Still Millers After All These Years

By Millburn Short Hills Monthly Staff · Published

Old yearbooks, school newspapers and familiar photographs brought memories flooding back as Millburn High School alumni visited the Millburn-Short Hills Historical Society’s museum this September.

The Class of 1976 marked its 50th reunion with a September 26 exhibition, following a September 19 gathering for the Class of 1965’s 61st reunion.

Arranged by Curator-in-Chief Dorothy Kelly at the former westbound Short Hills train station, the displays featured school memorabilia alongside reminders of favorite local shops and restaurants.

“It’s exciting to see people’s reactions to the exhibition, and how some objects spark so many shared memories,” Kelly said.

For returning classmates, the open houses offered a chance to reconnect with old friends and the town they once called home.
