This reunion is historically held mid-September at Sam's Town Hotel and Casino. It was started by alumni Bill "Wildcat Morris (class of 1945) in 1978. 2008 was the 30th anniversary of the Wildcat Reunion. The reunions were held in Morris' backyard until they became too large. It was then held in various locations until Morris died in 1998. In 2001, alumni Bill Boyd and other members of the class of 1949 started it up again at the Stardust Hotel. It was moved to Sam's Town in 2002 and has been held there annually ever since. contact Patty Haack at (702) 876-6660 or LVOwl@aol.com
