Announcing a new Facebook Group and a new Blog


We have created a new Facebook Group called

The Childress (Texas) High School Classes of 1960-1966

Created for anyone from the Childress (Texas) High School classes of 1960-1966 who is looking to reconnect or connect with former friends and classmates.

If you are currently a member of Facebook or if you are planning to become a member of Facebook, we invite you to join the group. Contact either Nicki or Jennifer for information.

You are also invited to visit our new blog, Voices From the Class of '63,

Marriage Bobcat Style

Thursday, July 31, we will begin a new series of posts entitled, Celebrating the Journey: The Power of Love. The goal for the project is to explore the question, “What is the secret of a good marriage?” All of the couples selected to participate include at least one spouse from the Class of 1963, with most having graduated from Childress High School. An added benefit for this project will be the opportunity for us to get to know each other in a different way other than the 18 year old classmates of the past.

During the past month, we have sent requests to many of our former classmates asking each one along with his/her spouse to consider participating in this project. Amazingly, the response was almost unanimously positive. Apparently this is a topic of great interest and we are so excited to begin the posts. Even more gratifying is the fact that many who have agreed to complete the questionnaires that were sent to to them are old friends who have not previously appeared on the blog. For those of you who have not yet been asked to participate, I assure you that we welcome every one and I will be contacting more of you as time goes on. However, if you would like to contact me prior to that, it would be a blessing to have you.

As the completed questionnaires are received each one will be posted on this (the main) blog. Because we consider these posts to be so special, a new blog (Celebrating the Journey) has been created so that we can move each one there for its permanent home. However, once again, because these posts are special, we want them to first appear where everyone can see them easily and then revisit them on the new blog as desired.

On Thursday, the first post (our mystery couple for now) will be featured along with a wedding photo and a today photo. Be sure to check it out.

Nicki, I think this is a wonderful idea of a new series, and I join you in the hope that we get a good response from some of our classmates.

I am looking forward to the first installment ... and the pictures and learned/earned wisdom of the "mystery couple....
