About the event
This year marks Willow Lake High School's 111th consecutive, annual all-school reunion. What an amazing tradition! Join us for the Alumni Banquet, which will begin in the school gym at 6:30pm. Enjoy a delicious meal, enjoy reminiscing with classmates, and help us welcome the graduating seniors from the WLHS Class of 2023.
ALUMNI DANCE
Due to gym space, the banquet is alumni-only. However, non-WLHS spouses and community members are invited and encouraged to attend the Alumni Dance which will be held in the gym after the banquet. [Your banquet attendance ($25) also admits you to the dance. Those not attending the banquet pay $10 at the door for admittance to the dance.] Come and enjoy live music by local favorite Greg Hanson & the Backroads. There will be not be beverages available for sale at the dance, so please plan accordingly.
HOSPITALITY ROOM
If you prefer a quieter space to visit with classmates, stay after the banquet in the school multi-purpose room (lunch room) to enjoy our Hospitality Room. Refreshments will be available. School and Alumni-related memorabilia will be on display, on loan from the Willow Lake Museum!
DONATIONS TO THE SCHOOL
Continuing a tradition started four years ago, you have the option to add a donation here with your registration for the Willow Lake Alumni "Dollar Per Year" Challenge.

Beneficiaries include the FFA program, music department, school plays, the library, new playground equipment, and new outdoor picnic tables. Thank you for your continued generosity!
