Plans for our 55th
Preliminary planning is underway for our 55th, probably mid to late August, 2014. Anyone wishing to work on this event should contact Sue Fischer Cheeley. Current thinking is this will be a low key event, not splashy, probably an evening dinner. Following up on earlier suggestions, the Classes of 1958 and 1960 are being invited to join us if they would like to do so.
If you have any news you would like reported here, send to nancysowdenburton@gmail.com.
In Memoriam Additions

More than $3,000 Raised . . .
. . . to fund the first Class of 1959 Scholarship at the May SHSAA Scholarship Banquet.
Our scholarship winner is Samantha Shobe. She was in athletics, Key Club, Fellowship of Christion Athletes and PEERS. Enjoyed playing Varsity Girls' Basketball and Soccer. In 2008 she was the most Improved Player for soccer. She did volunteer work in numerous concession duties and helped the school raise money for organizations such as UNICEFand the Red Cross.
She is planning to attend a four year college and graduate with a nursing degree. "Helping people has always interested me and pursuing a carreer in health care would be a great opportunity."
Thanks to all who supported this effort . . . donor list will be published later.
