GIRLS LUNCHEON: Contact
Gale Senseman-Privette at Gale7@Juno.com
for the notices of planned luncheons!
CONDOLENCES:
Unfortunately... too many of our classmates this month who have lost loved
ones. Notices are included
throughout this newsletter. We
also mourn the loss of Ron Work (1970), who devoted a lot of time to
assisting the Class of 1970 with its activities, and with the MSO.
He is survived by his mom, Joan, and sister Karen Work Seleznow
(1974). A dance will be held
in Ron’s honor - TBA (if before the next newsletter, please watch the
website for the details).
CHECK
IT OUT:
AspenHillNet.Net, from Jim Hardman (1976), thardman@earthops.org....
“I am nearing completion on a non-profit/ informational site
AspenHillNet.Net. If there
are Peary alumni who are still in the general area, I can give them free
links to their businesses in the Aspen Hill area.”
PEARY
RUNNING CLUB:
Runners... interested in an informal alumni-running group?
See John Golsen’s (1982) proposal in this newsletter!
VEGAS:
Hope to meet-up with John Philbin (1975) here during De La Hoya vs. Vargas
(PPV-9/14-Mandalay Bay) and any other alums who will be here for the match
- tickets still available (only the $900 and $1200 seats remain - go
figure). John is currently
training with Vargas in Big Bear, CA.
You other alums who are tentatively scheduled for a visit out here
in September and October - keep me posted (i.e. please give a
heads-up/reminder - old age, can’t keep track)!
THANK
YOU:

project, and to those who have taken advantage of the secure online form

MSO
ANNIVERSARY:
This issue of the newsletter marks the 6-Year point for the MSO.
It’s only made it this far due to your voluntary donations.
Approximately 14% of all alums listed on MSO have generously
assisted at some point. Let’s
make it another year! As of
this writing, there are 3,864 alums and staff signed-on to MSO, with more
than 129,000 visits to the site. ~10,200
students passed-through the hallways of Robert E.
Peary High School from 1960-1984.
“Hi-de-hey
Hi-de-ho, Ibbly-wibbly Wobbly-wo....” (thanks, Liz)!
