Lee 2015 Reunion Committee Meets

 by Glenn James

LHS '65

        The Class of 1965 Reunion Planning Committee with the support of the Classes of 1964 and 1966 met at Gibson's Restaurant on Friday, Feb. 27, 2015.

        We have accomplished much in one month, the Marriott Hotel has been booked for our reunion. We have selected our committees and they have begun to help make this a very special reunion.

        So save the "DATE"  for our 50th reunion.

Sept. 11 - 13, 2015

And as always this is a combined reunion of the Classes of "64, "65 & '66, but with a little extra for the Class of '65. 

        We are all Fami-LEE and like the Class of 1964 "Still Crazy After All These Years!!!"

        We will be letting everyone know later how to come join us and celebrate our 50th reunion.

        Below are the minutes of the meeting as taken by Rose Marie James.

        Memphis, TN - Last night after getting the Traveller all ready to publish over two hours of edits and all the content of the planned issue disappeared. This is not the first time it has happened to me. I click on "Save" and it says it is saved and later when I want to quit the program it will only stop after I click "Don't Save". Since the issue has been previously saved, logic demands the previous saves should have been saved - but they were not. Having just returned from our last home game which was lost with a missed shot in the last six seconds, I was too upset to stay up and try to redo it last night. But here it is. Thanks to all the contributors, which numbered 5 this week. One item submitted by Collins Wynn will be save for a later date.

 

 

Who Are You?

(Boop-boo, boop-boo...)

        With this past week's winter weather still chillin' our bones, we thought it might be time to look back upon warmer times. This picture was first posted on Facebook, but since many of you do not use that program, I have reposted it here for you. Can you (non-Facebook users) name these bathing beauties and identify the location? Answers and photo credits next week.
