Class of 1978
30 Year Reunion Plans
| July 11, 2008
RE: LHS CLASS OF ’78 30TH REUNION
Dear Classmate,
Who can believe 30 years have come and gone? It seems like only
yesterday we were celebrating the first ever win of our beloved
Vikings/Plowboys over our cross-town rival Wildcats. The Georgia
Bridgemen were a new sight at Martin Stadium and College Bowl in
Jack Webb’s English class was a regular occurrence. Sound
familiar? I’m sure we’re all finding it hard to fathom
it’s been that long ago and now time to celebrate our 30th
reunion.
Plans have been made for a fun weekend Friday,
October 3 - Sunday, October 5, 2008. Our Hospitality Room
and accommodations will be available at The Comfort Inn, (aka “The
Sheraton” to us old Vikings!) located @ Exit 16, I-75 &
Highway 84. Detailed hotel information is attached for your reference.
A block of rooms has been reserved for our class, so get your reservations
made early with the hotel.
The weekend activities are outlined in the attached
agenda. A Reservation Form
showing costs of event is also included for your completion. Complete
the form and return with your check to:
LHS Class of 1978
P O Box 4671
Valdosta, GA 31604.
Please have your reservations submitted to the committee by August
31, 2008. We would also like to invite you to log on to www.lhsvikings.com
to update your alumni profile. This site is a good way to keep up
with our classmates and to share news of upcoming events.
For more information, please give me a call @ (229) 251-4606 or
email to rball29@hotmail.com.
We’re looking forward to an exciting weekend of fellowship
and reminiscing with our Class of ’78. We hope you will join
us!
