Usually the act of driving a school bus is a rather thankless task. But for the Rev. Reid Moon, his quarter-century of driving a bus in the Seneca Valley School District has brought memories and friendships that have persisted long after Moon left the district.

On July 9, Moon will rekindle many of those friendships by holding a reunion with dozens of the same students he drove to school decades ago. The event will take place at the McDanel’s Boat Launch Pavilion 7 on the North Shore at Moraine State Park in Muddy Creek Township.

Moon anticipates close to 60 of his former students will attend.
