We're on FACEBOOK!

Just added a group to Facebook.  The group's title is Louisa High School 61.  I'll have to invite you in however.  So if you want to be invited you need to email me at vickisoo@mac.com OR comment somewhere below.  Either way, I need to know your email.  Thanks!

More folks.

I just talked with John Wright (New Jersey) and Sam Lyon, and Cheryl Pauley Henderson by email.  It's coming, it's coming.  I think there are enough of us in Kentucky--and this is retirement year (66 years old) for most--that we probably need to plan our timing around those that are far away.  Herbie, John, Dickie, Karen, etc.  Sam said there's another venue in Louisa other than than the same-o same-o . . . at the new Methodist Church on the hill.  Sounds like a possibility.

Herbie, LInda B., and Karen Rose

I've heard from Herbie Rice-- who's still at NASA--, Linda Bradley Boggs, who's in Louisa (on the Huntington Circle on Facebook), and Karen Rose Chapman--in Florida. Thank goodness I finally thought to look at Facebook. I had been going through Classmates.com and getting nowhere (except for Dickie).  

I'm so tickled to get a reply from Dickie Damron.  He's in Philadelphia and working for Boeing. I'm terrifically impatient and shouldn't have expected to hear back from ANYONE yet, so it's wonderful to get his reply.

I haven't gotten all my emails out, yet, so some of you haven't heard from me because of that.  But I only have a handful of addresses, so I need help telling others.

FIFTY YEARS! SOON!

2011 will mark the 50th anniversary of the LHS Class of 1961.  I think it's about time we begin the task of planning the party, don't you?  

The FIRST thing we need to do is start putting together a mailing list -- which will require help from all of you.  See the comment box at the bottom of this post?  That's where you can add comments or information . . . OR, if you're shy, email me at vickisoo@mac.com.

I have SOME of your email addresses/mailing addresses and am 

  hoping  the first of you who get the message about this blog will 

  share with others . . . and that we'll eventually get them all.  I 

  especially want somebody to tell Clyde Adkins in Louisa about 

  this AND ditto Sammy Dick Lyon--wherever he is now--

  (Huntington??, Louisa???).

The SECOND thing we need to do is determine the date we'd like to have our reunion. 

Several other classes have scheduled their own reunions to coincide with the big, grand, everybody-who-ever-went-to-Louisa High School Reunion (as opposed to Lawrence County High School) which always occurs on a "middle" Saturday in June.  This year it was on June 13th.  

You needn't get your feelings hurt if you have never gotten an invitation to the everybody-who-ever-went-to-Louisa High School event because it's always been up to YOU to get your name on the mailing list.  The committee that runs it is a hardworking group and I'm including their names and telephone numbers TO THE UPPER RIGHT--just in case you'd like to let them know you want to be added to the list.  Unfortunately, they aren't communicating by the internet YET (as far as I know), so it's going to require a little effort on your part to be included.  THIS everybody-who-ever-went-to-Louisa High School IS NOT THE CLASS OF '61 REUNION.  Promise me you won't get confused.  

The Class of '61 Reunion is it's own thing and we can start here and see where it goes.

In case you're wondering who I am . . . I used to be Vicki Sue Cheek.
