Gathering a decade after graduation, the Stillwater Class of 2016 10 Year Reunion takes place at The Freight House in downtown Stillwater, Minnesota, a river town on the St. Croix. This three hour evening brings light appetizers, a live DJ set from DJ Oreo Says Go, and the chance to keep celebrating when The Freight House Night Club opens at 10:00 PM. The Freight House sits within easy walking distance of Stillwater’s historic Main Street and the iconic Lift Bridge, making arriving early an opportunity to stretch your legs, shop antique stores, or watch the river lights. Exposed brick and industrial accents give the venue a workmanlike character that complements the town’s lumber and rail history. The event is social first and relaxed second—suited for conversation, catching up, and dancing between DJ sets. Guests spill outside into riverfront pockets of cool air, where bluff views and the St. Croix provide a scenic backdrop. Lowell Park and a riverside boardwalk are short walks away, perfect for a quiet conversation or a sunrise memory if you return the next morning. Practical details are simple: tickets include appetizers and the live DJ, the official gathering runs roughly three hours, and the nightclub opens later for anyone who wants to keep the night going. Expect a mixed crowd of locals and visitors from Minneapolis and nearby towns, so arrive ready to swap contact details and share stories. The evening is low exertion physically but high energy socially, so wear comfortable shoes, bring a light jacket, and carry a phone charger to capture candid moments. If you plan to park, allow time for municipal lots or a short walk from remote spaces; rideshare is a convenient option later in the night. For groups coordinate a meetup point on Main Street or by the lift bridge staircase so friends can find each other in the bustle. The Freight House’s open layout makes it easy to split between lively dance areas and quieter corners for catching up. Whether you’ve stayed in touch or haven’t seen classmates since graduation, this reunion offers a friendly, low pressure way to reconnect. Between laugh lines and shared memories, take a minute to step outside, breathe river air, and remember why small towns like Stillwater hold big pieces of our lives. The night at The Freight House is more than a party; it’s a chance to reconnect, make new plans, and leave with a handful of fresh stories. After the event, consider a morning coffee on Main Street to swap photos, compare notes, and prolong the reunion. Stillwater rewards slow conversations; the Freight House evening asks only for your presence and a readiness to reconnect before heading home or exploring more.
