Dear Rose,
By now you should have
received your invitation in the mail for the reunion weekend.
If you have already perused
the invite, you can easily see that we have a terrific weekend planned
for you! If you have not yet given the invitation a look, please do so.
You will find the entertainment and activities to be a great way for
YOU to enjoy a time of celebration with old friends and make new ones.
We will be sending monthly
emails with reunion information and stories of our past. Here is a bit
from me:
You know...misty water-colored memories of the way we
were...Like me being kicked out of physical education class and made to
see our principal, Mr. Classen, for kicking a volley ball AFTER Mr.
Ford blew the whistle...shameful of me, I know. Funny and strange now,
right? But hey, remember...back then, girls could not even wear slacks
if it wasn't below a certain temperature outside! Yep, we had a LOT of
rules!
This reunion is really about
YOU. Reunions are fun, especially when we have now reached a time to
reflect and smile about those things we remember with joy. So, perhaps
you have a memory of a grade-school buddy/friend, a great teacher, a
funny day in junior high or high school, or perhaps at a game, or a
dance, or Queen Anne Kiddyland, at Big Reggie's Danceland, choir trips,
the Washington D.C. trip. We all had varied
experiences. Many have become quite funny after the passing of 50 years!
CLASSMATES, SEND ME YOUR STORIES!
We will celebrate them with
you and our classmates. We will share your memory (with your
permission, of course) in these future updates. If you have a story
and/or a picture you would like to share, please email it to me:
We look forward to hearing
from you.
Check these communications
out. They will be fun, hopefully give you a laugh or initiate a memory
of someone or sometime you have not thought of in 50 years. Think of
it! "How the heck did we get here so fast?" This is the comment we have
heard from many of our classmates.
Watch for monthly updates
and learn more about the plans for our 50th - parties, details and
interesting factoids about the Southwest Class of 1965!!!
Your classmate and
friend,
Mark Simmons
and Your Reunion Committee,

Clarren (Class President), Gregg Corwin,
