NEWS! On Saturday, October 14, 2023 sixty-four members of Waynesboro's Class of '66 gathered at the Waynesboro Knights of Columbus Hall to celebrate their 75th birthday. The meal, catered by Gus & Ted's, was enjoyed by 110 attending. The AFS Exchange Student from Turkey returned to Waynesboro to be here with his classmates. Melih Ozcan Fereli, who stayed with the Harold E. Zercher family during the 1965-1966 school year, returned to attend his fifth reunion since leaving Waynesboro in 1966. Melih addressed the class before the festivities began. Class President, Jeff Rock was Toastmaster. He led the evening by singing "Happy Birthday to Us". Class member, Rev. Barry Rowe, Richfield, PA, offered the invocation. Sally Yingst Manning was recognized for her years of serving on the Reunion Committee. Class members travelled from Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama, Misssouri, plus Turkey and all over the state of Pennsylvania. A power point memory show was playing all evening, including the 94 deceased class members and pictures from all past reunions. Music was enjoyed through the system at the venue. Committee members were Jeff Rock, Amos Bakner, Bill & Yvonne (Sease) Pfoutz, Sandy (Mackley) Shook, Angie (McKissick) Summers, Mary Ellen (Beamer) Sheffler, Donna (Buhrman) Myers - head decorator, Don Kauffman, Jeff Funk, John Ingels, and Sally (Yingst) Manning.

Our former Exchange Student from Turkey, Melih, recently visited Waynesboro.
He was on his way to Ann Arbor, Michigan to attend his son's college
graduation. While in town, he visited with Mrs. Bushman, and then
stopped by the home of Lynn MacBride, who lives near Sally Manning.
We have a small gallery of photos of Melih and friends while in Waynesboro.
