We had a super time. Weatherman forecasted rain but we only had a light
mist from time to time until 7 PM when we
were about to leave anyway. the temperature
must have been in the low 70's--very comfortable. We had about 80
people. Two couples who had paid never came but then 3 classmates came without
a reservation.
Cary Rush did a great job doing name badges sporting the high school
picture of each classmate. he donated his
time and materials. Made recognizing people a
lot easier.
Marlene Martin must be commended for compiling 50 trivia questions on
events in 1953 and she had sheets printed
and almost blew the motor on her electric pencil
sharpener, honing 48 pencils. Lots of groans when we started the quiz
consisting all kinds of topics movies, music, science, politics, medicine,
media but everyone enjoyed joking around once we got started.
We had "joke" prizes and of course, we gave out those nice pens
that Bob Friedenberg sent all the way from
California.
Ray (Carl) Schaeffer was up from his new home in South Carolina. He had
been in charge of the balloons for the 40th
reunion. Luckily the woman he had sold his
florist business to--still had about 50 gold balloons with "Class of
1953" printed in black. He filled them all (
eight years old and still usable) with
helium and helped decorate the tables. We owe him a big thank-you.
Ted Etling brought a 1930 gold antique car and had it on display. Many
people had their picture taken next to it. It was
generous of him and fun.
We not only took snapshots of people in general but we had group pictures
of Lincoln classmates who also attended
elementary schools together Fox Chase, Crossan
and Forrest.
