Classmates of IHS '64!
 
    July has arrived - with heat, rain, sadness in communities of mass killings, unsettled news on the national and international levels, etc.  Where are the "good old days?"   As has been reiterated before, our generation might have been the "best of times" -- but yet,  we had traumas also -- war, assassination of a U.S. president, high school classmates dying during high school or just after graduation ..... OR .... was our  "easier life"  just a figment of our imagination??  We have to remember that we are resilient beings and we just need to "relish the moment" and enjoy life when we can!!

    Speaking of enjoying life - two functions to enjoy this week:
  • North Baton Rouge Reunion to be held on Thursday, July 7th from 4 P.M. .... at a NEW location - The  Pastime Restaurant and Bar at South Blvd. and Nicholson Drive.  Our class usually met up there after we had been at the big event -- but -- this year -- we will already be there!
  • IHS '64 Monthly Luncheon at Franks Restaurant on Airline Hwy. by the new Amazon Building at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, July 8th  which gives us a chance to visit and stay connected with our classmates.
    As the fireworks fade away, try to stay cool during the month of July.  It seems looking at the national map that hot days are no longer just in the deep South -- but showing up all over the U.S.  Oh Yes -- the humidity is supposed to make it hotter here -- but it also helps our skin not to dry out.  We have to always look for that "silver lining" -- it helps to make us more resilient beings!

    Stay safe, stay well and stay in touch.

Send us your data for our database

We  published a 50th Reunion Booklet that was given out to everyone at the July event and wanted to include as many listings as possible. If you weren't listed or want to change data - addresses, phone numbers, family info, and what you've been doing, please contact us.  Many of you have been contacted recently via phone or email by the Reunion Committee and we have up to date reports.  However, there area a lot of folks with old data on file, so if you haven't already done so, please send us your data using our convenient new online form or the traditional printed "snail mail" version.  We would hope that most folks will use the online form since it reduces the amount of typing the committee volunteers have to do! 

See the section above for several ways to send us your data.

Missing Indians

We've maintained and updated the old classmates list from our 50th reunion and will use it and recent information to keep our database current. A list of "Missing Indians" has been posted and will be updated each week as we find people and move them to the "found" list. Please help us find the missing classmates and faculty members.
 

Send photos and news

In case you haven't visited our Gallery Pages, there are many photos there that classmates have scanned and emailed to us for everyone to see.  Send us your photos along with captions.  Scan at 300 dpi or less to keep the size down.  Send to ihs1964@yahoo.com  .

Everyone likes to read news about their friends from school, especially if they are out of touch or far away. So, send us news to include on our website.  Just email to ihs1964@yahoo.com .
