FAQ For Club


Q: How can I join the Club?

A: If you graduated from Washington High School more than fifty years ago you are automatically a member of the FiftyPlus Club.



Q: How many members are in the FiftyPlus Club?

A: Our membership grows each year one of our graduating classes celebrates their fiftieth year reunion.

Currently we have about 1500 "Active" members of the FiftyPlus Club.



Q: What is the difference between being an "Active Member" and an "Inactive Member" of the FiftyPlus Club?

A: Active members receive mailings and invitations to our annual Prom luncheons. Inactive members receive no mailings. Persons who are in classes that recently celebrated their fiftieth year class reunion will receive mailings and invitations for five years if their class representative furnishes us with names and addresses to enter into our club database.



Q: How can I become an "Active Member" of the FiftyPlus Club? And why is it important?
