Clay Anderson   1978   This should work much better.. Just type in something and you are done. Thanks, Clay  
Leslie Benavidez   1981   Come on Girls...I'm playing golf this time, let's not let the guys have all the fun... Come out and join me, girls!  
Debbie Cook   1978   The website is really coming along. I am looking forward to seeing everyone again in August.  
Tracy Heynen   1978   I had such a blast at the 30th reunion events that I can't wait for the 49 & Holding Party!! I can be reached via email at Wishin4dabeach@aol.com  
Charlie Smith   1978   Great site! I hope to participate in some of the scheduled activities next summer.  
Martha (Mallon) Smith   1978   Hi Everyone! Thanks again for the great time at the reunion. I just registered for the golf tourney(that's goning to be a laugh!) and I'm sending my check today. Let's all do our part and get the money in so that Mike, Leslie & Clay's hard work won't be in vain. Can't wait to hear from you guys.  
Letty Ojeda   1977   Reunion crashers unite! It was great to see everyone looking so well, and to know that most of us want to do it again next summer. See you there!  
LYNN AUSTIN   78   GREAT WEBSITE!! WAY TO KEEP IT ROLLING. THE 40 AND HOLDING EVENTS WILL BE A BLAST. LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.  
Debby LIght   1978   Ok. You boys are out of control!!But, what else is new!!! Wait until we find "pics" of you guys!!  
Mark Fraser   1978   Looks like I missed a great time at reunion. Will not be missing it all again. Look forward to seeing those who remember me again.Looking forward to golf too. Please do me a favor? My last name is spelled F R A S E R LOL. See ya next summer!!  
Clay   1978   I would appreciate it if everyone would start signing up for golf...You don't need to pay just register on line. I just committed to Lil Rec on 72 players..I want to see a bit more response...I still would like a minimum of 18 girls. 108 with 27 girls would be better.  
Bob Lindgren   1978   Had an awesome time at the 30th, bummed I missed the mixer Friday night - a bunch of people went to that and not the Queen Mary... I won't miss Kona this time!  
Dawn   78   Hi Mike Thanks How have you been? You probably do not remember as Dawn but as Elaine. I will go on classmates and tell her. Thanks :)  
Mark Fraser   1978   Hey Clay and everyone just a little warning about those downloads...if you dont know who it is doing it. They could be throw in a virus or some hightech spyware in there. They have keylogger trojans which can really leave you open for theft and such. A little paranoid yes I am but I seen what those things can do... Thanks for removing it from feed.  
Clay   78   Hello everyone, comments please about the music..does it load right up for most or does it take several minutes to start???  
Monica Rojas   1978   Clay, great job getting the "49 and Holding" website. I hope to teach everyone how to play Beach Tennis. Looking forward to seeing everyone again!  
Dawn/Elaine Campbell   78   I am glad to see names attached to the pictures. I still do not recognize anyone, LOL. Cant wait to see more pictures and comments about all of the reunion activities.  
Dawn/Elaine Campbell   78   I was wondering how we can find out about the teachers from our class. Like Mr. K, & does anyone know if Mr. Andrews is the same Mr. Andrews that has been in the news lately? Thanks :)  
Dawn Horton   1977   How fun. I stumbled onto this page from the Classmates site and what a blast from the past looking at all the pictures. I almost (ALMOST) feel 18 again! Monica Rojas, I can't believe it, I've thought about you so many times over the years and all our adventures at Windes and McClaughry.  
Clay   1978   Hello Dawn, and welcome. Please plan to attend our events in August 09. Please tell others from your class as well. Drop us a line so that we have your e-mail address so we can keep you updated on our events. You can contact Monica by sending an e-mail to the class of 78 reunion committee: wilsonhs78@hotmail.com  
Debbie Simek   1978   Great Site Clay. Not much into golf, but Bob and I are looking forward to Vball and the rest!  
Charlie Smith   1978   Based on the above posts, I now know who to contact if I want to go back to school in the areas of medicine or massage!  
Clay   1978   Charlie, Whoever or whatever is causing this crap is really pissing me off.. I will delete it soon...for now M.S. office is investigating it so I will leave it a bit. They are into the golf sign up page as well..  
Clay   1978  
O.K. I think I got the spam fixed.  Feel free to leave messages again.  There will be a slight delay before they post, but this will insure I don't have to keep removing the junk.
 
Charlie Smith   1978  
Thanks for your diligence, Clay.  Dawn/Elaine, the Dee Andrews who was a health teacher/track coach when we attended WWHS and the Dee Andrews who is now a LB City Councilman are one and the same.
 
