 Hello! Welcome to the OFFICIAL website for Laguna Beach High School Alumni.
Our mission is to foster a sense of shared tradition and belonging within the community of the alumni of Laguna Beach High School, teachers, staff, and current students. This is for both Breakers and Artists.
Trophy Meet March 20th from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Save the date!
Back in the mid 1930's Orange County consisted of only twelve high schools with the two largest, Santa Ana and Fullerton participating in leagues with the larger out-of-county Southern California high schools while the remaining 10 were lumped into the Orange League regardless of school size. Red Guyer recognized this inequity and the lack of any high school competition for the county's smaller rural schools. Laguna hosted the first "minor" division track meet in 1937 and thus began the annual Trophy meet held almost every year until 1983. Until the latter years, school size was limited to traditional CIF size small- schools with the enrollment ceiling growing to 750 students and finally 1,000. It all changed in the 1970's as from 1973 through 1976, Laguna's State Champion, Eric Hulst attracted elite runners for special 1, 2 and 3-mile races featuring So Cal's top long-distance high school runners. Girls events were added in 1974 and by the late 70's the 2-day meet annually attracted athletes from over 60 schools.
Now after a lapse of over 25 seasons, the meet is back, committed to providing a competitive venue for the Southland's smaller high schools.
The famous long distance runner Glenn Richardson (Class of 1976) will be flying his plane all the way from his home in Vermont to attend.
Sharon Hulst, Heidi Hulst and Julie Hulst will be there along with Len Miller and Jim Toomey. Sharon indicated that Len and Jim will be part of the dedication of the Eric Hulst Track.
