At the conclusion of the last reunion
we depleted all of our available funds. Planning for the upcoming reunion
will require outlays of monies for venue deposits and miscellaneous
expenses. A number of our classmates have made contributions to the
reunion which has been a big help. However, we would solicit additional
contributions to make sure funds are available as the planning process
proceeds. Anything you can send will be appreciated.
Please mail checks and information to LHS/MHS 1959 50th Reunion, P.O. Box 6595, Lubbock, TX 79493.

A number of our
classmates have indicated a desire to provide a legacy to the schools from
this class. This legacy would probably take the form of a
contribution to the scholarship foundation at each school. One way to do
that, and allow everyone to participate, is to have a raffle. Hopefully,
some of the artists in our classes will donate items for this
fundraising effort. A committee has been formed to explore and implement the
process. As the process continues, information will be posted on both
websites. This will allow those who may not be able to attend the reunion a
chance to participate in the fundraiser.
