Instructions for First Time Visitors

Please read through these instructions. You'll find important information here that will maximize your experience using our site.
 
 
 

On this page you will find the following:

 
 

1. THE PURPOSE OF THIS WEBSITE

This site was created to contact and re-connect with all our classmates.  Those who want to attend milestone reunions/ celebrations, and those who won't make it to an HBW event but want to connect with HBW friends.  Our second goal is to make this site a scrapbook of memories for all classmates and their families. Our site is private!

Setting up your profile enables you to access to the rest site.  It's easy, but if you have questions, please contact Ray Anderson.  Message Ray at this site or email HBWReunion@gmail.com

2. PRIVACY NOTICE

All contact information (address, phone number, e-mail address) that you enter into this website will be kept confidential. The personal contact information you put in your profile never be sold, shared, or distributed.

Your contact information is private; your street address, e-mail address, and phone number cannot be seen by classmates. You can restrict/ unrestrict the visibility of your profile to only fellow classmates in the Profile Visibility section when you set up your profile. If you do not opt for privacy on this line, your profile can be viewed by non-members such as your friends or family.  AND NOTE your profile will be fully indexable by major search engines.

Verify your Profile pages are restricted by searching for Google (or other search engines):

  • If you are signed on to the site and restricted your profile to only fellow classmates, and then use a search engine to see if the privacy options above are working, it will appear they are NOT. This is only because you are signed into the site. Sign out and check again. You will see that none of your profile information is viewable by non members.

Emails can be sent from this site using the contact option at the top of each classmate's profile page (just look under the classmate's main photo in the upper left). This way you will be able to contact classmates without sharing your private email address.

All class Email news sent from us to you via this web site: For those of you with spam blocking or email filtering capabilities, please add noreply@classcreator.net to your email account.

Please note that if you do not want your name and picture on this site it may be removed by contacting Ray Anderson. This will end all communications to you from the H-B Woodlawn High School Classes of 1972 - 2018, unless you ask that special arrangements be made.

3. SETTING UP YOUR PROFILE

To set up your profile: go to the "Classmate Profiles" link and click on your name. Follow the prompts to create your profile.

The personal contact information, like your email addressb and phone numbers, will not be visible to fellow classmates. We collect mailing addresses in the event that we need to contact you by snail mail or phone. Your information will never be given to other classmates without your permission.

We encourage you to add a current picture to your profile as a master photo. This photo will be displayed in various areas around the site. It's also helpful to upload an additional "Now" photo, and a "Then" photo. Classmates will enjoy seeing how you've changed!

If your name is not already on the site, but you were part of the H-B Woodlawn High School Classes of 1972 - 2018, contact us and your name will be added.

Updates: If you change your email address, snail mail address, or phone number, please update your Contact Info so we have up to date information. That way you'll always be in the know about what your classmates are up to!

Passwords:

Choosing a password: Passwords do not need to be the high security style recommended for some sites.  Clicking the "Remember Me" will allow you to bypass entering the password each time you visit.

If you forget your password simply click on "forgot password". If you have several email accounts, and you don't remember the one you used to set-up your account, contact Ray Anderson. This could take a while so please be patient.

4. "MISSING" CLASSMATES

The site manages a list of "missing" classmates, defined as the people who haven't set up their profiles yet.  So until you have a profile, the site will consider you "missing."

Please note: We need your help to contact EVERY classmate. If you have information about any classmate, listed or not listed, please contact Ray Anderson

5. COMMUNICATING WITH CLASSMATES

To contact an HBW classmate, use the email option (top left of each Classmate's Profile page - located under Master Photo).

This feature allows you to connect while protecting your personal email. If you wish to share your email address or other personal information within the message, go right ahead and do so.

6. ADDING PICTURES TO YOUR PROFILE

Adding current pictures is not a requirement to participate on the site, but it certainly is a nice way to get to know people again. We've had reports of classmates who were routinely running into each other without knowing it, because...well....we've all changed a little over the years! :)

  • Click "Edit Profile" under MEMBER FUNCTIONS.
  • Roll your cursor over the Master Photo, Then, Now, or Yearbook photo silhouette (note you cannot upload a yearbook photo if one has already been provided)
