Just wanted to congatulate Jennifer Hicks on her marriage to Mike Vogel. I've known Jenny since Elementary school(Lowell), and when I saw her at our 30th Reunion with Mike...she was absolutely glowing! Good wishes & God Bless! Lisa
 
Clay   1978   Check this cool link to U-tube... Karyss Gonzalez styled us out with this one... the link does not post well here.. it is easy to just click on from either the What's New page or the Mike Morgan page.. You have to see this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-tkm-fC0_8 We miss that smile too Mike... Thanks Karyss; Funny stuff!  
Lew Gordon   1978  
Awesome website and the pictures really brought back a lot of memories as when I moved from one house to another, I lost all my albums from Lowell, Rogers and Wilson. Do you think the new owners could have contacted me to say "Hey, you forgot some important items!"
 
Lisa Deutch   1978  
Just wanted to know if the "Got Woody" clothing line will be available for purchase at Beachcomber, golf, Tacos, etc. If so? PLZ let us know. If not? I need to get off my butt and order online :0) See everyone soon! Lisa
 
Clay Anderson   1978  
Lisa,
Great question.... Here is the deal with clothing... all the proceeds from the clothing help to offset the overall costs of the events... We will need to pay up front for all events by the 5th of August.. We feel confident that we will in the end break even for all costs, however anything that anyone buys early, just goes to help, so we will need to put up less of our own money in advance..  We have the following still available..  Payne Stewart type caps, "Got Woody" girls tanks, "Woody" visors, "No 50" visors, and special Mike Morgan Memorial.. hang ten embroidered feet (on front) and "Remembered" Shadow Surfer (on back) T-shirts....  We expect to have plenty left for sale at Golf, Beach, and Beachcomber...  Also by the time the events come around we expect to have ball caps with "No 50" and Shadow surfer... as well as a few... "Old Bruins never die.... Cuz they always have a Woody" in a silk aloha shirt style...  Embroidered 49 and holding golf shirts in both men's and women's style are complimentary for every golfer... we may have some left over for purchase as well...
 
Duane McDade   1978-79   Lew I have a larriot? that you could copy?  
Kelli Kennedy Tanksley   1978 (Cypress), Hill 1975   Man o man the memories here....wish I could be there. I was a sophmore yell leader in 1976, but then we moved to Cypress where I graduated. The ceremony was at angel stadium and as soon as it was over I sped down Katella to get to Wilson's ceremony where I sat in the stands and cried. I almost got hit by a train coming down katella.....anyway, good times. Hey, anybody know what happened to Nancy Townsend and Pixie (Rita) Beckham? I would love to connect with them again, and so many of you. How can we be nearly 50 already? What a long, strange trip indeed, for me anyway....email me at kelkelcan@yahoo.com or catch me on facebook. Would love to reconnect.  
Daniel Green   1978  
What a blast! I reluctantly agreed to play golf but what a fun tournament! I had a great time at this whole 49 and holding weekend. If you've been reading about these events and didn't show...? YOU REEEEAAALLY missed it. If you did come to any of these partys, I hope you had a great time like I did. I want to shout out a speacial thank you to Clay for pushing this idea and for Mike Benavidez and his whole family for all of their hard work! If you were one of the people that were not able to find us at Bolsa Chica, I'm sorry if you did not notice the map on the Beach Location Info page. I hope that you still enjoyed a great day at the beach. Tom Rowe did an awesome job putting together the Beach party, thanks bro! What are we going to call next summer's party?
 
Debbie King   1977  
You guys did an awesome job. Thanks to all who had a hand in the planning and execution of the activities. It was a great couple of days. You guys rock.
 
Dawn Elaine Campbell   1978  
I was wondering if the photos from 49&holding are going to be posted here or on the official website. I have already saw some on facebook. Looks like everyone had a great time :)   

 
Duane McDade   78, 79

Clay Anderson   78  
Hey gang.... I know there is a ton of photos out there that I haven't seen as of yet...(Debbie Cook?, Golightly?, Missy?...).   Please take a moment to send them to me at andersonclay@hotmail.com... 
 
Virginia Carey Barmeyer   1979  
Thanks for your time and effort coordinating the 49 and Holding events and including us younger kids!
 
Ted Witten   1977  
I echo Clay's sentiments about the band and would like to thank them for allowing me to growl along to a song with them. Now, if you need a band that isn't local to SoCal try www.chaser.uk.com :-)
 
Simone La Pay   78  
okay, the Cali girls thing is a crack-up! Too bad I missed this summer. Hope everyone is well
 
Ted Witten   1977  
...and in many cases uncannily accurate!
 
Clay   1978  
Roy Golightly just sent me some more photos... So there are now quite a few new ones on the Beach day page and a third set on the Beachcomber night page...  Still need some help with a few captions...
 
Ted Witten   1977  
Homecoming!! Wish I could but I'll be in Dublin sinking some Guinness and thinking of ya'll!
 
Clay   1978  
Wilson plays Poly for homecoming Friday October 30th at 7:00PM.... Should be a good game, Wilson is currently ranked #1 in Moore League... Wilson beat Millikan and Millikan already beat Poly... Check out the "What's New" page for details on where to meet the gang...
 
Clay Anderson   1978  
Tragedy stuck at Wilson on friday night after the football game... It is almost unbelievable to many... A 16 year old girl was shot and killed by shots that were fired into a crowd of students after the game...  Two young men 18, and 20 (non-students) were also injured by gunfire, but their injuries were not life threatening...  However a pole vaulter on the track team and honor student from Wilson High School, Melody Ross was killed....
 
Clay Anderson   1978  
On a happier note..... Check out the new video from our classmate Duane McDade.  "Tell me something about love by THE WATERING FISH PROJECT...
 
Dawn   78  
I was in shock when I heard. I was also worried because I knew alot of my classmates were at the game. Prayers to her family.
 
Clay    
See "What's New" page for an update on the arrest of two suspects for the shooting of Melody Ross...
 
Clay   1978  
For those that might be interested... The funeral for Melody Ross will be Saturday November 14th in Whittier... see link http://www.presstelegram.com/news/ci_13721858

Just a head's up to those that might not have heard...
Another open Wilson High School Alumni event is planned for Joe Josts @ 7:00PM this Saturday evening 11/21/09..
Sorry I can't make it... I hope a good time is had by all...
 
Clay   1978  
I hoping someone out there might have an answer on this one.. There is a classmate that contacted me from Class of 1969... She is quite ill and for some reason has a very strong desire to make contact with either Ms LaRue or Mr. Mertz from Wilson... I know that if either of them are still alive, they must be quite elderly... Let me know if any of you have any information on either of them.
 
Thanks,
Clay

Couldn't make it to the golf day because of work, but went to the beach and the beachcomber and had a great time. I think the reunion committe did a fabulous job planning and arranging it. Thanks for all your dedication and hard work. Doing something this year as we did last year would be great. Thanks!
