Celebrating High School Graduation 70 Years Later

ST. LOUIS PARK, Minn. (WCCO) -- Not many people can say they're going to their 70th class reunion. But the St. Louis Park High School Class of 1941 did just that.

The crew was singing the school's fight song although some of them forgot the words. But who could blame them. The reunion was held at Bunny's Restaurant where about 25 classmates got reacquainted with each other.

"I think it's more fun as the years go by. For one thing, you stop being competitive and bragging about all your achievements. We're just glad to be here," said Mary Jo Mathison, Class of '41.

The classmates said they're looking forward to their 75th reunion.
