NYSSA NEWS: Reunion coming up for all Nyssa classes

(The Enterprise/FILE)

It was so great to see the turnout for the 76th annual Nyssa Nite Rodeo.

The parade was great with entries ranging from four wheels (more if you count the tires on the fire and BLM vehicles) to four legs.

All around the rodeo grounds people were greeting friends, enjoying delicious food and the rodeo action.

Congratulations to the 2023 Nyssa Nite Rodeo Queen Kiya Servatius! Finally, a big thank you to the rodeo board, volunteers, sponsors and everyone involved with this event.

• Next on the calendar is the Nyssa All Class Reunion to be held June 23-26 at Nyssa School District in the auditorium, cafeteria, gym and the grounds outside the admin building.

The cost is $35 per individual graduate or school attendee. Pre-registration online has closed, but you can still register on June 23, starting at noon.

At 7 p.m. June 24, there will be a “Welcome Back” program in the auditorium, followed by a dance at 8:30.

On Saturday, June 25, breakfast will be served from 7 to 10 a.m. at the Nyssa Senior Center. The cost is $7. Class photos will be taken from 1-4 p.m. in the high school gym, with photos sold for $12.50 each, and a tri-tip dinner will be served from 5-7 p.m., for $22.50.

At 7:30 p.m. Saturday, “Semi-true Stories” will be a time for tales about classmates, teachers and life in Nyssa. This is also blue and white night, so plan your wardrobe accordingly. After the program, there will be a street dance at Bob’s Steak ’n Spirits, at Second and Main.
