After living in Scotland we moved to Belgium and now living in the Netherlands again. Wish I could attend the 45th reunion but financially it's simply not possible and I can't drive a car anymore. Thinking of you all fondly.

new video/song for class of '77 reunion:
https://youtu.be/rt9Xrd1ztsg

Triple XXX X = XL (it's yuge!)

Dreadnaught ‘77 still kickin’ ass
Roll back the clock? I’ll have to pass!
Take some time, & roll in the grass…
...or go ahead, freakin’ hit the gas!

Well, it’s reunion time & I’m feeling tight,
Got a long way to feelin’ alright.
But I won’t go down without a fight!
I’m gonna die soon… just not tonight…

And it’s yuge! ...yeah, it’s really yuge!

She has come from far away,
Not much time for her to stay.
she can’t express what she wants to say,
reunion noize gets in the way!

And it’s yuge!, ... yeah, it’s freakin’ yuge

Triple X plus X, Triple X plus X

She struggles with life, loves her family a lot
Wants to do better, gives it some thought
She’s got a plan, it’s really hot.
Now she’s in her pj’s in the parking lot!

Timmy was bored, squeezing his purple....
(there’s no word that rhymes with purple)
Hmmm, gotta think of something quick…
…a purple nurple? (That’s just sick!)

But it’s yuge! It’s freakin’ yuge baby!
Triple X plus X! Triple X plus X!

...I’ll see you again, I’ll see you again, I’ll see you again, I’’ see you and again and again and again….

I personally think it is going to be the best one ever. Please take a moment to buy your tickets and book your room.

Hope to see you all John

Hi Everyone. I last signed the guest book about a year and a half ago. My family and I are doing fine. After LHS graduation I spent 20 years in the USAF and retired. Living in the Netherlands since that time and doing well. I have a home here not far from my stepchildren. They have children of their own and live goes on. Don't know if I can make the 40th anniversary reunion but I'll try. Wishing everyone well and love you all

Hi everybody. Wish you all the best. Did anyone else see the holiday safety video on delta Airlines? David Lang is the guy doing the safety presentation. I flew a lot so saw it many times and always told whoever I was sitting by that "I went to school with that guy!" Too funny. We know a celebrity!

Hi All,Not sure if anyone remembers me but I went to Southwest Junior High then 1 year at Lakeland Senior High. I would have grduated with you in 77 but because of my dad\'s job we had to move. I spent 2 years in Nevada and my graduating year was in San Diego. Because I did not have enough credits to graduate I had to go to summer school. I have always felt that Lakeland was my home school. I so remember alot of you here. Some friends that are still in my memory are Lori Veale, Diane Penn and Skip Scisim..I stiill have my yearbook. I would love to be added to any upcoming reunions. it would be a blast from the past for me.

John Morgan

Posted on the 2012-08-06 at 20:00

The reunion was great. The cruise was a blast. Wow what you missed if you did not attend. Class of 77 still rocks. Start planning now for 40! Hard to believe all this time has passed.

Hey gang. Leslie and I have been kinda brain stormin\'. Found a 4 day Bahamas Cruise our of Port Canaveral (Orlando) on Sunday the 22. I leaves at 4 PM and arrives back at 7 AM Thurday the 26th. It is just a fun cruise by Carnival. The starting is $373.00 for basic Cabins for two. There are upgreades available on this one also. Would be fun. Can we get an idea of those interseted. We could use the same Travel person we used on the 50th Birthday cruise if we get enough intersest and maybe get a group rate.

Leslie Murray Stamps

Posted on the 2011-10-20 at 20:00

Is there a cruise leaving out of Tampa or Cape Canaveral on Sunday, rather than Monday, of the 2012 reunion weekend? For those wanting to cruise after the main reunion, especially coming from out of town, it would be nice not to have to spend 3 full nights in a Lakeland hotel before heading to the cruise ship. Just a thought ...

Sid

Posted on the 2011-10-03 at 20:00

I like the idea of the 2-day event but does anyone think that Friday was SO MUCH MORE fun than Saturday (at the 30th)? I vote casual/semi-casual for both events - maybe make the Saturday heavy horse doovers instead of sit down (the food\'s never that good anyway). I liked the whole idea of beach party too. Not sure if I could do the cruise but cruisers leave on Sunday sounds like a plan. July 21 is a good date! Let\'s go!!

