Maine West Class of 1975 — Help Make 50th Reunion Legendary!

Our 50th Reunion is happening October 10–12, 2025, and we want to make it unforgettable and affordable for every Warrior who wants to come home.

Even with ticket sales, the cost of a ticket doesn’t begin to cover the infrastructure and behind-the-scenes work it takes to pull off a weekend like this — and that’s where you come in.

We’re raising funds to help cover:

  • Getting the word out via postcards, emails, and text messages to help us reach every corner of the world — and store those connections in a central database
  • Reunion event costs (venue, music, decorations, and surprise touches!)
  • Subsidized tickets for classmates who need a little help
  • Memory-making extras like name tags, digital memory books, and a special memorial tribute honoring classmates we’ve lost

We’ve come a long way thanks to a small, mighty crew of volunteers — and now we’re asking for a little help from the rest of the Warrior family to take it to the next level.

Whether you can chip in $10, $50, or more — every dollar helps us bring more Warriors together and honor the amazing people and memories that shaped us.

Thank you
– The Maine West Class of ’75 Reunion Team

What Happens If We Have Extra?
Any leftover funds from reunion donations will be gifted to the Warrior Fund — a special account that helps current Maine West students who are facing financial hardship.

The Warrior Fund supports students whose needs aren’t covered by Free and Reduced Lunch eligibility. Helping with the cost of a prom ticket, yearbook, or sports equipment like shoes and gloves, this fund helps to make sure every Warrior has access to the full high school experience — no matter their financial situation.

So even if you can't join us in October, your donation still pays it forward in the best way.
