Did we have fun or what?  And who was that nutcase in the afro wig?   Must have been Dan Quinn or someone.  Actually, the old men shown above are (left to right):  Tim Pike, Ben Hestir, Dan Pike and Lanny Pike.

After paying all of the bills for the reunion weekend events, donating $150 to the Gosnell High School Key Club for their babysitting efforts, and donating $125 to the Spence Gordon Memorial Scholarship fund, we are still $503 ahead.  These funds will be used  to establish a trust account to benefit the school.  I would like to hear from each of you on how you think we could best support the school.  I would like to establish a memorial scholarship in the name of Drew Duclos and also donate some general use funds to the school. 

In addition, I donated the 5-CD changer that I bought for the reunion event in Memphis to the high school.  Penny (Davis) Teeter said that they needed one for playing songs during football games and at various other functions.

Send me your scans or prints and I will post them on the Reunion Pictures page and return them to you unharmed. 

The 1999 reunion was held on the weekend of June 18-20 in Memphis, Blytheville, and Gosnell.  We are still trying to contact members of the graduating classes of 1977 - 1981 for the alumni database.  It will remain up until the next reunion.  Five years will put us at 2004.  Mark your calendars!

If you have contact information for anyone not listed on the Alumni Database please forward it to us or have those people get in touch.  Submittals or updates to the Alumni Database can be submitted using the Submit Your Info Form.
