Short update on Teacher Tribute page
Just 10 days to go until the class reunion. Barbara is busy making last minute arrangements. She found time to verify some information for the Teacher Tribute page for Principle Ed Payne. She drove to the Brigham Cemetery and verified some info I had found online. Appreciate her extra work on all things related to making this years class reunion a success.
Hope to post a complete list soon of those attending this years reunion so we can commit them to memory and I hope there will be name tags as well. Barbara is tallying the list this week.

Web Update to add Facebook link
I found out that you do not have to be a member of Facebook to look at the class page there so I added a Facebook link for those who are and are not members of Facebook, the link allows classmates to visit the Class page Hosted by Dell Smith on Facebook. The web link is located on this page under Links.
Received notice that the High school Alumni page has finally posted the reunion notice that was requested on the 6th of June. I expressed our disappointment that they could not post it sooner. We did apply just as school was letting out for the summer and things like this do take a back seat to summer vacation plans.

Message from Barbara 7/19/09
Barbara ask me to post this note on Facebook and the Class Page:
- Please call or email Barbara if someone wants to come to the reunion and just hasn't sent in their papers?
- What she needs is your dinner choice and they can send/post their bio on our site or email it to the class email address.
- If she knows it is coming then you can still send your $$ to her via after the RSVP deadline using snail mail.
- If she orders the dinner tho it has to be paid for since this is not a buffet like other times. Barbara's number is posted on the web page along with the contact class email address.

This electronic stuff is great! Keep it coming - it's like talking back and forth on the phone only you are able to "pick up" the phone when you have a minute and enjoy the conversation. Read your bio - very nice!

More of the high school is being torn down as we speak/type. It is the section just north of administration and up to the breeze way. I went over and took a few pictures and it really bothers me. Nothing I can do.
