Dear Classmates,
The school year is almost over, much earlier than when we were in school. Graduation is now on Memorial Day weekend, a time when many of us used to go to Lutherhave to put in the dock. Graduation and our Christmas concerts are now held at the Embassy. The date is Sunday, May 28. The graduating class is one of the smallest in history and next year's freshman class is much larger which bodes well for next year's enrollment.
60th Reunion - Registration is now open for our 60th reunion. Simply go to the home page and click on the button at the top labeled CLHS Class of 1963 60th Reunion to find all the details about next fall's festivities. As has been the case since we started this website, you may register online or mail a check to the address given on that page. Maps to the two evening sites are also available there. We hope to see many of you next fall.
Sports News - A CLHS pitcher threw a no-hitter last night against Wayne HIgh School in a game played at Parkview Field where the Tin Caps play. What a thrill that must have been for him! The girls' tennis team is very strong again this year winning the SAC championship for the second straight year. Their sectionsl begins tonight. Our girls' track team has several runners advancing to regionals. We are very strong in distance races in particular. Boys' baseball sectional action always takes place on Memorial Day weekend.
Building Needs - The CLHS building has many physical needs, having opened the year after we graduated. (You may recall that we were supposed to be the first graduating class in the new building.) Since we are really old, that means the building is, too. Right now a fund has been developed to replace the bleachers in the gym. In the coming years many other projects will be started as well. You will be able to help through prayer and any kind of financial donations you see fit to contribute.
Birthday Celebration - Bill Ihssen who joined the CLHS faculty our senior year recently celebrated his 90th birthday. Since he is on our site and reads our news faithfully, you have an opportunity to wish him a happy birthday as well.
Please continue to pray for our high school as they face the challenges, physical and spiritual, which our modern world presents.
