LHS Dinner Reminder - The Eatery, Thursday July 10 at 4:45 pm. We have to vacate by 6:15 pm.

At the June 5 LHS Monthly Dinner, results of the reunion survey was the main topic of discussion.Thanks to the (41) classmates who provided survey feedback. You overwhelmingly said to keep it accessible, affordable and simple so the "committee" (dinner attendees) decided not to use the Embassy Suites and to look for a hotel/motel with party room possibilities that could handle us hanging around for an afternoon and early evening with a catered meal. They didn't discuss finding a breakfast venue for the overnighters and early birds but it can still happen if there is interest. Sound good? Tell us what you think in the Message Forum, left tab. Be sure to save it. We'll meet again at The Eatery, July 10, the 2nd Thursday at 4:45 pm. We have to vacate by 6:15 pm.
Let's Have Fun With The '61 LINKS!

• Plan on coming to the Thursday July 10 Monthly LHS Dinner at 4:45-6:15 pm.
• The LHS Guys meet for dinner on the second Wednesday of every month at Mulligans, 6 pm.
• The LHS Ladies meet for lunch on the third Thursday of every month at 11:30 at various restaurants. On July 17th they will gather at Hacienda Real. Drive north at 33rd and Pine Lake to the small traffic circle. After you go around the circle, the restaurant will be on your immediate left.
These are fun, very informal gatherings. We'd love to have you come!

We’d like your help!
PLEASE pass along addresses, emails, cell phones, land lines and health status regarding our LHS classmates. Any phone calls you would like us to make, we will do gladly.
It has always been the goal to compile a complete class list. All LHS students who attended LHS for part or all of the years of fall 1958 through spring 1961. This list appears on this website under “Classmate Profiles”. For most we have their address. But never sure if we’re current. So please, pass along what you know. Any name with no symbol following it, is a classmate who has not joined the website.
Future LHS Class of 1961 Reunion plans will be sent via U.S. Mail to everyone for whom we have an address. The LHS Class of 1961 website may be accessed by any classmate with an email address. To join the website click on your name under "Classmate Profiles" and follow the directions. Much more class information is available and shared regularly on the website for those who would like to use it.
Click "Contact Us" - on the right, top of page.
Thank you!
