Pictures
of the 70th birthday events are now online
for you to see. They are in a Powerpoint
presentation - four separate files. These
files are quite large and may take up
to three minutes to load using a Broadband
connection. On a good day - maybe
90 seconds! If you are still on a dial-up
internet connection, call a friend!
The
files are linked below. When you click
on a file, your Powerpoint program should
open separately. The files are safe. They
have been scanned for viruses so go ahead,
when prompted, click to 'open' the file.

THANK
YOU CLASSMATES
Well
we did it! We successfully celebrated
our 70th birthdays with lots of our friends
from our high school days. As the saying
goes, “a good time was had by all”.
Thank you all for attending and helping
to make the event such a huge success.
For those of you who couldn’t make
it to our party, we missed you and you
missed a wonderful time. A special treat
was June McGill, our PE teacher, coming
to help us celebrate. It was wonderful
to see her.
A
big “Thank You” goes to Scott
Crawford, Judy Billingham Crawford’s
son. Scott provided the food for our feast
free and the only food we had to buy was
the meat and dessert. No one went hungry
and all enjoyed the fabulous meal. By
having the donation from Scott we were
able to keep your cost way down.
Jesse
Pipkin came the farthest; from California
and Rick Todd received the prize for being
the oldest. Such a lucky guy! Did you
know that Ray Cullifer is a yo-yo champ?
The boy can do some impressive stuff!
The hoola hoops got a work out but there
wasn’t a clear winner there! We
seem to have lost our skills in that area!
A beautiful gift basket full of coffees,
teas, chocolates and so forth was won
by Joan Chaya Oldham. We also gave away
many cash prizes several of which were
returned to us to use as “seed money”
for our next reunion. Lots of pictures
were taken and they will be posted here
in the near future so keep checking.
Once
again we are so happy that you all could
come and participate in the celebration
and we hope you had a great time. We (the
committee) had a ball planning the party
and look forward to the next event celebrating
our 55th Class reunion. Anyone interested
in working on that party should contact
one of us on this committee or Bill Cross.
We will point you in the right direction.
Rumor has it that Jane Martin Briel will
be the chairman.
Thank
you all,
Your
Committee:
Judy
Crawford, Jane Briel, Jean Cullifer, Alyce-Mae
Alexander, and Kaki Goshen
