Welcome friends and family of Brainerd High School Class of 1969 & other

May 1969 the senior class of Brainerd High School said good bye to classmates and teachers leaving our mark as the first graduating class from the new high school. Teachers and parents and our community joined together to give us the best academic education possible.
An education that has well equipped us with the basic 'life skills' that has enabled us to live successfully in the world today. Whether it was one year, or more this was our home, and at The Brainerd High School we made a lifetime of memories, formed eternal friendships, and learned invaluable lessons that helped to shape and mold us into who we are today.
We now have 422 left of the 465 classmates (430 graduated from BHS on May 29, 1969)
Brainerd High School Class of 1969,
42nd annual get together information for 2011
Date: August 6th, 2011
Time: 6:00 pm
Place: Shep's on 6th in Brainerd
RE: Our annual get together
This is just an update to fill you in on our 42nd annual get together.
The class of 1969 committee met on April 1, 2011 to discuss where the 42nd Annual get together will be held. It was decided that it will be held on August 6th, 2011 starting at 6:00 p.m. at “Shep’s on 6th” Street Brainerd. The address is 315 South 6th Street, Brainerd, MN. Their telephone number is 218-829-4835.
This is just a get together so no formal arrangement has been made with Shep’s, we felt that if we have the same number of people that we had at last year’s get together, which was between 40 to 45 people it shouldn’t make a difference to an establishment of that size if we just show up and meet there.
If you have any question please let me know and if you want to stay in touch with us just keep your e-mail information updated with me.
If you don’t want your e-mail address posted on our website just let me know and I will keep it in a secure location off of the class website and use it just to notify you of our class outing’s etc.
Bye for now and hope to see you in August.
If anyone would like to comment on this please send me an e-mail and I will share it with the rest of the committee.
Regards,
Tony
