Red Cloud natives from around the United States and parts unknown will gather May 22-25 in this annual celebration of community centered around the annual Red Cloud High School Alumni Banquet on May 23rd. It's a time for RCHS alumni and community members to get together with old friends, reminisce about the good old days, and see how much (our how little) we've all changed. Plus, there's a lot of fun and interesting events to attend all weekend--and that doesn't even include the private gatherings organized by different graduating classes.
