I share this with you as I am so proud - so glad that I was able to attend and participate of which my dear friend, Diane Ragland and I worked so hard and put our hearts into this along with many others, hoping to keep all our memories alive, our friends in touch....as so many were like family.
We've scheduled a brief tour of Whitehaven High School Friday afternoon, snacks and music at Friday night's "Meet and Greet". Start your day Saturday with free breakfast if you stay at Whispering Woods, then go the the Memphis in May Barbecue Contest Saturday and/or visit some of your old Whitehaven/Memphis haunts, or take a walk at the fantastic Olive Branch City Park, then join us for a delicious buffet dinner and dancing with your old friends (OLD!? Not us!) at the actual reunion Saturday night. We hope you can stick around long enough on Sunday for one more hug and exchange of phone numbers and email addresses with you new old friends.
We had fun at the earlier reunions, and we're going to have at least as good a time this May.
Reservations and checks are coming in. Don't forget to send yours to get the Early Bird rate that ends April 15.
JOIN US!!!!!
Raising the devil and feeling fine....we will always be the class of "69!"
