Life After CHS: Pictures

Thanks to Doug Zollo. Wow, a photo showing classmates as young as many of us still feel! 

1959 Doug Zollo, The Links at Dunedin Youth Center Dance

Doug introduced the late Richard “Red” Hunt to our classmate Linda Cono on a blind date. Red and Linda married and had a wonderful life together. I think Jimmy Brock was from an earlier CHS class. Bill Brown went to St Pete High.

1961 Doug Zollo, Terry & The Pirates

When I was a Senior at Clearwater High, our band, Terry & The Pirates, (named after the comic strip) partnered with the City of Clearwater and WLCY radio to be the house band for all City dances and Star Spectaculars.

Danny went on to co-write the first off-Broadway rock musical "Your Own Thing". Jimmy later played the janitor on Dolly Parton's TV show "Nine-to-Five" and also had a part in the movie "Blazing Saddles".
 
One of our regular customers was a guy named Cassius Clay, who later changed his name to ............? (You should all know the answer to this!)
