Website is an indirect result of Nevada's All School Reunion 2000 which
was held in Nevada in October. (Thanks to the Reunion Committee
for a fantastically successful event!) As she was unable to attend
the actual Reunion, Mary Woodfill Park began to wonder if we could
harness the power of the Internet (thanks Al Gore??) to revive old
friendships and memories of NHS.
Mary's cousin Tommy Green had already created a site for his Ponca City,
OK graduating class of '64 and she thought we should have one too.
Leader that she is, she immediately delegated a few old classmates to
attend to the details. Tommy very graciously started us off with
much practical advice. (Thank you,
Tommy!)
Fortuitously,
Ray Maxwell still has his 1962 Nevamo and knew where it was! He
got the ball rolling by scanning some pictures and sending them to me to
post. Eventually, I found my own yearbook and scanned some more,
Recently, a friend (thank you Ivan de la Garza) took the old Sounds of
'62 record and digitized it for us. Since I am retired and supposedly
have lots of time, I seem to have acquired the job of putting it all
together. It's been a great experience for me as I have had to
teach myself some web authoring skills (I had no idea how easy it
is! I used Microsoft Front Page. It did it all for me.
I just had to do the typing which was one of the most useful things I
learned at NHS anyway. As an added benefit, I have also reconnected with several class members
whom I haven't heard from in years.) I will be sending out letters
to all class members (by regular mail) in the next week or so. I
have a dream (thanks, MLK) that each member of the class of '62 will be
represented here on this website (besides on the missing classmates
page, that is.)
Other
classmates who have been helpful and encouraging are Joyce Ames Newby,
June LaDue Henson, Ron Hall, and Linda Shoemaker Grubb. I
especially thank June for her help in tracking down all sorts of
information and keeping me in touch with what the reunion committee is
doing.
The
website, however, does not belong to us.
It belongs to the NHS
Class of 62. It's yours.
Please,
Enjoy!
