Dinner
and dancing
at Winthrop College
The 40th reunion of the Rock Hill High School Class of
1961was held on Friday and Saturday, May 4 and
5, 2001. The Planning Committee worked hard to try to contact
everyone all over the country. The new Marriott Courtyard was the Class Reunion
Host.
Starting at 7:00 PM on Friday, May 4, classmates met for an informal drop-in at the Marriott Courtyard.
We all tried to meet and talk to everyone, but it's hard to
bridge five, ten or even forty years in just two or three
hours.
On Saturday, May 5, we enjoyed dinner and dancing at McBride Hall on the Winthrop University
Campus starting at 7:00
PM. Members of the Girls Sextette, led by Judith Bazemore, made a rare appearance during the program.
The Cheer Leaders Cheered, the Majorettes twirled,
and the Band played!! We may
have grown older, but we had not lost our enthusiasm for having
fun. We danced until Midnight to the music of Jimmy Conn and his
band. We may need to have another Reunion soon.
