Slideshow: Plenty of purple and gold around Pleasanton last weekend

Amador Valley High alumni and current students joined community leaders and others in marking the school's centennial with a series of special events from Sept. 14-16, including a parade down Main Street, the Wine and Cheese Opening Reception outside the Museum on Main, festivities before the Dons' football game against Monte Vista (a 41-34 shootout victory) and Meet-ups at the Park, among others.
