Delia High School Reunion June 2
This is to remind everyone that the annual DELIA HIGH SCHOOL reunion will be held on June 2nd, 3013, at the north end of the old schoolhouse, starting at 11:00 AM (with lunch being served at noon). If you want to enjoy the lunch being prepared and served by the Delia Pride Committee, please send your check for $12.50 per person to Marvin Burgett, 12921 NW 62nd St., Rossville, Kansas 66533 no later than May 15th so we can let the Committee know how much food to prepare. On the other hand, if you do not want to have the lunch, come to the reunion anyway.
Much thanks to Marvin Burgett for succeeding Francis Wehner as Treasurer; to Colleen (Brock) Oberle for preparing the memory books; and to Christina (Bowe) Brennen and Marla Bowers for setting up the pictures and tables. Also much thanks to the Delia Pride Committee for preparing the wonderful lunch. Because I won't be able to attend the reunion this year, Marvin Burgett will be your master of ceremonies with the able help of his wife, June, and Francis Wehner.
This year, we honor the 50th anniversay of the Class of 1963. We are hopeful for a good turnout of the 1963 class members!
I look forward to seeing you at next year's reunion.
