WHERE ARE THEY NOW


Battle Creek Central High School
Class of 1965

Come Explore with Us... 

Here's an overview of how to use the BCCHS Class of 65 website.

Home Page is the webpage you are reading now. From any other page on this website, you can immediately jump to the Home Page by clicking on the BCCHS logo in the upper right corner.

Announcements appear after this overview. They will come and go and will usually contain information of a timely nature. You may browse expired announcements using the "What's New" feature.

What's New allows you to browse all the changes made to any aspect of the website including profile changes, announcements, new pictures or videos, new messages in the message center, etc.

Contact Us is useful to tell the website administrators about problems, questions you have, changes you would like to see made, password resets, etc.

Paean 1965 & 1964 displays the entire two yearbooks online. You can bookmark pages, zoom in on important pictures, print pages, etc.

First Time Visitors is what you'll want to read if you are new to the website and want to join. If you are a classmate of the 1965 Battle Creek Central class, please be sure to join.

Class Connection is the BEST way for Facebook users to link their Facebook account directly to the BCCHS65 website. Check it out.

Who are your classmates? 
In the summer 2017, we added approximately 100 names as classmates on this website. None were graduates of BCCHS in 1965 who we forgot to include. They were BCCHS students who you may have had in class and might have been your good friends many years ago but who, for some reason, didn’t graduate with us. Rather than exclude them from some possible connections with their old friends, we added them as classmates for you to connect with. If there’s a classmate who was in the same grade as you, whether it was elementary, junior high or high school, who you would like added to our website, let us know via the Contact Us feature.

UPDATED ITEM FOLLOWS.

The 55th Reunion plans       

As many of you are aware, several months ago plans were made to hold our 55th Reunion this month. The tentative dates were August 14 - 15. As you can most likely guess, those plans were cancelled many weeks ago. Apologies to anyone who made plans to attend. Current long-term plans call for a 56th Reunion next summer in July or August. Notification will be sent as soon as plans are progressing. If you are interested in helping with this reunion, please contact us using the "Contact Us" link along the left side of this page.

ALL BCCHS lunches are...

CANCELLED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE due to the corona virus.

Stay tuned for the next lunch and any other scheduled events.  

PAST BCCHS lunches and picnics...

Our Class of '65 lunches normally are on the third Wednesday of most months. Typically they are at Clara’s on the River at 11:30 a.m. or noon. Clara’s has good food and a convenient location with lots of parking. Clara’s will set aside a space for us in the restaurant where we can eat and visit for a few hours.

For several months, we've had monthly get-togethers for classmates in Battle Creek. Many classmates have enjoyed the company of each other and great food. If you live close to BC or will be visiting on the dates of the lunches, please join us! It's fun to spend some time with each other for lunch and catch up with what is going on.

Here are the past lunches in 2020:

January 15, 2020 at NOON at Clara's on the River. A small group attended.

February 19, 2020 at NOON at Clara's on the River. A small group came and celebrated the 114th anniversary of the founding of the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company, which is now Kellogg's. It's was GRRRRREAT.
