Dear Bunkiens------Dan LaFleur is orchestrating a reunion of sorts for the BHS class of 1957.

 Dan Writes:

The BHS class of 1957 will  have an informal get together at the Bailey Hotel on Saturday  evening, June 9, 2007 (Corn Festival weekend).

 

Help me and the class of '57 get the word out.

And oh-by-the-way--------------All other 50's BHS grads interested in stopping by are welcomed.

Pulling this off during the Corn Festival is a great way to get together and show our support for good old Bunkie.

Hope to see you all there----------------------Dan"
