BEMUS POINT - Bemus Point and Mayville are probably bracing for the arrival of the SWCS Class of '66 for our 50th Reunion celebration & shenanigans.
Classmates are polishing their golf clubs (Do you polish golf clubs?), shining their dancing shoes and getting ready for two days of non-stop fun - and nostalgia.
Of course, in the intervening 50 years, some memories have dimmed, mercifully enough. Others are vivid.
They will all be on the table for chattering about Friday and Saturday.
In the meantime, here's another gaggle of nine photos of classmates who have said they will be at the reunion the evening of July 1 in Bemus (at the site of the old Surf Club), then Saturday night, July 2 in Mayville at the Chautauqua Suites.
See you there soon, amigos...
BEMUS POINT - We are only a few weeks out from the SWCS Class of '66 reunion, July 1 and July 2.
If you have been in seclusion and are just now finding out about this, well, here's the deal.
Friday, July 1, the class will be getting together in Bemus Point at the site of the old Surf Club, starting at 5:30 p.m. Exactly what will happen after that is up to you. But, just like when we were in high school, what happens in Bemus stays in Bemus.
Unless you blabbed about it. Then everybody in Southwestern knew about it 15 minutes later.
Saturday, July 2, there will be a soiree at Chautauqua Suites in Mayville. There's a cocktail party, dinner, perhaps a few special presentations/events/mishaps followed by dancing.
In all this, Shirley Adams has set up some golfing, too. (Not at either party, the rooms aren't that big!)
Here another blast of yearbook photos of attendees at July's festivities.
See you in Bemus, I hope...
BEMUS POINT, New York - By now everyone should have read Randy Carlson's email about our July 1 meeting at the bar/restaurant-formerly known-as-the-Surf Club.
Sounds like a fun evening and we will even have a space in the restaurant reserved for our Friday night shenanigans, beginning at 5 p.m.
Below are five more SWCS Class of '66 classmates who have indicated they will be at the reunion. Will they be in Bemus Friday? You will have to show up yourself to find out the answer to that.
See you in July.
BEMUS POINT, New York - The remodel of the former Surf Club is stunning...
And that's where we will be for the Friday night portion of the SWCS Class of '66 50th reunion July 1.
Here are a few pix, contributed via Mike Coon... Thanks Mike!
MAYVILLE, New York - My computer went into overdrive (probably from installing a new operating system) so I decided to post another group of photos while it was being sooooooo cooperative.
Plus, Gloria Boutelle was able to get me a photo of DeeDee Tyler, the first shot below...
So this afternoon's Gang of Five is actually a Gang of Six.
And this Gang has all said they will see us in Bemus and/or Mayville.
See you there, too...

BEMUS POINT/MAYVILLE NY - My SWCS yearbook flopped open again this afternoon as I was moving debris, - er, I mean important papers - around on my desk.
And so while it was open I made copies of photos of five more people who say they will be coming to the July 1-2 reunion.
Friday night is in Bemus Point at the old Surf Club. Saturday night is a cocktail party, dinner, and dancing at the Chautauqua Suites in Mayville.
I hope the Chautauqua Suites are a nice as the photos of the rooms indicate. I'm going to be there for both nights!
Here's the next gang of five...
MAYVILLE, New York - Today's Gang of Five includes two amigos I have kept been in touch with some in the last decade(s) - Ward Romer and Bob Swanson.
Ward lives in Ithaca. Bob is in the Jamestown area. (Sorry Bob, but if I try to guess exactly where you live, I will be way off, probably).
Ward came to last year's SWCS 60s reunion in Lakewood. Bob I have seen a few times here in Schuyler County at the annual Bagley Bash in Valois, NY. I missed that hangover-inducing affair this year. I arrived home to NY too late to make the event.
Here are photos of five more classmates who have said they will see us at Mayville July 2. Maybe in Bemus Point, Friday July 1, too.
MAYVILLE, New York - Here is another set of five photos taken from our SWCS Class of '66 yearbook.
These five folks have indicated they will be at the reunion weekend - July 1 and July 2 - in Bemus Point Friday night and Mayville at the Chautauqua Suites Saturday.
If you haven't told Randy Carlson that you will be attending Saturday's event, let him know ASAP. Just click on his name to get his email link...
In looking through the yearbook for photos, I couldn't find pix for Dee Dee Tyler or Don Larson... If either of those folks - or someone else - has a high school photo of either of them circa 1966, please ship it along to me. I will post it in the next batch.
See you in Bemus and Mayville.
