The
intent of this project is to provide a mechanism for having a
meeting of those who wish to get together for an informal BS
session on a regular repeating schedule. It is initiated in the
belief that once off the ground, the enthusiasm and
participation by the class members will be substantial enough to
make it fly, and it can then be shaped and constructed in
accordance with the expressed wishes of the group. The initial
program is to provide a meeting schedule in
Pine Bluff
every odd numbered month. This is currently in place and active.
Consideration and feedback should be given to finding a location
in
Little Rock
and establishing an identical plan to be initiated on the even
numbered months. Our lives dictate that most of us will not be
able to make most of the meetings of course, and the plan is to
provide ample opportunities for those who can and wish to, be
provided with a way to renew friendships and keep in touch with
people who are very special to us all. The power driving this
train will be the feedback given by the class members through
the process that is now provided by the classof61.net. Having
established a reasonably effective method to communicate, it is
now time for the legwork, which is to get in touch with as many
class members as possible, direct them to the site, and allow
the process and their own wishes to prevail. We started with
less than a half dozen known contacts, so your assistance in
getting the word out is imperative to the success of this
effort.
In
reference to this effort, I would like to offer a heartfelt
thanks and a couple of atta-boys to the group of
derelicts……..Ah! ….Oh!......I mean…….group of fine
class mates responsible for making this boat float. The core
group making this happen is: (in
alphabetical order) Tommy
Case, Gary Duncan, Joe Pat Davis, Butch Greenwood, Bobby Kientz,
Dickie Lawrence, George Lemen, Rick Skillen, and Paul Wright. Many
thanks guys. When you see any of these guys, give them a
hearty “thank you.”
