Class of '83 Reunion/Richfield "Fun Run"
Message posted on Wed, 2 Jul 2003

Not much more in the way of updates on the 20 year except the fact it will be at Demarcos in Hopkins Friday Sept 26th. I had a couple thoughts though, at the 15 year reunion we held it at Hyland park in Bloomington & a lot of people liked that they could bring kids & family along. How about we just throw an informal get together at Augsburg park the next day? That way family & friends coming in from out of state could throw in too!
One other thing, there is a 5K & half marathon fun run in Richfield this year called the "Urban Wildland Half Marathon & 5K". If anyone from class of '83 {Or any other class for that matter} would like to run in it or just hook up afterwards for a Grain Belt Premium, by all means drop me a line.

Reunite on ClassmatesTV
Message posted on Tue, 22 Apr 2003

I am helping produce a new show for Fox Television called “Classmates”. The premise is that a high school alum comes on the show in his or her hometown to reunite with a former classmate with whom he or she has lost touch. The show is being produced in conjunction with classmates.com, and we’re looking for alumni from your high school who may want to be reunited on television.

We are specifically seeking reunions that tell a unique story and will make interesting television. Possible themes include reuniting a crush; “where are they now?”; cheerleaders who want to reunite; past rivalries revisited; bullies and their victims; prom or homecoming reunions/horror shows; choir or club reunions; or any other unique and interesting reconnections.

Please contact the ClassmatesTV producers:

Hi!
  I'm surprised not to see that Mr. Curry speech teacher died in Dec. 2002 in Apple Valley. He might not have been a favorite teacher to many, but he was teacher after all. I'm ashamed that no one took note of it, when other teachers have been mentioned.

Mr. Marcel's Obituary
Message posted on Wed, 19 Feb 2003

It was with great sadness that I read about Mr. Marcel's death. What a great guy he was -- inspiring so many RHS students in the RHS musicals. I remember seeing my first RHS musical as an elementary student at Portland elementary thinking "I want to do that one day," and in fact, I DID.

It was fun to see "The Music Man" on TV the other night, but they had NOTHING on the RHS version in May of 1981. Russ King rules!

Thanks so much, Martha! What a labor of love this is-- I'm very impressed. Hello to all classmates from class of '81-- I live in Portland now but a part of my heart will always be there in 'ol Richfield-- a great place to grow up.