Joe Torra

Posted on the 2011-10-01 at 20:00

Hello to all of you... I know I did not graduate with all of you but have lots of good memories from Lakeland. Would love to be involved in your events if OK with you. Have been talking with Bridgette Karr.... anyways. let me know...
thanks in advance...joe

John Morgan

Posted on the 2011-09-03 at 20:00

Yes Blakely we had a great ATL 34th reunion with more minis to come. Here is my two cents....I say another three day event like last time. One "icebreaker informal" event on Friday night. One kinda semi-formal dinner thing on Saturday night and then split it up to a family picnic again on Sunday afternoon and then a 4 day cruise for we "cruisers" on Sunday afternoon also. It is my understanding that there is a 4 day cruise leaving on Sundays out of Port Canaveral. I think it is Carnival. Then it is the best of both worlds. I LOVE July btw dates. Still summer vacation time. Shawn would be glad to help out this time.

Blake Viele

Posted on the 2011-08-30 at 20:00

The Atlanta contingent of LHS had a wonderful reunion on 8/28/11...I guess it was our 34th....

Leslie Stamps

Posted on the 2011-07-25 at 20:00

Regarding the 2012 reunion, a cruise sounds great since many of us who went on the last one had a very fun time. However, there are LHS classmates who don\'t like to go on cruises or can\'t go on one due to timing, financial or family issues. Having only one day in Lakeland as part of the reunion prior to a cruise doesn\'t seem to be fair to the classmates traveling far to get to the reunion, and many may then choose not to attend. A suggestion is that we have a 2 day reunion in Lakeland, and not do the 3rd family day -- instead, those wanting to go on a cruise could head for the boat that 3rd day.

Rick Beale

Posted on the 2011-07-25 at 20:00

Re: July 21, 2012 reunion date. As long as it\'s inside, that\'s why we moved it to October, which is still too hot.

Current rumor has a one-day informal reunion party/mixer and the next day classmates leaving on a cruise. I\'m not a cruise person as are some other classmates I see on a regular basis. Therefore, I would like to see a second informal get-together for us "cruiseless" and to make our reunion worthwhile for those that may come from out-of-town.

Debbie Dee Culley

SOPHOMORE THUMBDITTY!!!!!

Just kidding...KIDDING! :)

Hi, sophomores, from Pat Peters, class of \'75. Special shoutouts to all the members of the first year ROTC class when I was Battalion Commander in \'74-\'75!

Sad news... On our site (lhs75.com), I read that Sergeant Major Cruz (later advanced to Captain due to time-in-rank as acting Captain during Viet Nam service) died in \'08.

Robert O. Cruz~age 80~July 1st, 1927 - Feb. 3rd, 2008~Lakeland, Florida

We also lost Mr. (Harvey) Flatt, social studies teacher (with the WORST hair EVER) in \'09 and some others. The full list is on the memorials page at our class\' site (lhs75.com).

Anyone I knew from the 1974-\'75 school year, PLEASE feel free to drop me a note and say hi. My email is pep.1956@yahoo.com.

And I was just kidding about the sophomore thumbditty thing...really. ;)

Hi all
I'm hoping this site will get a message to any LHS alumni who wants to know as I'm not on facebook (o.k. I'll work on that! But in the meantime, those of you who are, could you all spread the news to whomever would like to know) -----Mr. Charlie Fuchs is finally retiring!
Lake Gibson High School in Lakeland is having a retirement drop in "social" from 1:30-3:00 this Friday 1/22/01.
Any of you who have found memories who'd like to write a short note to him (keep it nice!) you can send it to me and I'll get it in the book they are putting together.
He plans to retire and spend most of his time fishing!

Hello All my LHS Buds and Budettes,

Hope all are well. Listen.. I just started a Facebook Page, it is aswesom, keep up with my kids--they think it is very cool. Keep up instantly with family and friends. We all loose touch and it is difficult to stay in touch. I reccomend it!! We could all see what is going on with each other, keep in contact and it is easy. Just Do It.

Peace and Love to everyone!

EVeryone go to Facebook and look at my homepage, or Mary Richard's home page, or Suki Westra Janisch's home page or Scott Schiltz home page and see some more cool pictures. Don't know why they are not downloaded on the photo page here yet?

Nancy Calabro Stone

Posted on the 2009-10-27 at 20:00

What a great time!!! Even my husband who didn't know anyone when we got there had a great time and enjoyed getting to know everyone. Thanks to the team who got it all together for us. Thanks to Beth Huntzinger for holding our table on the boat so we could all hang together. Also thanks to John Morgan for making the Sunday night Quest game the most memorable and fun time of the cruise. (Hopefully he'll let us post some of those pictures.) I can't wait to go again and I hope more of you dreadnaughts will sign and sail on the next cruise.

