Garfield High School - Seattle, Washington
Class of '76
Time flies when you're having fun
Welcome Back, Bulldogs
Half a century. That's how long it's been since we walked the halls of Garfield High School and stepped into the world together. Now it's time to come back, to reconnect, remember, and celebrate how far we've come. Three days. Fifty years of stories. We can't wait to see you!
Celebrating 50 years
Reunion Events
Half a century is worth celebrating right. This September, the Garfield Class of 1976 gathers for three days of elegance, laughter, and the kind of conversations that only happen between people who truly know each other. Whether you've stayed in touch or it's been way too long, this weekend is for you. Come as you are. Leave with memories that'll last another fifty years.
Reunion will be hosted at the Hotel Interurban in Tukwila, WA.

Message from your Reunion Committee
GHS class of '76:
This is our year!
Our Golden 50th Reunion is happening September 11-13, 2026, and your Reunion Committee has been hard at work since May 2025 to put together a weekend we hope you'll be proud of and excited to attend!
We'll be gathering at the Hotel Interurban, 223 Andover Park E in Tukwila, WA, our host hotel for this milestone celebration and just a short walk from Westfield Southcenter Mall.
Kicking things off on Friday, September 11, we'll welcome everyone at the Airmark Rooftop Lounge for our Welcome Reception. Come relax, mingle, grab a bite, catch up, take some photos, and just enjoy a casual evening with your fellow Garfield Bulldogs before the big weekend really gets going.
Then on Saturday, September 12, we'll come together for our Golden 50th Reunion Banquet in the stunning Rainier Room. Expect a great dinner, the music we all love to remember, and our beautiful Golden 50th Class Photo (plus plenty of your own). It's going to be an elegant evening celebrating the Class of 1976 and our guests.
And to close things out, we've reserved space Sunday, September 13 at Jamar's Sports Bar & Grill for a no-host Sunday Brunch Gathering. Come continue the fellowship, enjoy some brunch or a mimosa if you're so inclined, and help us raise a final toast to the Garfield Class of 1976!
We can't wait to see you there!
B4L!
