WELCH HIGH SCHOOL
ALUMNI COOKOUT -- 2007
On
Please share the news about this picnic with your fellow classmates and friends. Feel free to bring your parents, your kids, grandkids, great grandbabies, etc. Ronnie has a HUGE yard, a pool, and a lovely fishing pond down in the holler behind his house. Plenty of room and lots of things for everybody to do.
Burgers and dogs will be provided. Any side dishes (tater salad, cole slaw, baked beans, deviled eggs, desserts, etc.) you want to bring will be greatly appreciated. (However, if it's a REAL special side dish, don't expect to see it on the picnic table. Ronnie has been known to hide those to enjoy for himself AFTER the picnics. Betty Chaos Rice can attest to that!)
Remember this picnic is for all-WHS alumni and FRIENDS. I'll post this same info on the other McDowell County high school alumni web sites but it's really up to YOU to make sure your fellow classmates and friends know about it.
If you have any questions about this outing, please email Donnie Collins Skuja (dskuja@yahoo.com) or call Ronnie at 304-436-4900. In fact, if you plan to attend, it would help if you contacted me or Ronnie so we can get an idea of how much pop to buy!
Looking forward to seeing you all at the
picnic!
Below are some pictures taken at the last
All-WHS Alumni and Friends Picnic Ronnie hosted.
The weather was good
to us this year as you can tell from the bright light reflected on the
"sunny" faces of Karol Radochio (class of '65) and Diane Decker
Salsbery (class of '67).
Tammy Collins Scott (class of '78) and Norma Jacovitch McKinney (class of '65) seeking a bit of shade on Ronnie's front porch.
Sometime
between last summer and the day of this picnic, Ronnie had this
wonderful cover installed on his driveway. It's big enough to
provide shelter from the sun OR the rain for a large group of people.
Joining us at the picnic this year were Jewell, Judy and Beverly Mitchem, close childhood friends of Ronnie, Connie, and Donnie Collins. Jewell and Judy now live in Michigan; Beverly lives in Roanoke, Virginia. Jewell and Judy attended Welch Grade School in the mid-50s with the WHS classes of 1960 and 1963.
