I look forward to it. Maybe some of the many who did not attend will get to at least have some of the sense of connection, continuity and pride that I felt for our alma mater. Thanks again!
David, it was great to see you in person. Later in the week I will create a post with photos and a link to the video.
What a great fun 100th Birthday Celebration this past weekend in our old neighborhood. Only 2 of us from my 1955 Graduating Class were in attendance although we ran into some of their siblings and friends! The volunteers and staff did an outstanding job and the formal program which included a video history followed by personal recollections of students from various decades was very informative. It was nice to see Francis Archer again and Thank You again for all you do to keep our memories alive!
Looking forward to it. I was da class of either 1958 or 1960 depending how you count 7th & 8 th grads at Von Steuben,
This is exciting. I graduated Peterson in 1952.
