 30th REUNION SURVEY

Please take a moment to check out what people have said about our reunion and while you're at it, fill out questions 11 to 20 to give us feedback about future reunions and use of the ClassCreator FH Class of '80 website.  Go to:  30th Reunion Survey.  You must be signed on to participate.  You will not see individual classmate's answers, just collective results of the survey.  If you weren't able to attend, we hope you will be able to make the next one.  

The Reunion Committee continues to keep in touch and will begin planning for a possible and popular idea for a "50th Birthday Bash for All" in 2012.  Some chatter has begun and plans will be announced soon. Look for a POLL to participate and have your voice heard and also to get your feedback.  Remember, this is YOUR party, give us your ideas.  Possible Dinner cruise on the Potomac leaving from Old Town or gathering at someone's house this summer.  If you feel like you'd like to be a part of this, let us know through the website.

 It's hard to believe that we have been out of high school as long as we have. There have been many changes, experiences, heartaches and triumphs in our lives over the years. Let's face it, high school was a very strange time for us; hormones, self-discovery, uncertainty, friendships, cliques ... but that's in the past. We've grown, changed and endured.

 

 

 "Our Friends Are A Very Important Part of Our Lives.
Treasure The Tears, Treasure The Laughter,
But Most Importantly, Treasure The Memories."

Now, check out this video below to bring back some high school memories.  This video was'74-75, but not much changed since then when we attended Fort Hunt!