John Morgan

Posted on the 2009-10-26 at 20:00

Unbelievable......we WILL do this again. All who passed it up will want to come for sure. Wait till you see the photos. It could be an annual event if we have enough. Out of 741 Classmates surely we can get bigger every year. Thanks goes out to Nancy Cyphert, Kathleen Dozier and Shawn Eady (oops forgot married name) for all your hard work and making this a great time for us all. Keep those pictures coming. The "sailing" Dreadnaughts rock. We have a permanent place on the bar in a little beach bar in Cozumel thanks to Mary Richards. All will know we were there!!

Kathleen Strain Delozier

Posted on the 2009-10-20 at 20:00

Can't wait - see you on board.

John R Morgan

Posted on the 2009-10-18 at 20:00

Well I just checked in on-line for the cruise. I am in cabin 8639. It is labeled "large interior stateroom" and I am hoping that is correct. I think we registered late and are not on the same deck as everyone else. I am hoping we all have the 8:30 pm dinner seating time. It is only three days away and starting to get excited.

John R Morgan

Posted on the 2009-10-14 at 20:00

Didn't get a cabin number on my paper work. Are there many flying in on the 22nd. Leslie Murray Stamps and I are sharing a cab to the port I think. Anyone else game? Or as just a blanket question how is everyone getting to the port?

nancy calabro stone

Posted on the 2009-10-06 at 20:00

Ahoy all you sailors. It's almost time and I was wondering where everyones cabin is. Ours is 3019. Where are yours?

On September 10th at 12:06 PM, my wife and I were blessed with a second grandchild. The baby's name in Divinity Jade. She was 8 lbs even and 20 1/2 inches long. Sammy, oru grandson is still not sure what to make of his little sister.

John Morgan

Posted on the 2009-09-17 at 20:00

Guess I had better set a new goal. No longer have time to loose 20 lbs before the Cruise so I had better try 10!!!!!!!

A cruise sounds wonderful but I will have to pass on this one. We live in Oak Harbor, Washington where my hubby is still active duty Navy. He is deployed to Afghanistan until April 2010. We have a son that will be a senior in high school next year.
Washington is a long way away from the port of call and although I have a wonderful son, I do not want to leave him "home alone" while I am off crusing. LOL!

As most of you know, Mr. Miller had records made of the band performances 1975-1977. I have the records and have converted them to MP3 files. If you would like a copy, email me at: debbyelliott100@gmail.com I am selling the CDs to recoup my costs. They are $10 for one and $15 for both. Let me know if you are interested in having this bit of memorabilia. Also, check out the band site on facebook. It was started by John Morgan and it is a fun place to reminisce.

Hello fellow classmates,
I'm back in Germany (since April 2008) and it looks like I will be here awhile. Just wanted to share that I auditioned for the German National choir and was notified last week 2 Jun 2009 that I am now a member. So, this coming year will be full of traveling for me.

Hoorah. Anchors Away my boys!!!!!! We need T-shirts that say something like "finally the Dreadnaughts set sail"!!!!! The art could be a Dreadnaught ship sailing away with a "red devil" being thrown off by the wake of the ship! My Birthday is May 29th. I was going to New Orleans but had to stop by the hospital. I am going to Scotland to celebrate May 22. Happy Spring.

I like the idea of a 35-year reunion also, as Neil Combee referenced in an earlier post. I missed the 30-year, and I wish I had gone! I would be willing to help out on a committee to make the 35-year event happen. Also, I think the Reunion Cruise is a great idea! I'll keep checking back to see if it's going to happen. This site is great. Thanks to those who put it together.

Great website! I went to LHS my Sr. year - class of '76. It is so good to see blogs about some of the people I knew back in the day. I cheered with some committe members: Shawn Eady and Terri Jackman. Friends with Mike Carter, Debbie Kippenberger Carter, Frank Puissegur, David Lang (I was just loking at an old picture of David picking me up in English class). I mostly hung out with Debe Messenger. Dated Neil Combee for a while. Don't know if anyone would remember me since I was there only one year, but was excited to find the website and see your names. Would love to hear from anyone! Although most of my friends were from '77 (obviously the most happening class!), wish I could find some '76 people, too, but it doesn't seem to exist! I get down to Florida every now and then and will check for reunion events now that I've found you.

Hello everyone. Happy to report a Tommy Anderson sighting. We took the 4 girls plus 2 friends to Amelia Island for vacation this week and found Tommy living the high life on Amelia Island.

Tommy and his family are doing great and even though he is a just a little more serious, Tommy is the same old Tommy. I told him he needs to come here and get caught up with everyone.

