Classmates.com Launches New Blog

The new blog expands Classmates’ role as a destination for alumni connection and memory preservation, offering reunion planning articles, school-history content, yearbook stories, celebrity throwbacks, class anniversary ideas, and tips for rediscovering former schoolmates. The launch comes as Classmates celebrates its 30-year anniversary and continues to build on its collection of more than 480,000 digitized yearbooks.

“For 30 years, Classmates has helped people reconnect with their school memories and the people who were part of them,” said Sarah Howe, President of Classmates. “The Classmates Blog gives us a new way to bring those stories forward, with helpful articles, nostalgic content, and inspiration for alumni who want to reconnect, reminisce, or plan their next reunion.”

Readers can expect articles designed for both practical planning and nostalgic discovery, including reunion checklists, ideas for reconnecting with former schoolmates, yearbook-inspired stories, school-history features, class anniversary content, celebrity yearbook discoveries, and tips for preserving and sharing meaningful memories.

For reunion organizers, the blog will provide helpful information and planning inspiration, from early outreach ideas to tips for creating memorable moments before, during, and after an event. Reunion planning itself continues to be supported through Classmates’ dedicated reunion resources.

The blog also gives Classmates a new way to highlight the broader stories behind school memories, from nostalgic yearbook moments and class traditions to notable alumni, celebrity yearbook throwbacks, and the lasting value of reconnecting with the people and places that shaped us.
