Satruday Afternoon
Saturday afternoon we walked around the high school and looked at everything and shared our memories. The high school staff was very kind to leave all the classrooms open for us to go into. We all decided that they are still using the same tables, chairs and desks 30 years later.

Friday night ten of us rode through the fair parade tossing candy to town members and water balloons at members of the class who didn't ride the float and our families.
30th Reunion A Success
I am finding that I seem to do a better job of photographing peoples backs instead of their fronts. Sorry about that. This section of pictures are from the banquet on Saturday night and the picnic in the park on Sunday morning.

5 Days and Counting
Ready or not Dighton, KS here comes the Class of 1977.
Friday Night: Class float in the parade. Meet at the high school parking lot at 5:30. Parade is at 6:00 p.m. I believe. I am taking my lawn chairs to the fair grounds and we can sit and visit out there. If you plan to ride in the parade you might want to bring a bag of candy.

Friday night in July
Hello all, I have just found out that on the Friday night of our reunion, Dighton has their annual parade. I am asking one of my brothers to provide us with a trailer so that we can ride in the parade as a group. Please bring along a lawn chair. We will ride the float out to the fair grounds and then we can spend the evening there visiting with each other and our families can play.
If you have any great ideas for decorating our float let me know.
Thanks,
Celia
