CHAFFEY HIGH SCHOOL TIGERS & BEST FRIENDS “CHS-TBF ANNUAL REUNIONS”
(This Annual Reunion is Open to All CHS Classmates)
Most of the Chaffey High School Classmates that range from the class of 1955 to 1965 and a few classes beyond this majority.
This Annual Reunion Started in 1996 With Two Chaffey Car Clubs.
TORQUES BUZZARDS & FRIENDS (TBF)
Over time it evolved from a Chaffey Car Club Reunion into a reunion to include more Chaffey classmates. The name was changed to:
TIGERS & BEST FRIENDS (TBF)
From 1996 to 2022 the Annual CHS-TBF Reunions were held in Laughlin, NV. As the drive to Laughlin, became harder for most of our classmates, the CHS-TBF reunion committee decided in 2023 to relocate the annual reunions to the Ontario, CA area.
NOTE: The Current Plan is to have a “Final Reunion” in
2026 on the 30th Anniversary of the CHS-TBF Reunions.
Hope you can join us for the Final Reunions 2025, & 2026.
