We are excited to share the **preliminary lineup of events** for reunion weekend, happening **August 7-8, 2026**. This weekend is all about reconnecting, laughing until your cheeks hurt, swapping stories from then and now, and celebrating the amazing people who made the **Class of 1986** what it was and still is. The primary goal of the committee is to bring as many classmates together as possible with reasonable costs.  This year’s theme is **’80s Remix**, and the playlist is already sounding pretty good. ## Friday, August 7, 2026 ### Informal Fun![2026-0807-PubCrawl](https://phsclassof86.us/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Posts/2026-0807-PubCrawl.png?width=200&height=300&name=2026-0807-PubCrawl.png) Friday night will kick things off with a relaxed, come-as-you-are vibe. The **PHS Hall of Fame Ceremony** induction will be held that evening, and we would also love to keep the energy going with some informal class gatherings during and afterward. Nothing too structured. Nothing too fancy. Just a chance to find your people, raise a glass, and ease into reunion weekend one stop at a time. Think of it as the opening track on the reunion mixtape. Casual, fun, and the perfect way to get the weekend started.  Where would you like to go next? Of course, we will all probably end up at the Bow...because, well. It's the BOW, right? #### *6:00 to 8:00 - Cerebella Winery* We are kicking off the evening at Cerebella with an informal gathering with an evening of your choice of beverages and fun snacks. Time to mix, mingle and reconnect! We have some fun things planned for the evening, but we don't want to give it all away just yet! More details will be shared as plans are finalized, but for now, mark your calendar and plan to join in for a laid-back evening of catching up and making new memories. ## Saturday, August 8, 2026 ### ![2026-0808_PoolParty](https://phsclassof86.us/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Posts/2026-0808_PoolParty.png?width=200&height=300&name=2026-0808_PoolParty.png)’80s Remix Saturday is where the reunion really turns up the volume. #### 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM - Pool Party at Birch Creek Golf Course Grab your sunglasses, your favorite summer gear, and your reunion spirit because Saturday afternoon is all about fun in the sun. We will be gathering at **Birch Creek Golf Course** for a **Pool Party** from **12:00 PM to 4:00 PM**. This is your chance to relax, hang out, and enjoy the day with classmates in a casual setting. **Food and beverages will be on your own**, so come ready to kick back, mingle, and soak in the good vibes.  It is the perfect daytime hangout before we trade poolside chatter for dance floor throwbacks later that evening. Swimsuits are optional. Wait, that could inspire misbehavior! IF you want to jump in, you must wear a swimsuit, everyone else, clothing is NOT optional! #### ![2026-0808_Dinner](https://phsclassof86.us/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Posts/2026-0808_Dinner.png?width=200&height=300&name=2026-0808_Dinner.png)6:00 PM  - ’80s Remix Semi-Formal Dinner When the sun goes down, it is time to turn the reunion dial straight to awesome.  Join us at **6:00 PM** for our **’80s Remix Semi-Formal Dinner**, featuring an upscale **buffet-style dinner, DJ, dancing, and a cash bar**. This will be the main event of the weekend, where the music gets louder, the memories get sweeter, and the dance floor hopefully gets just the right amount of dramatic.  We are excited to announce we have locked down the Vert Auditorium. There is plenty of room for dinner and conversations but whether you are ready to turn it up or chill out, we have a party room and the "Secret Garden" to enjoy!  Expect a night that blends reunion elegance with just the right splash of 80's fun. Whether you were all about pop, rock, new wave, or power ballads, this is your moment to show up, celebrate, and maybe prove you still know every word to the songs that defined the era. And YOU get to decide the playlist! ## Stay Tuned Be sure to check this page periodically as we will keep it updated as more information is available. For now, save the date, spread the word, and start getting ready for a weekend that promises to be equal parts nostalgia, laughter, and 80s magic. The **Class of 1986** is getting back together, and this reunion is already shaping up to be totally rad.   ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fphsclassof86.us%2Fblog%2Fsave-the-date](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fphsclassof86.us%2Fblog%2Fsave-the-date) ## Keep reading ### [![Group of 1986 Classmates](https://phsclassof86.us/hs-fs/hubfs/reunion.jpg?width=960&height=540&name=reunion.jpg) Updates Can You Believe it's Been 40 Years???](https://phsclassof86.us/blog/2025-0103) ---   Go Bucks Pendleton High School Class of 1986, back together for our 40-Year Reunion Weekend, August 7 to 9, 2026 in Pendleton, Oregon.
