Fellow Mountaineers, it is time to get ready to get ready for the greatest night of our lives: THE SWEET 16 REUNION!

As many of you know by now Dave Wuth purchased a home in December with the sole purpose of donating it to the Class of 1994.

Today he finalized the paperwork, recorded the quitclaim with the registry of deeds in Worcester, and lastly executed a fiduciary habendum clause on the insurer to ensure there is no lineal dispute with probate.

This means THE BEST CLASS EVER is now the co-owner of the property. “It’s Christmas come early for us,” Dave Wuth told FOX News as tears came down his face. “The Class o’ 94 is now in the property management business. We own all the records so I figured it was time we start owning all the homes and business units in the Wachusett district. We are one step closer to that goal.”

Wuth will remain as the primary tenant, but any classmate will be able to stay the night or weekend in our home (pictured above) as long as Wuth is given 24 hours notice. “I will always lay out blankets for you,” he said.

Over the past six months Wuth has fixed up the home with one goal – to host our SWEET 16 reunion in November.

“I think it’s ready,” Dave said. “But people should be careful of the nails protruding from the floorboards, dead rats in the living room and brown water from the tap.”

Other concerns for those attending our reunion:

• There is no heating, but Wuth hopes to have one working electrical outlet to plug in a portable heater UNLESS the DJ needs it for his gear.
• There is no bathroom, but a portion of the admission price MAY be used to pay for a Porta John unless people want to just go outside. “I may just clear a path to the woods so people can go to the bathroom there,” Wuth said.
• There is probably enough room to fit 7 people safely so people will have to spend most of their time in their cars.
• Be careful of the trap door at the front entrance. It is a 15 foot drop and there is no way to get people out of there.
• Attendees will need to wear a mask or respirator due to the exposed asbestos throughout the home.

“Other than that people should be fine,” Wuth said. “I’ll see everybody in November.”

Earlier this morning the Class of 1994 inked Andrea Ajemian to a five-year deal in the mid-six figure salary range that will lock up Ms. Ajemian as the class’ first ever videographer.

An emotional Andrea fought back tears, blowing her nose into a tissue nine times before regaining her composure and calling this the proudest moment of her life.

For Andrea, who has multiple films to her credit including the soon to be released “Boyband” as well as “Still Green” (2007) and “Rutland, USA” (2002), the move comes as a shocker.

While her strength is in narrative features, she said, “this just makes so much sense. I’ve never been associated with anything like your class, something that people consider the best ever. This will challenge my abilities like never before and tap into a creative nerve that I’ve never been able to reach.”

She will follow the achievements of our class, starting chronologically from 1989 when many of our members – from Coyle to Cocozella – were in eighth grade and undecided in where they would be heading to high school.

While the pinnacle of the documentary will be our graduation when Dr. Pandisco proclaimed us the best there ever was, there ever is and there ever will be, Andrea will continue to show how our class has maintained that status up to the present, with the goal of producing a 94 episode series documenting our rise to the top.

Andrea, who graduated in 1993 from Wachusett, admitted she was contacted by her fellow classmates, but declined what she called an insulting lowball offer to document their mediocrity.

“Plus, my class is a bunch of frauds and cheats,” she said, pointing to the time they used #3 pencils instead of the required #2 pencils on the PSAT’s in 1992 as a prime example. “The Class of ’94 would never do that. Never has your class been derelict in its duties.”

Her brother, Mark, who has repeatedly disrespected our class with his lackadaisical attitude and disgusting facial hair pulled at Andrea from a different direction. He wanted her to become the official videographer of his class – the overrated and underperforming Class of 1995.

“I just laughed in his face,” Andrea said of that request. “The Class of’95 is a lightweight in a heavyweight’s division. They want all the glory, but will make none of the sacrifices necessary to get them there.”

Andrea said the tentative title for the documentary will be: “Go. Fight. Win.”

In addition to compiling archival footage, Andrea will interview some of the class greats like Chico Vader and focus on his 1993 speech to secure the class presidency against the dirty politics of Lisa Cederbaum.

One episode will focus on the bass fishing rivalry between brothers Doug and Dave Laidlaw that was so intense it almost split the class apart if it were not for the French interventionist tactics of Nathalie Garcia.

There will be never seen before footage of Amy “The Nerks” Nerker brushing her hair in the purple hallway while Renee Roy paints her fingernails. “It really is some exciting stuff,” Andrea said.