Wow! I accidentally ran up on your website and began to browse and reminisce. Perhaps it's me, but I don't remember y'all looking so old at Southwest Jr.

Seems like you had a big ol' time - maybe I'll smuggle myself into one in the future.

Be good.

Well, I was planning on spending a little more time in Florida, but life got in the way. Tomorrow I am flying back to Germany with my two dogs and Husband in tow. I'll be there about 4 years teaching military "stuff". I enjoyed the reunion and am looking forward to the next one. The planners get a standing "O" from me. I will be in touch.

It was good to see everyone that was able to attend the wrap up party at Lewis and Brenda's ranch. As usual, the ladies did most of the work. I urged those in attendance to consider going to see Paul Thorn at Skippers Smokehouse in North Tampa on the 24th of February. The show begins at 6:00 and Paul thorn is scheduled for 8:00. I have never been to Skippers but Shawn and Burl have and they say it is great. You can google Skippers Smokehouse and Paul Thorn to get an idea of what to expect....sort of mini reunion-valentines day party. Thinkaboutit!

Posted on the 2008-02-02 at 19:00

Kudos to everyone that had a hand in planning and setting up the wrap party. Special thanks to Lewis and Brenda for *loaning* us their little slice of peace on earth for the party. I enjoyed seeing everyone again and I am sorry I had to cut my stay so short. til next time, peace and be well.

Belated Happy New Year to Everyone, hoping the holidays were as wonderful to each of you as mine. Got to spend the Holidays with My Family in Lakeland on Christmas Day, a lst since Shaun was a little guy and now he is a Senior - were does time go????? Well the party is officially planned thanks to Brenda and Lewis (and Lewis's helper Neil Combee - hey Neil once again thanks for the Jacket in Avon Park when the boys had a day at SFCC playing baseball, you never know who your gonna see). The menu is wonderful, the refreshments are being chilled and the guitars are being packed up to travel. The map should be on the website by tomorrow on how to get to the ranch - you all will get to adventure were the Debs spent many a years at Homecoming time making floats. Please if you plan on coming let me know if you have not already, I would like to get Brenda a RSVP list by Friday so they make sure they have enough food to go with our refreshments. LOL

Can't wait to see everyone again and remember this is our lets talk about the good, the bad and what could have been done different AT THE REUNION meeting, won't take long.

If you are unable to attend visit our MESSAGE BOARD (Shawn you rock with getting new things for us on the website) and post your thoughts and see me as a 48 year old cheerleader. LOL LOL

Thanks for the wonderful reunion guys and gals! Really enjoyed the camaraderie. But after looking through the pics I realized that I didn't get a chance visit with a lot of old friends! Never seems to be enough time these days. And thanks for letting us Phoenix boys (and Suki too!) play some rock 'n roll Friday night, it was an honor and a lot of fun. Maybe I should've kept some of those "adult" diapers that the girls were throwing around - might need 'em at the next reunion! Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

I too would like to thank all of the committee members for all their hard work so that we could have such a wonderful time.

I all for a wrap up party also, let me know if I can help! Thanks again. Debby

I would love to have a reunion anniversary party or a 35th or whatever we can come up with. Ten years is way too long. I'm having those reunion withdrawals too! It was great seeing everyone!

I too want to say a big THANK YOU to all who worked so hard for our fun. It was such a great time!!! My friends in Atlanta wish I would shut up about it. You are all so special and made me feel that way. I didn't realize I had so many friends!!! Can't wait for the "wrap party". Please let's have a 35th. I would be glad to help. Tell Ben that I have 5 years to loose all this weight I have put on!!! To all you Atlanta Dreadnaughts let's plan our own get together soon. Happy Holidays to all and remember GOD is good all the time........ Love John

For those with children and or grandchildren nieces and nephews...go to you tube.com and type in Radney Foster Godspeed....watch the music video. It has to be one of the sweetest things you will ever see. Radney wrote the song for his son after he and his wife divorced and she moved to France with their son. There are several videos on you tube. View the one posted by tomscotland. Make sure you have kleenex nearby. The video will make a lasting impression on sentimental folk....I promise!

Thank you to all those who worked so hard to put this reunion together. It was fun, but over so quickly. There were many people to visit with and I seemed to be more shy than I really am now. I wanted to go and sit at every table just to get get to know each of you again. It was great for those who traveled a long way. Glad you could make it. I live in Ocala now, so for anyone who wants to visit horse country or the Silver Springs attraction where Tarzan was filmed, just invite yourself over. We have plenty of space and are about 15 minutes from I-75. Marion County is a beautiful place. All my contact information is on my website at www.MaryWHalter.com or www.bign.com/jmhalter
