Just checking in
This blog looks like a lonely place as there have been few visitors. I'm going to keep it up until we have had our 50th year reunion which will be next summer. If you have any comments please send them to Bill Echols at whe100@yahoo.com. Thanks!

Next Class Reunion 2009
I think I'm talking to myself as no one ever reads what's on this blog. So again if anyone reads this please send me a note. We have about 15 months until the next reunion. Now is the time to start forming committees, planing the dates and making reservations. Bill E.

Reunion Letter to Classmates
Dear Class of 1959 Classmates,
Your feedback has indicated the weekend of 6/29-7/01 is best for our upcoming reunion. There were conflicts with all three alternatives, but this weekend was preferred by a good margin. We hope the single conflict with this weekend may be worked out so all who want to attend can do so.
Please notify Pepper Ashford whether you plan to attend or not...as quickly as possible...so intelligent decisions may be made concerning requirements for the various meals and facilities. Mary Bell and Billy Echols are leading local efforts to tie down details, but Mary has already obtained the following helpful info about hotel alternatives. It may be helpful to mention Mary's name (and our renion) to ensure the rates quoted below. We encourage you to make your reservations quickly. In order to enjoy the benefit of having many of us in the same hotel, we are recommending the Holiday Inn Express (#1 below) as our "headquarters" hotel. It's unlikely that this hotel (or any others) can accommodate us all...so we encourage you to make your reservations as quickly as possible.
1. Holiday Inn Express...Contact is Nicole at 662-324-0076...King size bed = $74, Suites = $84...no doubles or singles...Complimentary breakfast is provided along with high-speed internet access, computer in Business Center, health/fitness center, swimming pool, etc.
2. Hampton Inn...Contact is Claire at 662-324-1333...King = $84.60, Double = $80.10...Breakfast is included as is internet access, computer, swimming and passes to Sanderson Center at MSU for exercise...companion motel with Comfort Suites
3. Comfort Suites...Contact is Mary at 662-324-9595 (but she is very pregnant and may soon depart)...7 Doubles (@ $99) and 26 Singles (@ $94) currently available...Breakfast included along with pool
4. Hotel Chester...one Bridal Suite ($175), Queet Suite = $105, Deluxe King = $95, Extra King = $105, Standard = $80...Contact is Christine Holland at 662-323-5005. Mary B indicates there are several "bar type rooms" available at the Chester (potentially providing opportunity for "party after party" if any care to partake) and this location is walking distance to the Starkville Cafe (one alternative for potential group breakfast)
More info will follow but we hope this will enable you all to firm this event on your calendars and to make your travel plans. We're looking forward to spending quality time with many of you in early Summer.
