"After almost 30 years, we‘ve found that most of us had kept in touch with one or two people, and I began contacting the others through the two people I knew. "It was surprising how fast we were able to track down these people â€" it only took us a couple weeks to find people. For many of the people who left town, their parents are still here." *We, myself and Stephen Burkhart, who also returned to Oakville about three years ago, contacted 26 people," said Glover. "There was only one fellow who we haven‘t been able to track down." And of those contacted, 21 came. . _ Glover, who returned to Oakville just three weeks ago â€""all of us had moved away" â€" thought a class reunion would be an ideal way to find all of her old friends. The reunion, held last Saturday, proved to be so successful that the group vowed to come together again in three years‘ time to celebrate "our 50th birthdays!" said Glover. t‘s been almost 30 years since Ginny Glover had seen her old classâ€" Imates who grew up as the ‘Burgundy Drive Kids.‘ And seeing most of them for a recent weekend visit brought back a lot of fond, happy memâ€" ories resulting in renewed acquaintances.
