Well being the august baby I'm one of the last to turn 70, I keep saying the number so I get use to the idea! Nevada sounds a little far to gather , lol, but the cape sounds fun! 

Suzanne Pike (Seri)

70 is huge!  Every day is amazing.  Pauline, I remember Humarock-fun times!  

Wish we could have a 70th bday party for our whole class somewhere.  Combo reunion/bday party.

Cape gets ridiculously crowded in summertime.  It's nice right now-no snow, not too cold, not too crowded.

Party on!  Thanks for all the info on Burning Man too.  A bit far, but sounds like fun.

Uh, oh, maybe a summer mini-reunion at Fourth Cliff in Humarock?  As a veteran, my husband can reserve the outdoor Pavillion overlooking the ocean and river surrounding the peninsula.  Maybe we could do a "Burning Rocket-Man" on a grill, or on the beach (if the climate allows for open fire pits on the beach.  BYOB, potluck, order your own Bridgeway pizza ...  We're even planning our annual stay there mid-June.  🔥🚀😎

Fourth Cliff is a great idea for those who are local. I would definitely drive up for it. I never knew it existed until 2004, as it is a relatively unknown spot. When we were getting ready to deploy to Iraq in 2004, my unit had a send-off cookout there and it was great.

I am aware of Burning Man but never had the desire to go. If I am going to travel to party, I am more likely to go to Sturgis.

Being 70 is great; but having headed West in 1975, my memory of things back home has begin to fade...I had to Google Humarock to find out where it was!! I may need to return just to recharge my memories!

Pauline Harwood (Wright)

Humarock would be oerfect, it's where I spent my summers from 1962-1976.  Top secret, even though I have a vacation house in maine, I wanted to spend my 70th birthday with my family at my fav place on earth. Unfortunately nothing big enough available for august 10th, so I found a place for sug 27-sept 4. Essentially Labor Day weekend . All booked, I'm having a party on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend for fsmily and a few close friends , but hell ya I can def get into a 1953 70th birthday party! Down humarock !  I'll even dj 

Pauline Harwood (Wright)

So Andy when people would say, where the hell is humarock, I would say, that's why I go there!  It's too crowded anyway , and we didn't have to get in all the cape traffic

Burning Man Humarock!

Carol Atwood (Toran)

A lot of chats here about Humarock. Love the idea mostly because we have been fortunate enough to have sumers there since the beginning of covid. My daughter has also made use of the 4th cliff housing.  4th cliff is a hiden gem made available for the military. I am only hesitant because of the limited parking issues at Humarock at the public beach and at the 4th cliff area.. The 4th cliff maybe a good place to have a party. I am pretty sure you would have to  be military to sponsor any kind of party.  Maybe we can chat about that Jim O'niel. It would be so much fun to have some kind of beach patty. All good ideas.
Any other ideas please chime in.about location ideas or timing. Everyone could bring their own. I am hoping  we are talking about off season as I imagine alot of us will be busy during Sumer. 

Suzanne Pike (Seri)

Whoa!  Awesome pic of Burning Man!  yes, Humarock, I remember it fondly.  Here on the Cape it is ridiculously crowded, for sure, in summer.  Lots of crazy stuff happens here in winter too.  Every time we have a power outage, it's because someone has driven into a pole, or a bird has fried itself by standing with 1 foot on 2 separate wires, causing a 3-hr power outage.  

Everyone's thinking about their 70th, I can see!  I already celebrated one with Linda.  Mine's end of March, my fam is already planning a 3-day trip to Boston (haven't been anywhere since covid, except for our kids' home in Needham) and some family dinners.  Hiow did we get to be 70?  So cool!

Happy planning, Pauline!  Woohoo, Linda, & everyone who is already 70!  My weight and age are rising together...not optimal but at least I work out a lot.  sigh.

Pauline Harwood (Wright)

Carol , maybe I'll see you down there' it was your inspiration that got me looking for a place!

Richard McManus, Maybe you could bring a 12 to 18-inch version for Humarock?  🚀😎🌊

Does anyone remember who was class valedictorain?
Someone is asking I think it was Jeff Bliss but I am not sure. 

James Papadonis

Paul Lemaire

Philip Hopfe

I am thinking it was Jeff Bliss as well......

Pauline Harwood (Wright)

I think it was Janice Lee, ir Norman Rehn 

Suzanne Pike (Seri)

Is it in the yearbook? In 1 pic I think I see Jeff Bliss in a white jacket w other grads behind him...maybe he and Janice Lee were both valedictorians?  

Philip Hopfe

Now I'm confused...... was Jeff Bliss the class President ?   I DO know I wasn't the valedictorian!  Funny how we can remember some things.

 Still a bit cool here on Vancouver Island.   There was snow on the mainland in the higher elevations yesterday.  It helped with some of the massive wildfires raging across BC so that was good....

June is known a "Juneuary" in these parts. 

Hope everyone is enjoying the start of their summer.....Take  care and be well everyone 😎

Pauline Harwood (Wright)

Jeff was president of student council , but I don't think  valedictorian 

Pretty sure it was Norman Rehn and Janice Lee I have a weird memory

Lol 

Pauline Harwood (Wright)

Yeah Phil , you are right! 
 I wasnt either! Homeroom buddy ,

meanwhile glad the rains and snow helped with the fires , we are still getting smoke from them off and on in Ma, and in Maine 

Kenneth Brier

I suggest that there was no official class valedictorian. Our class Graduation Exercises booklet does not include any mention of a valedictorian.  The Program includes the "Presentation of Prizes and Scholarships" by Harry Walen, but the lengthy list of scholarships and prizes makes no mention of a valedictorian award, and neither does the Program mention any valedictorian speech.

And yes, Jeff Bliss is listed as the Class President.

Michael Davis (Davis)

I believe the honor goes to Hunter Biden. He's the smartest man I know.

Hello Everyone,

Bruce Canney was voted President of the NHS class of 1971.  Jeff Bliss was the VP.  Bruce dropped out of high school in his senior year so Jeff became acting president of our class.  The student council was a different group.  

As for validictorian, there was a woman named Laura (can't remember her last name) who might been the one.
