Don't forget to contiune to spread the word about this site. We still have a long list of alumni that we are trying to locate from the c/o '89 and it seems that "word of mouth" is the best thing so far.
Hey Chaun! Okay, I love the pic of us! Why didn't you tell me you had those. I know who to come to for pics since my moms pics got destroyed in the flood of her basement. She still can't talk about it.....anyways, thanks for the memories!
Alumfest was really nice. I haven't seen so many people in so many years. I hope you make it to the reunion next year. It would really be good to see you.
