On Friday prior to the reunion, the Adamson Alumni 2018 Charity Golf Classic is scheduled at the Prairie Lakes Golf Course 3202 SE 14th Street in Grand Prairie.
Saturday’s All-Class Reunion will include activities for all former students, including the Reunion program, induction of outstanding alumni and faculty into the Adamson Hall of Honor, tours of the school, and a luncheon in the school cafeteria catered by the favorite Norma’s Restaurant.
Oak Cliff High School was built in 1915 at Ninth and Beckley streets in Oak Cliff and was renamed for its long-time principal and former Oak Cliff Public School Superintendent W. H. Adamson upon his death in 1935. Operating continuously as a high school at that location makes it the oldest continuously operating high school building in Dallas. The original building is a city, state and national Landmark and still stands next to the new building opened in 2012.
Reservations for the Golf Tournament and/or for the Reunion Luncheon may be made at Adamson Alumni Association, PO Box 4753, Dallas, TX 75208, the association’s website adamsonalums.org or by contacting Minnie Busby at 214/363-1061 or jwmebusby@aol.com. The Reunion program is open to the public.
