JEFFERSON HIGH CLASS OF ‘85 – 40TH REUNION
Dragons, it’s been 40 years! Time to reconnect, reminisce, and celebrate four decades since we walked the halls of Jefferson High. No ticketed formal event this time—just a laid-back weekend with great company, good memories, and plenty of laughs.
� Friday, August 22
� For one night only, OPP is at Hotel Haya in the heart of Ybor. During high school, “Our Party Place” moved around, and let’s be honest—we weren’t always supposed to be there. This time, there’s no sneaking around, no trespassing, and no mysterious locations. Meet us at the main hotel bar for Happy Hour starting at 5:30—to catch up and kick off the weekend.
Parking is available via valet or at either the City Palm Garage (2010 N 13th St) two blocks northwest or Centro Ybor (1606 N 16th St) two blocks southeast.
� While we were originally going to catch the Jefferson vs. Leto football game, it was recently moved to an away game.
� Saturday, August 23
� No formal dinner, no fancy dress, no speeches (well...probably)—just a fun night at Shuffle (2612 N Tampa St) with great music, drinks, bar food, and a relaxed atmosphere. Plenty of space to hang out, plus easy parking.

While there are no official events at Hotel Haya, it’s a great place for impromptu meetups throughout the weekend—whether it’s coffee in the morning, a nightcap at the bar, or just running into old friends in the lobby.
More details coming soon. Tag your fellow Class of ‘85 grads, spread the word, and let’s get ready to have some fun together.
