POTOMAC MD WCHS 50th REUNION

Hard to believe it, but it has indeed been 50+ years since we all graced the halls (and

nearby river and pastures) of Winston Churchill High School. And so, it is time for us to

once again assemble, to reminisce and remember the gold ole’ days and times we had,

and to share our stories, both old and new.

The Reunion Committee is pleased to announce that the 50 th Reunion of the Winston

Churchill High School Class of 1972 Reunion is scheduled for October 7-9, 2022 at the

Homewood Suites and Hilton Garden Inn located in Rockville, MD. These properties

are located on the same campus and share a common entry and amenities.

All reunion activities will be at the Homewood Suites and Hilton Garden Inn. There will

be a reception on Friday night and a reception and dinner on Saturday night. Special

room rates are available for the Class of ’72.

We hope that you will be able to join us for our 50 th reunion. Event
