High School Class of 1966 Holds 43rd
Reunion - October 19,
2009 Submitted by Jim Ross
The THS Class of 1966 had a great
turn out for their 43rd reunion held
Saturday, October 17, 2009 at Good
Hope Baptist Church Fellowship Hall
in the Blair community. Spouses, teachers,
and friends joined the 25 graduates
as more than sixty people attended.
The reunion started at 1:00 pm with
a lot of reminiscing, visiting, and
looking at old pictures. Later in
the afternoon a tour of the high school
was led by Pat Crawford, a THS teacher.
Everyone enjoyed seeing the classrooms
where they once sat and talking about
the different teachers. All were impressed
with the renovations, additions and
the new sports complex. A group picture
was taken on the front steps of the
high school and another back at the
fellowship hall.

brought a cake with the entire graduating
class picture on it.
