It appears that several of our classmates and a teacher recently had a reunion as evidenced by the video posted at THE BROADCASTER. Who knew ? (Hint: Be patient for the video to load. It's the first one. And, while you're there, why not scroll to the bottom of the page ?)

Dear Mr. George Jones,
Please accept our sincerest apologies for what has happened to your song "She Thinks I Still Care." It seems as though Jimboreeheehee has been at it again over at "This Just In." At least he hasn't butchered anything by Ms. Tammy Wynette . . .yet.
Even though it may appear that very few people are visiting here, our site meter just topped 30,040 this week. Seems as though lots of people read, they are just very quiet.

Jimboreehee posted this newspaper clipping at Message Forum. Just the kind of memorabilia that should bring a smile to your face, or maybe just a little giggle !

The following is a comment left on the blog, Quite Continental, by Candace Cannon.
So many of the pictures are of my grandfather, aunt and mother. My mother Betty Jean Pratt Cannon died 7/5/11. She was a beautiful lady as was her sister Rita Jo Pratt Lathrop, who died two years ago. Vernon Pratt was there father and in several of your photos. I was very young when he had his circus but still remember… I have several of these photos but so many are new to me. Thanks so much for honoring them in this way. Candace Cannon
and Jeanean Cannon Weaver:
These are such wonderful photographs of my family and the wonderful life they shared making people of all ages laugh and smlle. What a fantastic tribute. Thank you for posting the article and photos. is there any way that I could get some of the originals?
These are of my grandparents, my aunt and mother. I believe there were some of my mother on the trapeze which is now on display at the Frisco Depot in Hugo. I am the youngest daughter and I would treasure some of these photos.
Thank you so much for sharing.

Here is a page from the 1959 Antlers Yearbook. Someone is pictured here who moved to Hugo a few years after this and is in our graduating class.
Anyone recognize this person ? If you put on your glasses, you can read her name.
Fourth row ~ Fifth person: Charla Faye Foley.
When her family lived in Antlers, they owned this:
Larry. Larry. Larry has posted photos of the Hugo69 Supper Club get together on June 18. Thanks Larry. Larry. Larry.

Buffalo Chips & Chat Threads/Forums/Topics Info:
FYI: Many of you still like using Message Forum, WHICH is PERFECTLY OK, espeically (I never said I could spell) especially when we are just discussing fishing and whiskey stills, but here are several reasons that posting at BC&C can be more efficient and also why posting on a person's profile works as well or better than at Message Forum especially when the topic is a bit more serious.
1) You can subscribe to the thread at BC&C so that when someone posts a new topic there, you are notified through your e-mail and can read the message without having to come to the site.
2) The messages posted there are kept under specific headings and can be found easily. At the Message Forum, if you want to find a posting, it requires just scrolling and looking for it.
3) When you post a public message or send a private e-mail from the person's profile, they are sent a notification that there is a message waiting for them. If it's posted at Message Forum, there is a chance that person will never see it.
4) Also, most of us have posted addresses on our profiles, and personal notes can be mailed using the old-fashioned more personal way of sending our thoughts by using USPS.
HOW TO add GIF's to your posts at Message Forum and on Profile Comments:
The directions have been added to the Questions/Answers Thread at Buffalo Chips and Chat.
Another Question ??? : Some are wondering what happens to messages posted at Buffalo Chips & Chat. For instance, a message posted yesterday may not show up today. When you click on BC&C, you will see three columns. Place your cursor on Special Thoughts and Prayers and click on it. (left hand column) That will open ALL the messages posted under this Forum, newest at the top. It will also list the author, how many times it was viewed, and how many replies. Once you find the Forum you are looking for, click on it. Messages can be left on any Forum, just be sure to click SAVE. You can also subscribe to the thread to receive notifications when new messages are posted any where on BC&C.
You will not blow up the site by clicking on things. And if you do, we can fix it !

Welcome to the HUGO HIGH SCHOOL CLASS of 1969 web-site. It is a work-in-progress and will be updated on a regular basis. Here are a few reasons that it was created:
1) to assist in planning our reunions and any Hugo Supper Club events
2) to locate friends who are hiding from us and let them know about our reunion
3) to reacquaint ourselves with each other so that we recognize each other
4) to post photos of reunions and other events for those who could not attend
The web-site and reunion cannot be successful without everyone's participation.
To protect your personal information, your registration includes an option that allows only registered classmates to view your profile. If this option is selected, search engines and the general public WILL be blocked from accessing your information. Any registered classmate who is logged in, however, WILL be able to view ALL classmate profiles.
Class Creator, our site host, assures us that our site will NOT be subject to advertising, that information posted on our site will NOT be sold or rented to a third party--all information is strictly confidential, and that their spam protection system WILL protect us from spam.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to solely, covertly be an integral part of planning a successful 40th reunion. Your computer will self-destruct in five minutes if you do not add to your profile and sign up to attend.
To those who are just visiting and may be planning a reunion, if you do not have a web-site, may I suggest that you RUN, don't walk, to the Class Creator link at the bottom of this page. This will take you to a step-by-step video that is easy to use. The technical support that you will receive is personal and faster than the speed of lightning. Brad and his crew are there to help you create a tool that will insure a successful reunion.
Sincerely, Kathy Smith Schmoldt
