Looking Back to Our Senior Year

In the coming weeks, I hope to include pics from our class yearbook as well as various odds & ends that will take us back to the glory days of high school.

To start off, here's a nugget contributed by Gernot Kunz who found an old compact cassette with a recording of "Before the Parade" from the 1980/81 CHHS musical "Hello Dolly." Click on the link below to listen and enjoy.
