GREETINGS CLASSMATES!!
 
IT WAS A GREAT REUNION!!
It was the best reunion we've had.  You may think I'm bias but classmate after classmate gave the same praise throughout the weekend.  If you don't believe me ask your friends who attended. 
 
I've posted some pictures from the reunion on this site.  If you have some you would like to be added, send them to Dayna0595@aol.com.
 
Over and over again classmates said that this reunion raised the bar.  They also said they expect an even bigger and better 25th yr reunion.  To make that happen we need your help.  IT'S TIME FOR OUR ANNUAL THANKSGIVING BASKETBALL GAME.  It will be Friday, Novemeber 24th @6p.  Your classmates will be playing other classmates in a winner take all game.  Last year's sold out game resulted in a loss for the Class of 86.  It's time for us to have our revenge and win our dignity back.  YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS!!  You can purchase tickets for the game and after party from this site for just $10 or contact one of your committee members.  Children can attend the game for just $2!  The game will again be held at the YWCA just west of 15th & Broadway.  The afterparty will be at Mingo's just west of 11th & Grant St.  This will be our only fundraiser this year, please support your reunion.  I hope to see you there.
 
If you have ideas for the next reunion, send them to Dayna0595@aol.com
 
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
While we've reached out and invited hundreds of our classmates, there are still hundreds we don't know how to contact.  Please have a look at the Missing Classmates page and let us know how to find them.
 
 
 
 
Check this website periodically for the information on more fundraisers and the most up to date information regarding the reunion. 
 
We will also send communications through Classmates.com, email and snail mail.  Please register on Classmates.com and email the reunion committee your most up to date address, phone number and email address.  Please also spread the word to all classmates you are able to reach.  This will help us reach as many classmates as possible with the latest information.
 
If there is anything you would like to share with our classmates, like what you've been up to lately, pictures, or cheap tickets you've found for reunion weekend, post it on the site!  Go to the Contact Us page and click on Sign My Guestbook.  
 
We're so excited and hope that you all can join us!

Roosevelt, Dearly Loved

'Mid sand dunes and purple hued skies

A temple of knowledge there lies

Enhanced by nature and soft dove cries

Roosevelt, dearly loved.

It gives us the faith that we need

For lifes noblest lessons to heed

And courage being our daily creed

Roosevelt, dearly loved.

Its colors bold ever black and gold

Bearing valor, justice and might

A faculty in regality

Teaching all the virtues of right.

For e'er may its portals ajar

Stand beacon to men near and far

To light their path as a guiding star

Roosevelt, dearly loved.

-- Words and Music by San Bonita Slaughter
