RSVPs Are Live
Planning on attending? Thinking about attending? Please consider RSVPing. It helps us gauge who has, at least, tentative plans on joining us, which in turn helps us plan better.

La La LAAA!
In 2019, some former band members started planning a “Band Reunion” for Summer 2020, because 20 year reunions were popping up for a lot of us and we realized that most of the people we wanted to see were in the band and that the people we wanted to see weren’t necessarily all in our… Continue reading La La LAAA!

Most resorts… Continue reading Beyond the Casino: Red Rock and The Valley of Fire
The More, The Merrier!
We’re trying our best to make sure as many LRHS alumni are in the know about this reunion. With many people taking a step back from social media, it’s been harder to slide into people’s DMs on Instagram or get a response through Facebook Messenger. If you’re still in touch with our fellow band, chorus,… Continue reading The More, The Merrier!
Dam, That’s Amazing.
The Hoover Dam is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the area. A mere 39 miles from the Strip (~45 minute trip, based on traffic), this iconic location is a great way to get out of town and enjoy the beauty of the area. Assuming it’s not July or August. You really shouldn’t… Continue reading Dam, That’s Amazing.
Gambling?! How do I do that?!
