On September 8, 2003, the first annual get together of HHS '58 Grads in Florida was held at the Mucky Duck on Captiva Island. In attendance were The Armstrongs, Jones', Keplers, and Lewis'. The event began on Sun 9/07/03 with Bloody Marys at Charter Club on Naples Bay, Naples; lunch at the Cove, Naples, then Sunday football at the Snook Inn, Marco Island. Monday was Dinner at the Mucky Duck, Captiva Island, and then the Eagles/Bucs Monday Nite classic at B.T. Boomers, Naples. Tuesday was lunch at Riverwalk, Naples; Wednesday was a shelling boat trip to Tigertail Beach. It was a success, and plans were made to have it be an annual affair, with an invitation extended to all classmates (there are currently 29 living in Florida) to attend. Tom Kepler, much to his chagrin, was unanimously elected the President and Secretary of the function. <vbg> |
