RHS HOMECOMING EXTRAVAGANZA!
OCTOBER 9 - 10, 2004

Roosevelt High School had a once-in-a-lifetime classic Diamond Jubilee Homecoming Weekend!

The 1958 and 1959 RHS Alumni Classes sponsored a "Meet & Greet" for everyone on Friday, October 8, 2004 at 6:00 P.M. in the Roosevelt High School Community Room.
Everyone had a wonderful time sharing food and good times with former classmates as a kick-off to our 75th Anniversary Homecoming Weekend.
 

Our official Diamond Jubilee Homecoming celebration blasted off on Saturday, October 9th with our 75th Anniversary Tailgate Party  in the RHS Stadium parking lot with food and fun for all; next, the RHS Homecoming Parade kicked off by our famous RHS Band leading marchers, decorated cars and floats to celebrate 75 years of Roosevelt history. Later that afternoon, our Mighty Panthers met West Side High on the gridiron for our 2004 RHS Homecoming Football Game. It was a thrilling battle for the conference title, and WE WON!
 
 Later that night the stars were shining as 'Velt Alumni  and friends from every era partied down with music and dancing at the Gary Genesis Convention Center as they enjoyed the RHS Alumni Diamond Jubilee Homecoming Dance
 
Our exciting weekend Homecoming Extavaganza concluded on an uplifting note on Sunday, October 10th in the famed Roosevelt High School Auditorium with our RHS Diamond Jubilee Ecumenical Service and Concert featuring Roosevelt Alumni Ministers and other distinguished alumni delivering timely and inspirational messages to the many hundreds in attendance. There was also soul-stirring music of praise and thanksgiving from local choirs including our own Roosevelt Student Choir, and uplifting offerings from local praise dancers.
 
THIS WAS A WEEKEND NOT TO BE MISSED!!
