Senior Superlatives Now Online
The Senior Superlatives of the CHS Class of 1983 are now online. It is the hope that we can update the pictures with a sort of "then and now" tribute page after the 25 Year Class Reunion takes place. If any of you have any suggestions for other additions to the website, e-mail me.
A Reunion Tribute - In Memory of Classmates
Late last night (Saturday), I decided to put up a page honoring our deceased classmates, While we are aware of only two, several of our other classes at CHS have lost more than we have. We hope you will visit the page that honors our two deceased classmates, read the lyrics from John Lennon and Paul McCartney and think about these two wonderful individuals and the good times we enjoyed.
Putting it another way, it's been 25 years since we graduated. We all had differences, we all felt different about each other and certain things. On September 19 and 20th, lets all come together and be thankful for one another, erase those old bonds and chains, and be thankful we have this opportunity to come together, relive the past, renew friendships and rekindle old ones eroded by the past. I am sure our classmates that have gone on would want the same thing. The page can viewed here.

Reunion Flashback: 1983 Graduation Program
How many graduates of the Class of 1983 still have their graduation program? Well here is the scanned graduation program from June 3, 1983. Dr. Joe Smiddy, Chancellor of then Clinch Valley College, was the speaker. I found the program recently while going through some of my late mother's things. Hope you enjoy as much as I did. Some things to make note of: Randy Pruitt was Band Director / Choral Director and the late Holly Coe (Class of 1984) was pianist.
You can click here for the program.

The reunion committee invite you to be apart of this wonderful celebration.

Please bring your family, a covered dish, drinks and enjoy a cookout and time of fellowship before the Clintwood Homecoming Football Game.