In one emotional moment, Jouni Harjuunma sings the Swish national anthem before the start of the 1994 Volleyball Marathon. Andrea has purchased the rights to that video and will be dissecting it from the socio-political climate of the time. “Only a few years earlier the Berlin Wall had come down in Germany and here you have Jouni singing this anthem. The parallels are amazing. It is just a powerful political statement to the rest of the world,” Andrea said.

Lori Ronayne has promised to unveil the secret behind her ability to hold her breath underwater for 94 seconds while Liz (Morrison) Singh will explain the mathematical formula she discovered that proves everything is divisible by 94.

Choosing a favorite scene or moment from our past 16 years will be difficult. “When I see all that your class has accomplished I shake my head and cry,” Andrea said. “I cry because I know we will never see anything like your class again. And it is my duty to make sure that future generations learn from your excellence by making the best documentary ever.”

The Best Class Ever wants to extend its best wishes – remember those wishes are better and more powerful than any other class – to all for a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

And we wanted to take a minute to thank those who participated in the 4th Annual WRHS Alumni Drive for the Wachusett Food Pantry that was organized by the following classes: 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1997.

Together we had the most successful drive in our short history and were able to help those struggling to pay bills put some food on the table during the holiday season.

Our totals for the drive included over 20 bags of donations and $565 in monetary donations.

Major kudos – and our sincere thanks – go out to the following who contributed, both big and small (this is not all inclusive as many donated without leaving their names so we apologize in advance if we’ve left anyone off):

• The Bartlett Family of Sterling
• Jodi Briggs
• Murray Bristol
• Carrie’s Creations and Village Garden Center of Holden
• Amy (Mikelonis) Davis
• Amelia (Etrie) DeRosa
• Kara (Campobasso) and Jesse Fisette
• Candace (Fisher) Gardner
• Kari Fortin
• Elliot Fuller
• Stephanie (Magdis) and Mark Girouard
• Tara & Joe Kalinowski
• Christina (Gunther) Lashua
• Adam Lein
• Megan (Hehir) and James Marshall
• Katie “Caribbean Queen” O’Connell
• Kelly (Runstrom) Reed
• Jennifer (Bergren) and Kevin Simes
• Elizabeth (Morrison) Singh
• Wachusett Family Practice (Doctors and Staff) of Holden
• Jill (Fortin) Zelley and her store Mountainside Market of Princeton

As far as the internal competition: the Class of 1995 won “The Greatest Class Ever” title which is good for one year until the next food drive.

And Adam Lein, Jill (Fortin) Zelley and Katie “Caribbean Queen” O’Connell have won free admission into The Best Class Ever’s next reunion. Stay tuned in the next few days to find out when that will be.

It is that time of year again – time for our annual holiday drive for the Wachusett Food Pantry.

We are being joined this year by a number of WRHS alumni classes including – Class of 1993, Class of 1995 and Class of 1997 – with hopefully more to follow.

We hope you will all join us in making this drive more successful than the past. Any donation is welcome, big or small, as it all goes towards local residents in need.

WHEN

It begins today and runs through Friday, December 18. We are going to drop off donations on Saturday, December 19 at The First Baptist Church on Main Street in Holden.

HOW TO HELP

All we are asking is donations of non-perishable and unexpired foods. Any donation is welcome, but the food pantry is always in need of:

• Canned protein sources (stews, chili, ravioli, hash, baked beans)
• Macaroni & cheese
• 100% Juice (concentrate preferred)
• Canned fruits and vegetables
• Canned soup
• Spaghetti sauce

You can also make a tax deductible donation to the: Wachusett Food Pantry. Please include your address so you can receive a receipt for tax purposes of your donation.

The pantry is able to use monetary donations to buy groceries at a fraction of the cost at a normal supermarket through its association with the Worcester County Food Bank.

WHERE TO DROP OFF DONATIONS

PRINCETON: Mountainside Market at 23 Hubbardston Road (Owned by the Class of 95’s Jill (Fortin) Zelley.

Click on this link for the Landmark article on Jill’s market: Mountainside Market

Mountainside Market is also a Toys for Tots drop off for anyone wishing to donate toys for that cause. The toys will go to needy students at the Thomas Prince School.

HOLDEN: Carrie’s Creations & Village Garden Center at 788 Main Street

STERLING: Megan (Hehir) Marshall’s (Class of 1994) home at 27 Tanglewood Drive.

Amy (Mikelonis) Davis’ (Class of 1994) home at 11 Rugg Road. Her home is also a drop off for Toys for Tots.

LEOMINSTER: Edward Jones investment offices at 63 Main Street (across from the Leominster Post Office). Christina (Gunther) Lashua (Class of 1993) works there and has been kind enough to offer this as another drop off location.

