CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. -  The Class of 1970 would have normally celebrated its 50th year reunion at Campbellsville University on Homecoming weekend. However, with the COVID-19 pandemic, the university is taking precautions and will be altering her celebration style for the year.

The 1970 Campbellsville College Class would have been inducted into Golden Heritage Club. Unfortunately, the reunion won't happen until spring because of the pandemic, but the class will still be paid tribute to in the fall semester.

To acknowledge the class, the Office of Alumni Relations at Campbellsville University will be putting together a project where they will use videos and pictures of memories from this class.

Those who were part of this class were encouraged to send in any video, experience or message they had to the Office of Alumni Relations.

The videos sent in will be combined with the yearbook for the class. The tribute for the class will be shown on both Campbellsville University's Facebook page and YouTube channel.

“The class will also be sent a celebration box including things like a scarf, key chain, etc. It is to show that even if they're not here we're thinking of them,” Ashley Fox, director of alumni relations, said.

For more information about the reunion, contact Fox at amfox@campbellsville.edu or visit https://www.campbellsville.edu/alumni/homecoming2020/ to find out more.
