They turned 70, and still looking Good!

16 ladies from the LEHS class of 1965 had a lovely lunch at the 1606 Restaurant inside the Beauport Hotel on Friday 6/15/18.  These ladies all turned 70 in either 2017 or 2018 and it was time to celebrate.  A good time was had by all!
The inscription on the cake decorated in red and gray with balloons and confetti read “Happy 70s Bulldogs.” Thank you to Sue and Helen G. who donated the fun cake.

Request for information

Bob Maleszyk sent the following request which he received from the LEHS guidance department.
I have been in contact with Matt Wilkins and have verified that this is not a scam.  It is to create a new Alumni directory book.  Matt asks that we post this on our class website.  This info is requested soon (7 days from yesterday).
Oh…. the cost of the book will probably be in excess of $300!  It will be useful to Alumni associations but not very useful to individuals (especially because of the cost).  This company is also sending out post cards and making calls to verify information.
I have already let people know via Facebook.
Bob
