the '80s. 😀
