Thanksgiving Memories


I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I know my family did. I suppose everyone is gearing up for the Christmas holidays. So many of us are parents and I know it is a time to get ready to make Christmas special for our kids. Remember when all we thought about was the two weeks we would be off from school?

I wanted to share a personal memory about basketball. Thanksgiving still reminds me of practicing and playing a lot of ball this time of year. Our school hosted the "Frenship Turkey Classic" (please forgive me if I got the name of it wrong...that is what is stuck in my cloudy head) and I remember even practicing one year on Thanksgiving day. Does anyone else remember basketball this time of year?

Since I'm talking about basketball, an interesting thing to note is the movie "Hoosiers" was filmed about 20 minutes from a house we own here in Crawfordsville, IN. Do the basketball girls remember going to see that and the manager coming in and having to ask us to be quiet?

I can't stop thinking about all the fun times so long ago and I can't wait to reminisce with you personally!

Find a Frenship Friend


If you found this blog by way of search engine, maybe you don't have a Myspace or Facebook account. If you are interested in reconnecting with everyone, consider putting a page together, especially a Facebook one. Not only are there over 40 people from our class on Facebook, there are a lot of classmates from other years as well.

We would love to see at least double the amount of peole at this reunion as last. If you talk to anyone from our class, be sure to pass on the word on the blog and even Facebook!

Pictures, pictures, pictures!


We are hoping to have a great slide show at the reunion with pictures from the past. Please start digging around and see what pictures you can help us out with!

I have had a few people tell me some of their high school things are still at their parents homes. Well, with the holidays approaching, this would be a great time to pull some of them out.

It is amazing how far technology has come, even since our 10-year reunion (I mailed my pictures in and got them back after the reunion) and obviously we can do some scanning and e-mailing.

Also, I just wanted to make sure that if anyone has anything they want to see on this blog, please let me know. I do not want this to be mine, but for all of us to reconnect!

By the way, I talked to Trish and they are shooting for a reunion sometime in July. She will let me know as soon as they do.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! 2009 is approaching really fast. Unbelievable it has been 20 years since we saw so many people!

Frenship Class of 89 20-year reunion

Hello friends from Frenship! I am trying to do my part here in Indiana and help out with reunion plans. I have never done a blog so I don't know if I am the best person for the job, but here I am and please be patient with me.

I hope this will be a place we can all use to get the word out. As of right now, I do not have a specific date to give you, but I know Trish (Arredondo/Roberts) will let me know as soon as they do. I do know the reunion will be sometime this summer, 2009.

I look forward to the next few months catching up and I am so excited about the reunion!!
