DECEMBER, A TIME FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND REFLECTION

The fall semester is coming to a close... yes, before the Winter holidays. The fall saw very successful Redwood athletic teams, continued recognition for being an outstanding high school, and a busy Alumni Council selecting distinguished Redwood Alumni in Athletics and for the Avenue of Giants. According to current Redwood Principal Barnaby Payne, 40% of Redwood's 2024 seniors had a GPA of 4.0 or higher with weighted grades! No more limits to taking only one or two AP classes! If you want to know more about what's going on at your alma mater, you can follow the award winning BARK. " The Redwood Bark, the student newspaper of Redwood High School in Larkspur, won top honors at the National High School Journalism Convention in Philadelphia." Read Article Here

WE HAVE LOST TWO GIANTS...

Bob Sargent, long time teacher and coach passed away this fall. He taught physical education, science, math, and driver training. Bob was passionate about teaching; always prodding his students to think and learn. While teaching, Bob coached RHS Giants football and basketball teams for several years, and then the golf team for three decades until his retirement in 2000. He was a man of integrity who was exceptionally devoted and committed to his family. Bob had a unique style and his own way of looking at life. He was warm, sympathetic and at all times true to himself. Good natured teasing and a twinkle in his eyes confirmed his affection for you.

Steve "Lou" Larsen was a very active member of the Redwood Community for many, many years. He served on the Alumni Council, was a leader and moving force behind the Redwood High School Athletic Hall of Fame, kept the stats for basketball teams over three decades and helped with coaching.  He was also a dedicated follower of classmate Pete Carroll and joined other classmates, plus a few hangers on in seeing USC and the Seahawks in numerous venues. Finally, he was a wonderful brother, uncle and friend to many. He is sorely missed.

SURPLUS YEARBOOKS AVAILABLE FOR SALE!

The Redwood Alumni Association has purchased most of the surplus yearbooks from Redwood for a very good price...We can offer them to you for only $50 including shipping and handling. We have one or more for most classes since 1975, some classes being more scarce.

We will notify you and if the yearbook is available, will give you payment instructions! Yearbook purchase(s) are available to Redwood alumni only. If you have yearbooks from the early years and wish to donate them to Redwood, please contact the above email.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

I need help to find family and friends of Todd Norris, Tom Poppin and Robin Williams, all graduated in 1969. We were teammates in 1969 on the Redwood High School track team, setting the mile relay record for the school that year, and it remains the school record to this day! The relay team was selected to be inducted into the Redwood Athletic Hall of Fame for this milestone achievement. Unfortunately, all three men are deceased. If anyone is related to them or can help me find living relatives or close friends, please contact me. I want their wives, ex-wives, children and friends to know these former athletes are being honored next year. My desire is for their families and friends to know their accomplishments and to attend the RAFOF induction ceremony.
Any information would be helpful. Please contact:
