Fisher Park High School
- 250 Holland Avenue, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1Y 0Y6
On
October 25th and 26th, 1974, there was a 25th Reunion held at Fisher
 Park.
Hundreds of Fisher Park graduates returned to the school for festivities
and what seems to have been a celebrated event. A separate page dedicated
to this first big reunion has been created, because there are references
to items and memorabilia from that reunion that we would love to have
at our 2007 reunion! An excerpt from the yearbook entry about the
25th reunion:
"...All the students involved saw that hundreds of graduates
were enthusaistically returning to Fisher Park to salute it. Their
obvious pride in their old school, and the smiles of their faces as
they recalled old memories at the Dinner Dance on Saturday night proved
to be contagious. As one Fisher student remarked, "Nowhere have
I seen so many people having such a really great time.
 This
spirit was an unexpected byproduct of the Reunion, one which cannot
be measured, yet one that did have very definite effects, for it gave
Fisher students a sense of pride in their school. This is something
that many people say is lacking at Fisher - but you only had to look
at the people at the reunion to see that it exists."

25th Reunion Items we are looking for!
For the 25th Reunion we know that there were many items put
together that commemorated the school. We would love to begin
collecting or identifying where these items (or copies of them)
could be obtained. In all cases, we will credit those who provide
us with either images or copies!
- Student Council sold beer mugs complete with the school crest
(a digital photo would be great)
- A great many items, photographs and memorabilia were on display
- copies of any of this information would be appreciated!

All of the images on this page
are also linked to larger versions. They have all been taken from photocopies
of the 1974-75 (Vol.26) of the FiPaHi, the Fisher Park Year book. None of
the images were captioned with the names of the individuals in the picture,
so unfortunately we cannot identify them. If you know the identities of
those in these pictures, please let us know and we will caption the images!
