Dear Bunkiens------Dan LaFleur
continues to arrange a good time for the BHS class of 1957.
Dan asked me to 'spruce up' his writings, but I like it the way
he put it------I hope you do too.
Dan Writes:
"Dan LaFleur, a 1957
graduate of BHS, wants to remind all of his classmates that the
class will have an informal get together at the Bailey Hotel
on June 9, 2007 (Corn Festival weekend).
No activities or events are
planned, just socializing and remembering our BHS days. Dan
will set up a table at 6 pm in the hotel lobby as a gathering
point (look for "BHS Class of '57" poster).
Earlier in the day some of our classmates will have lunch at
The Dugout about 11:30 am. If you are in town, please join
us.
All other BHS graduates are most welcome to have lunch with
us and/or stop by the hotel in the evening and visit with us.
Help Dan and the Class of '57 spread the word about the
informal reunion and, also, the Corn Festival. What a great
way to get together and show our support for Bunkie."
Until next time...
