Please help us spread the word to our

let your buddies know about the reunion. We’ll do a snail mailing once we
have an up-to-date list of postal addresses. Hope to see you in August!

Reunion T-shirts Available!
Check out this website
http://www.alumniclass.com/tfriggs
. It has Riggs High/Governors tee-shirts we can order.
I don’t believe you have to pay the $10 registration fee to place an order.
You can select from their designs or design your own. It was suggested
by a classmate that we order tee-shirts to wear at the reunion, especially
the picnic and Drag Euclid event on Sunday, Aug 8th.
Updates Needed:
Please help us keep in touch by sending in your new address or email address
if they have changed! Our mailing list has aged and needs to be
updated. Please send your new information to the email address shown

Your “Get Connected” Team:
Penne Bloom Garry, Gerry Boocock, Dave
Lindekugel, Larry Kleinschmidt, and Cathleen Ducey Pendowski.
Here's
some great SD music to help you get ready, compliments of
Christine Albert and Chris Gage (Riggs
Class of '72). We hope you'll come home next summer.

The T. F. Riggs High School Class of 1965
40th Reunion was a resounding success!
(Read Monte's
Review!)
The mixer on Friday was wild. A couple of
teachers showed up! The 60's DJ was excellent and everybody rocked until
way past bed time. Saturday we hung out at the Legion Cabin, by
the big tent we had set up. Tom Noble and Paul Mitchell gave motorcycle
rides to take people by the house they grew up in--nice touch.
We had a good turnout at the banquet. Saturday evening started with Paul
Mitchell presenting a candle light memoriam for the 15 deceased
classmates, Paul read a poem written by Larry Kleinschmidt. Jack Kennedy
gave a great tribute for our Veterans.
The website received praise all around! We passed the hat and collected
about $600 to be used to continue the website into the future. We
even made the front page of The River Life newspaper: "The Class of 65
Comes Home"!
Many thanks goes to the
Pierre Planning Committee, the
Get Connected
Team and others for all the time and effort put into making this reunion
such a spectacular event. Thanks to all who photographed the
events! We have almost
400 photos available here on the
website!
Here's a little something for the strays
among us!
