Update: The class reunion was held on
September 8, 2007 and was the most sucessfull reunion yet. We had
over 280 people in attendance from the four classes. The
atmosphere was great and a good time was had by all.
The newly remodeled Country Club looked better than most would
expect. Dan Arthurs is to be complimented on his great
contribution to the city of Cherryville. Very special guests were
able to join the reunion, Coach Bill Hinson and his wife, and also
Larry Johnson (math teacher & asst. coach) and his wife. Bill
Hinson spoke to the audience and said that the six years that he lived
in Cherryville were some of his most memorable years of his life.
Students that were coached by Mr. Hinson were asked to stand and a
large number of his players were on hand. The Band (The
Beachnuts) was mainly made up from members of the classes of
69,70,71,72. Some of the members and classmates were Rodney
Bridges (drummer), Billy Cooke (keyboard), Curt "Pee Dab" Dellinger
(bass), Randy Howell (sax), Gary Howell (rhythm guitar), and Stan Allen
on lead guitar. Other members of the band we want to thank were
Phil Davis, Gaylord Bralley, Wade Stroupe, and Cindy Stroupe who were a
fantastic vocal group.
Many thanks to the committee members
that have worked so hard to put on
such a wonderful outing. Special thanks go to Carolyn Black Cooke,
Debra Carpenter Hord
and Reggie Beam for their leadership in bringing everything
together.
Thanks to Rodney Bridges, Billy Cooke and Stan Allen for getting the
entertainment together. The entertainment was beyond
compare. It has been a pleasure to be a part of such a great
group of people.
Thanks to Dessa Hampton Millwood for getting the special gifts that
were raffled off and given to special guests.
