A special Emerald Regime 40 Year
Anniversary Party and Parade
To celebrate 40 years of Emerald Regime, the
alumni hosted a special dinner party on the evening of Saturday July 2nd,
2010, and
participated in the Morgan Hill Independence Day Parade on July 4th.
This party served as a celebration of the Emerald Regime throughout its
rich history and also a huge "thank you" to Mike and Cricket Rubino for their leadership and commitment to excellence throughout the
Emerald Regime's history.

With regret, we
have some sad news to pass on. On Monday, February 7th, 2011, Jim
"Papa/Grandpa" Rubino passed away. He just celebrated his 98th
birthday on Monday, January 31st. Mr. Rubino said that one of his
fondest memories was cooking for the band on numerous occasions.
The Rubino family had a memorial
celebration of life on Friday, March 4th at 3pm. Several alumni,
family and friends attended the celebration. There was a video presentation
showing the life of Papa Rubino and several people shared great stories and
fond memories of him. More information can be found on the
Emerald Regime Alumni Facebook page.
