of fun just visiting. We only had eleven again,
but we had a different group of girls. We are
going to meet again on June 24, 2010, at the
Sunset Grill at 11:30 for lunch. Several girls
from out of town are going to be in Albany, so
this is in their honor! Join us if you can.

40th
Reunion
Memories

July 12 - 13,
2002

Virginia Johnson (1962):
Our
reunion was a great success. Everyone was just so happy to be
home and to see everyone else after all those years. I would
truly say it was a joyous occasion. We had an event on Friday
night at the old Carnegie library downtown. It has been
remodeled and is perfect for gatherings. Saturday night was at
Doublegate. About 150 showed up -- we expected about 140 but
were glad to have more. I don't think it could have been any
better. I really think e-mailing has made a big difference,
because we could send out updated lists of who was coming, and
it made the others want to come. We sent out an article written
by one of our class members about Southwest Georgia.

Dan Brooks (1956), husband of Patricia Fowler (1962):
Just read Virginia Johnson's comments about the recent class of
1962 reunion. Of course, I was not in that class, but my wife
Patricia Fowler Brooks was. I only knew about 5% of the people
there, but I had a great time. A word of caution for classes
planning future reunions. Doublegate is pretty damned pricey
for a heavy hors d'oeuvre (you didn't think I could spell that,
did you?) buffet. $40 a person? (and you had to pay for your
drinks to boot). I thought I was in Buckhead instead of south
Georgia. But, Virginia, in spite of the fact that I had to
place a third mortgage on my house to pay for Saturday night, it
was worth it. I really enjoyed it.
