In 1998, a small crew of about twenty Azusa alumni found each other on the old Classmates.com message board. As more folks wandered in and the conversations took off, Julie Krejci 1979 and Garry Schanke 1972 stepped in as moderators.
When Classmates announced they were locking the boards behind a paid membership in 2001, we packed our digital bags and opened a new home on DelphiForums. On January 19, 2001, the doors opened—and shortly after, we launched our own website hosted by Julie (Krejci) Wilson ’79.
Fast-forward through ten years, 174,680 posts, and the rise of Facebook, and it was time for another shift. On October 5, 2011, the forum officially rebranded as The Azusa Connection, welcoming anyone with a tie to Azusa, California.
Julie continued to manage the Delphi board until spring 2025, when it was officially retired from active moderation and the paid membership was canceled. The archive is still there, though—you can visit our old home on Delphi and walk through the conversations that built this community.
A new message board will be added here once the server upgrade is complete, bringing the conversation back under our own roof where it all belongs.
Visit our old board on Delphi and stay tuned—the new community board is coming soon.

As I update each class year page to the new format I thought it would be fun to copy the Guest Book entries into the appropriate pages as I go. I have enjoyed reading comments from old friends, some who have passed since then. I hope you enjoy them too. - Our Azusa Alumni Message Board May 9, 2018
