Some of those who attended the old St. Clare Walker High School — now the site of the Cooks Corner Office Complex — gathered for a reunion on Saturday, Sept. 10. The last class graduation at the school was in 1969.

The reunion was just a part of activities for day “Seasoned Seniors,” an ages 55 and older program at the Tom Carter Memorial Gymnasium, which was originally part of St. Clare Walker High School. The event was sponsored by the Middlesex County Parks and Recreation Department, Game Changers of Middlesex and Creative Productions.
