What is it with July 2nd?  Looking over the pages, I notice my last post was July 2nd 2012 and while mentioning that 25th reunion planning had begun, I also had to relay the sad news of a death in our "family".  Sadly I find myself doing that very same thing again July 2nd, 2013!! 

First, the good news!  As indicated below, we've been working on the details of our 25th reunion.  I'm happy to report that the dates have been set!  As of now, the events consist of the following;

Friday Nov 1st
@11am – Golf at Chickasaw
@6pm – Cocktails Heffernan Hall & CBHS Football Game

Saturday Nov 2nd
@8pm – Cocktails & Burgers at Ernestine’s ‘N Hazels Backroom w/ Jerry Finney

***All Liquor and Beverage donated by Buster’s Liquors & Athens Distributing

The Committee is working to making this the most affordable we’ve had. The November date avoids most major SEC football weekends. Please email Josh Hammond at regarding your status on attending any of these three events. Once we have a better understanding of the attendance number, we will then posts costs for the Saturday night reunion.

For more information, be sure to check the Class of 88 reunion page on Facebook; https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/336119126462906/

And now on the sad note side; as indicated below, we lost Sam Nowlin to an ATV accident last year year and now comes news via Byron Freeman's post on the Facebook reunion page that we lost Edward R (Eddie) Smith on April 4th of this year.  I don't have any details beyond what Byron posted on Facebook, which was essentially his obituary which didn't give any details, but if anyone happens to know what happened and would like to let us all know, as with the message below about Sam Nowlin at this same time last year, feel free to either post it here or send me the info and I can post it myself. 

While we're on that subject, we're still missing 41 fellow graduates, at least from having completed profiles here.  Some of you may know how to contact them (see Mising Classmates page), and if so, please ask them to check this place out.  It'd be nice to know everyone's status and know that the "In Memory" page correctly stands at only 3.

July 2 2012

Ok folks....well hard as it is to belive, we're now approaching the 25th anniversary of our graduation from CBHS, and so some of us have gotten together on Facebook to start planning.  While the actual event is probably nearly a year off, getting a headstart is never a bad idea!

So, if you're here looking around again or for the first time, feel free to add some content.  Photos, messages, etc, are all welcome.  I know I haven't really done anything with the page in the last 4 or so years (as evidenced by the last message before this being an after-party report!) since I started it, but after the 20th, I kind of let it slip.  That said, I plan to start revamping and adding content myself here and there.

On a sad note, for those who might not have heard, we got word the other day (approx June 27th) that William Samual (Sam) Nowlin was killed in an ATV accident in Willits California on June 23rd 2012.  What little I know about it I picked up from Chuck Frase and Mike Graber via posts on Facebook.  I've added what little I then found on Google when I switched Sam's profile from "Missing Classmates", meaning we never got good contact info for him to let him know about the 20th, to a "In Memory" profile.

If you know anything more about Sam, feel free to add it or to let me know and I'll add it.  While you're at it, check the "Missing Classmates" page and see if you can help locate any of those we're still missing!

Regards,

Scott
