HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US...HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLASS OF 68...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!!!!!
Final plans are being made by the The Reunion Committee for our 60th Birthday Bash!
FRIDAY, SEPT. 24: The events will begin with the decorating of the float at 11:00 AM at the old AB Kelly/AJ Noll Motors building at 401 W. Coates. The decorating will not be elaborate, so it should be fairly easy.
If you are going to ride on the float, meet behind the US Post Office on Reed Street at 3:30 PM (the parade begins at 4 PM). Please feel free to wear the styles of the 60's. If you plan to ride on the float, please indicate this on your registration so that we will know what size truck we need to accommodate everyone.
Friday evening is the Homecoming Football Game which starts at 7 PM against Fulton. Our class will be sitting on the visitors side (so we can all sit together). Don't forget to bring some cash as there is a charge for attending the game.
SATURDAY, SEPT. 25: Steve Crosswhite (and others) will be at the American Legion Hall (the old Van's IGA on Concannon) fairly early on Saturday to cook, decorate, and just generally get things ready for the main event. So, feel free to stop by any time. The actual Birthday Bash will begin at 4 PM. There will be a short program at 6 PM and then we eat! Please dress casually. The event is BYOB, however, we will provide iced tea, lemonade, and water.
Please complete your registration form and send it, with your check, to Sally ASAP, so we will have a better idea of how much meat, etc. to buy, how many tables to set up, and so we'll have the funds to buy what we'll need!
This is going to be so much fun and we hope that everyone will make an effort to get back to share in the celebration of our turning 60.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact a Committee Member.
Have a safe summer and hope to see you in September!

************************* BUCKET LIST ******************************
One of the things we did at the reunion was to have our classmates list some things they want to do before they "kick the bucket". Some submissions for the "BUCKET LIST" are:
Go to Africa - VICKI (MINOR) WEAR
Visit the rest of the 50 states and to have an even dozen grandchildren (NOT!) - DAVID DENNIS
Get my Master's Degree and get a bigger bucket! - UDEL GIBLER
Before I kick the bucket I want to learn to play the drums like a rock star (preferably like Tommy Lee) and I want to learn to dance hip hop, crumping, or any other dance like that. - MARGARET (LESTER) WALTON
Drive a car over 200 MPH and be retired. - GARY ROE
I'd like to be the "last man standing" at the last class reunion.
- STEVE WHITE
Visit the Holy Lands. - GREG WILLIAMS
1. Locate everyone on the "Missing Classmates List".
2. Speak in front a crowd of people without crying or dying of embarrassment!
- MARILEE LEWIS-PALMER
Make to at least one more class reunion and see all my friends one more time. - GLENN McELYEA
Please feel free to email me with your own "Bucket List". I'll add them as I receive them and they can be published under "anonymous" if you want. We'll check in 5 years to see if you accomplished any of them.
