The Alma Mater tour '79ers Teri Bauer and Robin Cline hosted tours of both the old and new CHS buildings. The tours began at 10 AM on Saturday, July 11, and ended 3 hours later. Twenty five classmates attended the tours. We saw, among other things, the old building's (615 Columbus St.) tunnels and, of course, the venerable (80+ years old) auditorium.
The Harleys & Hotrods motorcycle run was a great success! Saturday morning, July 11th, 15 motorcycles and 3 HotRods drove through the Black Hills and terrorized the local tourist communities. Thanks again to '79er Kirk Dulany for organizing this reunion event. (See Message Forum topic: Harleys & Hotrods.)
The "sad Huckleberry" drawing above was artitistically provided by '79er Classmate Kim Brown (Fank). Thanks, Kim.
FINAL PREPARATIONS (posted: June '09)
"Cobblers Converging... '79ers arriving from 30 of 50 states and from around the globe!!" (RC Journal, 06/20/09)
The Cobblers of '79 are making history! Pre-registrations and internet "buzz" indicate our 30th reunion attendance will break all known SD high school records. Your committee is concerned the venue will be unable to accommodate such a crowd of Cobblers, so it looks as though we'll be setting up additional facilities outdoors near the lake.
