Re: Web page for our classmates. Please use the following web address http://classreport.org/usa/md/bethesda/bcchs/1971/
that will direct you to a web page created for our class of 1971. It is easy to access and when you get there you can add your personal information.
I encourage all of classmates to go to this site and register. Please use this site as a way to contact your old classmates and see what everyone is up to. We have classmates across the globe and it is interesting to see where we went and what we did after high school. The web page also has information about our upcoming reunion that will be held in September, 2007. So please register on this site and refer back to it often to see what is going on. See you at the reunion!!

Merry Christmas to all. This will be our 35th year as alumni - where did we all go? What a group. We lived through such a wonderful time in history.

Hi, I am interested in contacting a 1971 graduate whose name is Patricia (Patti) Beathum (could be Beetham).
My name is Forrest (Woody) Nutter and we were friends our freshman and sophomore years (1971-1973) at the University of Maryland. Can anyone help me locate Patti ?? Thanks, Forrest W. Nutter, Jr.

Class of '71. I have just received the B-CC book. Please don't let me miss the reunion for 1971; I will do my best to attend even though I've lived in England for 20 years. I wish I had made more friends at B-CC.

I attended BCC in 68-69 and then moved to CA. Would have graduated in 1971. Any reunions for 71 planned?
Bill Bloomquist, 11/9/02
haven't seen the new campus yet, but I am grateful the original Ad building is still there. Still waiting to see if the '71 class is going to have a reunion. I would like to see how y'all are doing. I am still in AV and own my own biz. Since projectors are a thing of history, I had to switch to computers. I look forward to hearing from my classmates and hope you all are well.

I stumbled on this website while searching for some elementary school reading lists...saw a site for Chevy Chase. I grew up in Chevy Chase and graduated from BCC in 1971. I am now married and live in Birmingham, Alabama. I work for Vulcan Materials Co.-nation's largest aggregate producer. Saw the new school picture-looks fabulous. I'm planning a trip back east later this month and may plan to drive through Wash DC area. Have a question....is there any kind of upcoming reunion?

Getting the zipcode for an application I am filling out. Glad to see you finally got a new building. Your [B-CC HS] website is wonderful. See you soon. Julie

Class of 1971 50th Reunion on Saturday, October 2, 2021
What a year to celebrate our 50th B-CC reunion! With the end of the COVID-19 pandemic in sight, thankfully, we had lots to celebrate. It had been 8 years since our last Class of ’71 gathering when most of us turned 60. With vaccines readily available and everything beginning to open up completely, a questionable date a year before was then solid: October 2, 2021.
We had our deposit down for some time on the Chevy Chase Village Hall (Oct. 2), and we hired an event planner to make sure everything went off without a hitch. We also had secured the Rooftop at the Henri at Pike and Rose, 11870 Grand Park Ave, in North Bethesda for our Friday Night gathering (Oct 1).
We had established several levels of participation that were singled out for recognition (except those who wanted to be anonymous) in the program and at the reunion.
Contribution Levels:
• Baron $2,500 or more
• Platinum $1,000-$2,499
• Gold $500-$999
• Silver $250-$499
• Blue & Gold $71 up to $249.
We are continuing to focus on finding as many classmates as possible. Please let us know other classmates’ email addresses and/or phone numbers.
We are on two Facebook pages: “Bethesda Chevy Chase High School class of 1971” and “B-CC H.S. Class of 1971.” We are also monitoring the websites “Classmates.com” and “Classreport.org”. If you have questions, or just want to say hello, or need assistance to join us at future reunions, you can also reach us at: BCCGrad71@gmail.com.
