East Forsyth High School Announces 2019 Homecoming Game

Great News!! East Forsyth's 2019 homecoming football game is scheduled for Friday night, September 20, 2019, the night before our 50-year Reunion. This game is against Page High School from Greensboro.  Since East is the defending state 4A champions, this game should prove to be a great one!

Your Steering Committee is negotiating with the officials at East High School to: (1) Provide a pre-game tour of East High School for members of the Class of '69, (2) provide a place for our class to assemble prior to the game, and (3) provide a place for us to sit as a class in the stands as we cheer-on the Eagles.  We are also hoping that our class will be recognized over the public address system, and that our 1969 Homecoming Queen, Glenda Carlyle (Eller), will be allowed to assist in the crowning of the 2019 Homecoming Queen.  

Please make your plans to include attendance at this game as part of your 50th Reunion weekend plans.  Please check the "50th Reunion" link along the left side of the home page where we will keep you updated as plans are finalized.