Beno   78  
Anyone who lives in the L.B. area, e-mail me to be in the contact loop for fun events
 
Dawn/Elaine   78  
Thank you Charlie. I hope that the Wilson site has the pics soon. 
 
Clay   78  
I hope everyone is enjoying the photos....If we don't have a picture of you on our site...send us one...  I am looking for picnic photos to post as well as old stuff from Jr. High and Elementary... 
 
BTW I heard from a few folks from St. Anthony's...Please know that you are all welcome to join us.  Sign up for golf and drop us a note to tell us you'll be joining us at Kona and we will add you to our roll call page.
 
Eden Escobar   1978  
Mark, what did you say about the Trojans? Uh...fight on...Michael:)
 
Clay   78  
Hi all,
I wanted to share some numbers about this site with you, tell you about a fun event, and ask for a little help:
 
As of the end of October, the site has been visited by:  853 different computers, the site has had 2455 individual visits, and 10,690 individual page views....Wow...unbelieveable thanks to all for stopping in...
 
I will be in Southern California the weekend of Dec 13-14 and again the following weekend Dec 20-21, Mike and I want to put together a group to go to Kona one evening during this time frame to check the place out and make sure this is a good venue...if you are interested in joining us, please send either myself or Beno an e-mail. 
 
Finally, I hate to do this...but we have a $500.00 deposit due on December 1st, we are committed to do this now and we will make sure it gets paid...but how about a little help, we know Christmas is just around the corner, but how about sending in a check for $30.00 at least to cover your Kona Night upfront? 
 
Thanks,
Clay
 
Leslie Crowell   1978  
Nice job with the site, Clay. I really enjoyed all the pics of everyone. Guess it's about time for me to atttend a reunion... Looking forward to seeing everyone next summer. PS- Everyone looks great!
 
Peter Rundle   1978  
Great to see the pictures of everyone. Can't believe 30 years have passed.
 
TJ "Tom" McCormick   1978  
Love hearing from y'all. Charlie Smith, ya nutz! For Mike Kinkella, a big bell-ringer hey. Let's hear it for all the St. Bartholmew's altar boys out there!
 
A California Girl   1978  
O.K. who decided on these pin up girls??
 
What about you guys? I think we should go with a Cartoon theme. What do you think girls?
 
Beno:  Magilla Gorilla???
Clay Anderson:  Charlie Brown???
Tony Motshagen:  Johnny Bravo ???          
Cary Hardwick:  Fred (from Scooby Do)???
Michael Kruse:  Goofy???
Jon San Jose:  Mickey Mouse???
 
Dawn Campbell   "78"  
California Girl, nah I do not think that we should make our guys cartoon characters. They are already too "cute" LOL
 
Clay   1978  
O.K. California girl..(without a name....hmmmm),
too late Dawn...I started a page for you... I had to laugh when I started to build it...very funny...but kinda true.
 
Thank you Missy for sending in more golf photos... check out the golf slides page to see quite a few more photos.
 
Terry Fifer   1977  
Glad the class of 78' has put this event together...!Thx for thinking of all of us 49 and holding folks, should be a great time...!
 
Lisa McLean   1978  
Anybody from the class of 1976 ever hear from Lee Webster? 
 
Ted Witten   1977  
Anybody bringing their kids to the BBQ? My boys might play golf if there are some people their own age. Coming from a different country they're a bit shy!
 
Debby Light   1978  
Clay, It wasn't me but what a great idea. I had talked to some others about doing something like this but never took the time. Thank you, California Girl!! YOU ROCK!!
 
Lisa McLean   1978  
Ted..How old are your kids? 
 
Ted Witten   1977  
My 3 boys are (will be next summer) 20, 18, and 16. Only the oldest has played any golf and not recently. 3 hours to get round 9 holes might not be enough!
 
Janet Darrow-Winter   1978  
It sounds like a great time. We are moving to Dubai in January, so will use the warmer weather to see if I am still able to play bad golf. The check is in mail (or at least in the envelope) for Kona night.
 
Clay   1978  
You're a star Janet!!!
Bad golf is no excuse....We will be expecting you at Lil Rec as well....
 
Thanks loads for paying early!!!
 
Fides de Jesus   1978  
The girl's revenge page is so funny---I can't say I agree with all of them however. Sent a check to Leslie on Friday...see you in December. Aloha
 
Clay   1978  
Thanks again to everyone sending in checks!!
We will post you as paid on the roll call page as soon as they come in...If you sent in a check and it doesn't show fairly promptly...send us a note...we want to keep the roll call list up to date.  
 
