Dress:
Men: The preferred P-rade outfit for classmates is blazer, new black polo, white pants, or on a hot day white shorts (for those who are willing to expose their legs). Then the straw hats for those who have preserved them or the 1961 caps, and this year, cardboard engineer caps.
Otherwise, the weekend attire is casual and will depend on the weather. Perhaps dinners will be "smart casual" but that term now just excludes bathing suits and no shirts! Jeans would be
OK for most things. - Justin Kimball
Women: For evenings, a dress, skirt or pants would be fine. Many women wear their own orange and/or black outfits which of course is fun to see. The women don't have to be in the "Costume" all
weekend. Just for the P-rade*. I think the thing to stress is to be comfortable and not worry about wearing anything really fancy. Casual clothes are fine. It will probably get cool at night so a jacket or
sweater would be wise to bring. - Evelyn Prather
*Ladies P-rade Costume should contain some Orange and Black. Options:
- Black shirt with the logo or a black shirt of your own, with white or orange pants
- A dress, skirt, or pants made from the 61 fabric
- White shirt with orange or black pants (the T-shirt some people ordered is white - logo on front, "61" on back)
- Scarves can be picked up at the Holder site. If you need yours ahead of the reunion weekend, please click to email Eve Prather or call her on 908-781-7328.
