What we have done so far
planning for the 55th |
We held a "Sip and Paint" on February 3
at the Watertown American Legion as a
fundraiser for
the 55th. We had 26 participants (8
of which were classmates) and raised
$468. Jackie Tunstall
donated a coffee basket to raffle
off and we gave each painter $3.00
for a drink. In the next week or
so we will be meeting again to
finalize plans. We will post it in
case anyone else wants to join us.
We aren't getting a good response
from classmates so far. |
Can you help out our scholarship
fund! |
We want all classmates
to know that our
scholarship is
struggling financially.
Our treasury is
dwindling and we don't know how much
longer we can continue. A very
generous donation of $1,000 was made at
the informal get-together on August 23
which helps greatly but we have a long
way to go. That classmate has
challenged the class to help out by
giving whatever you can.
Please
consider
donating to our
scholarship
fund. Some may
choose to
provide a clause
in their will.
Others may opt
to make a
one-time
donation and
there are many
options in
between. Please
consider helping
us out.
Students in need
will be very
grateful.
Visit our
scholarship page
to make a
donation.

How
Many Were In Our Class? |
Several class members have done
extensive research to try and determine
exactly how many students graduated with
us. The results are somewhat
inconclusive but you can read all of the
details
here. |

We
Are Still Trying To Locate Classmates |
Despite exhaustive efforts by committee members, we
still have not located several classmates.
One of the goals of the committee is to continue
looking. We will be
posting
information on this website soon regarding those people
we haven't located. Please contact Mary at 315-921-6134 for more information.
If you haven't yet done so, please
complete the class member information survey ...