WHY YOU SHOULD HELP

The Wachusett Food Pantry helps those in need by providing them with food they may not otherwise be able to afford. In this economy that need is greater than before and provides local residents (young and old) with greater financial flexibility to remain in Holden, Princeton, Paxton, Rutland or Sterling.

Beyond that the participating classes will be competing to see which can donate the most goods with the winner getting: THE GREATEST CLASS EVER attached to their name. (Note that “greatest” is not better than “best.”)

In addition, two lucky participants will win entry into the rumored Sweet 16 Reunion for the Class of 1994 which will allegedly be held next year.

As such we would ask that those who donate provide their name and year they graduated in order to determine the winners of the friendly contests. Of course you can always keep your donations anonymous as well.

Thank you for your support and hope you all have a happy holiday season!!!

Today our class has so much to be thankful for. We are still, after 15 years, The Best Class Ever. Bar none.

When we graduated in 1994 many doubted that we would continue our dominance for this long. They said we were washed up. We were overrated. We were running on empty. Those same people will be eating crow for dinner tonight.

But today is not about them. It is about us.

And how great we are. This week many have called and e-mailed and written class headquarters to let us know how much we mean to them. Below is just a glimpse of the thanks we have been receiving:

“We rule so bad and so much I still wear my Wachusett track jersey to work, on dates and out in public. Every day of my life. I refuse to ever take it off.”

Ray Allen’s 30 point game on Monday night – 28 in the second half – against the Chicago Bulls was truly one for the ages.

With two seconds left he hit the game winning three to tie the series and give the Boston Celtics life in the best of seven series.

For anyone who watched, Ray and his UCONN counterpart, Ben Gordon, went head to head in the second half trading basket after basket in a shooting display reminiscent of the Larry Bird/Dominique Wilkins scoring duel in Game 7 of the 1988 Eastern Conference semifinals.

Yet, immediately following the game the Internet was abuzz, not with talk of Ray Allen’s performance, but of another basketball great – Class of ’94 hardwood legend Mike Senckowski.

Dave Wuth called Ray Allen a poor man’s Mike Senckowski, writing on his Facebook page that “Ray couldn’t carry Mike’s jock strap. Plain and simple.”

Chris Tremblay wrote that Senckowski was the best there was, the best there is and the best there ever will be. “Ray Allen never put up 37 on Milford,” Tremblay said. “Mike Senckowski did. And I was there.”

Brant Harmon placed Senckowski in a class all by himself. “If I was forming a basketball team to win a championship, Senckowski would be the first person I’d pick,” he said. “I wouldn’t even consider Ray Allen.”

With all this controversy we are asking you to decide.

WHO IS THE BEST BASKETBALL PLAYER EVER: MIKE OR RAY?

THIS ARTICLE, WHICH APPEARED IN THE WORCESTER TELEGRAM & GAZETTE EARLIER THIS YEAR, PROVES OUR DOMINANCE IS NO FLUKE!!!

In a stunning series of events, Craig “Cheezer” Paradis slept through Christmas this year.

“I don’t know what happened,” Cheezer said when woken at 8:15 this morning by his roommate Chris Nobile.

Here is what we do know:

At 5:30 PM on Christmas Eve, Cheezer contemplated going to Wong Dynasty before he was alerted in a text a half hour later from Brant Harmon that Wong is no longer open.

He then, from wire reports, made a bacon and cheese omelette for himself before baking a batch of chocolate chip cookies he placed on the counter, along with a glass of two percent milk, for Santa Claus.

After eating the omelette he played shirtless Guitar Hero for the next hour and a half.

Shortly after 9:30, he was tucked into bed by his roommate. “I’ve been a good boy this year,” he told Nobile.

Those were the last words he spoke for nearly a day and a half. He woke up this morning, sleeping nearly 36 hours. That is a class record and one of the top five-marks set by any man, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.

As to how he slept that long, Paradis was unsure but attributed it to the following:

1. Nobile didn’t wake him up like he normally does.
2. He was dreaming of sugar plums dancing in his head.
3. He forgot to set his alarm.
4. He was tired.
5. He did it for our class.

The last may be the most important reason, Cheezer admitted. And if need be, he said, he will sleep even longer if it means our class finally getting the respect it deserves.

“I will sleep forever if I have to,” Cheezer said this morning while still in bed. He rubbed his eyes several times before putting his head back on his pillow and taking a quick nap, proving just how much he loves the Class of ’94.
