College of the Redwoods 50th Anniversary Party

College of the Redwoods will celebrate its 50th year with an anniversary party at the Eureka campus on Saturday, Oct. 4 from 4 to 6 p.m.

On Jan. 14, 2014 Humboldt County voters overwhelmingly approved the formation of the CR District, a $3.6 million construction bond and seven trustees. 

“We will reflect on 50 years of transforming lives,” said CR President Kathy Smith. “We invite everyone to reunite with classmates, instructors, co-workers, administrators and trustees.”

The day will start with the football homecoming game in Community Stadium at 2 p.m. against Mendocino College.

The anniversary festivities will begin at 4 p.m. in a big tent on the lawn in front of the new Humanities Building. There will be tours of the new Academic Buildings, the Learning Resource Center and the Student Services/Administration Building.

The CR Jazz Band will play while participants enjoy vintage photos of CR’s history, complimentary appetizers and non-alcoholic beverages, and purchase beer and wine. There will be several guest speakers with links to CR’s five-decade past.
