The big weekend begins next Friday! Please check the boxes in your attic or basement for those old photos and other momentos. I did this last week and found some of the original brass horns from the Lancers, snare drumsticks, tenor drumsticks, rudimental bass drumsticks, a folder full of sheetmusic for each brass instrument and several other drum corps items. I'll be bringing them to the reunion. I urge everyone else to take a few minutes to search for any items they may have and bring them along. Make copies of any photos you might have so John can post them on the site for those who can't make it. See you all next weekend, Bob.

Bob,
I found a can of "Aquanet" hairspray, a tube of white lipstick, my old "rat-tail" comb and a black leather jacket or two....I'll bring those too!

Jeanne...What about the fishnet stockings and the red high heels? I'll stop right there. But, don't make me come after YOU !!!!

Bob,
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!! It's funny what age does to some peoples memory...I think you have me confused with one of those girls from Livingston......Certainly no pure blooded Nicky-Newarker from the Roseville section would ever show up in RED highheels and fishnets. So there!!!!!And for your information they were black highheels and black seamed stockings!

All I could pull out of my closet is my "Newark Schools Safety Patrol" pin (circa 1958). I'll bring it, but would gladly put it up for auction, if such an auction would start a FUND for St. Rose.
I'm sure there's some hungry x-"patrole boy" out there who would gladly bid on some hard metal trophy from the past. It's smaller than a penny, but worth its weight in plutonium.

Bobby, unfortuately my attic is empty of any St. Rose MEMORALBILIA. However, I had safely tucked away my 1968 class ring. I will wear it with pride on Friday!
Linda

p.s. I have my autograph book too. Anyone else who does should bring theirs also.

I've got my autograph book and the program from our 1958 graduation Communion Breakfast. I've also got the script book from DOPE, the CYO play we did circa '60. And if I can find it, I think I've still got straw wrappers from various Roseville eateries, including Grunings and Rallos. See you all soon!