Oscar Ojeda   1978  
Hey Clay is this the way you guys really remember me? It can't be all that bad then can it?
 
Clay   1978  
Oscar, your beard rocked in high school.....probably a little easier to buy beer in high school with a full beard.  I saw Letty a month or so ago....Hope to see you in December or August...
 
Clay   1978  
Some of you have asked..."What happened to the music?"..
I am not sure...some computers it starts right up others...???
Try this... close the page and log back in.  Stay on the first page for quite some time (maybe even 5 minutes...) until the music finally starts...it seems to take a long time to load but once it is initially loaded it works.  Then when you open the other pages the music starts pretty rapidly...(15 seconds or so) The photo pages are a lot better with the music.  Also if you have webX blocker on your computer you will see a light colored bar across the top of your computer screen click on the bar and allow the webX to run.
 
Ted Witten   1977  
Oscar, be proud dude. It's better than mine! Saying that, the pint in hand's not too far away from reality!
 
Cynthia Prlich   1978  
Hi guys! 49 and holding is a great idea, since I will be celebrating my birthday at this one, 3 days after the big 49. WOW 49! I think it is wonderful getting everyone together for something more casual. Spaghettini's was great. Much more low keyed and a better chance to catch up. Look forward to seeing our other classmates from previous years. Count me in!! Cynthia Prlich
 
Dawn   "78"  
Just wanted to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving. :)
 
Jon San Jose   1978  
Thanks, Clay and Beno! You guys rock! Your spirit reminds us all how great it was at Wilson. My boy should be a Bruin in September!
 
Wilson Enrollment Committee for:   2013  
You reading the comment above Lisa????
Tell Kevin that Long Beach doesn't need another Ram or a Griffin...for that matter.
 
Tamara (Tami) Gabel   1978  
Leslie Crowell, really nice to read a post from you. Wilson is recent history compared to the neighborhood games of tag with the Griffiths, Crowells, Gabels, Russells, Blacks and . . . I look forward to seeing you at 49 and Holding. 
 
Tracy Hahn   1978  
Hey, I have so much fun with all of you. Please let me know what's happening bcz I'll want to come! wishin4dabeach@aol.com
 
terry Fifer   1977  
Would like to hear from all former Bruins....plz send me an email to catch up: terry_fifer@yahoo.com Hope to hear from some of ya'll before this event happens....! 
 
Tracy Heynen   1978  
I had so much fun at the boat parade party at Graley's house! Can't wait to see you all again this Saturday at Kona's. I'll be there late due to family commitments.
 
Sue Lafferty   1978  
So sad to hear about Jon Danner.
 
Richard Wade   1978  
Kona, lets hope they're ready for us Saturday Night ! It will be a great time to share some thoughts on our year, the highs and the lows and hang out with some good friends. Great job on the website Clay, it's rocking... Go Bruins !
 
Tracy Heynen Hahn   1978  
Saturday night at Kona's was fun, and as always, great to see everyone- just wish I would have gotten there earlier to see more classmates!
 
Dawn Campbell   1978  
Jon Danner's Funeral Service; Saturday, Dec 27th at 2:00pm Forest Lawn, Cypress. Go to classmates for more information 
 
Clay Anderson   1978  
I wanted to say thank you to all of you that made it a point to join us on the 20th at Kona for a sort of "trial run"....  We had 42 show up for dinner and to get a feel for the place...great turn out!!  I personally really enjoyed myself, and a special thanks for Fides, for the beautiful hula that she shared with all of us..
 
Beno   1978  
Thank you all, for the fun and friendship at Kona's trial run.  It's been an honor being part of the 49 and holding crew.  I hope we can reach out and share the joy with other classmates.  Happy Holidays...Beno
 
Tracy Heynen   1978  
Girls! I would love to do that girls' day/night that some of us talked about--Monica? What about a January or February date? Fides, I was so bummed to have missed your beautiful self dancing! I saw Teresa Boyd the day after Kona's. She was our classmate too, but graduated early, in 11th grade. She said that she'd be up for the next event!
 
Ken Santucci   1977  
I'm very sorry to hear about Jon Danners passing. I wish I had found this comments page a week sooner so that I could have attended the memorial service. Anyone interested in chatting can ping me at: ksan2c@mac.com Aloha, Ken
 
Tracy Heynen   1978  
Lisa, you asked about Lee Webster-- email me at wishin4dabeach@aol.com and I can update you a bit. He's my brother's best friend.
