Monongah High reunion in Sarasota

Not too late if you phone!

Bill Meredith, Class of 1957, and wife Roleta, a Clarksburg Washington Irving graduate, will host the 3^rd Monongah High Alumni Reunion/Sarasota in their Sarasota home at noon Friday, Feb. 6.

Call John Olesky at (330) 388-4466 or Bill at (941) 342-0030 so that Roleta will know how many to feed and so that Bill can give your name to the guard at their complex entrance to get access to their street.

Bill’s directions to his home at 3201 Charles MacDonald Drive in Sarasota: 

To get to our home from I-75, take exit 207 (Bee Ridge Rd.) and go east about 1½  miles to Gary Player Drive.  Turn left onto Gary Player Dr. and proceed to the gate.  All names will be given to the guardhouse.  Once through the gate, go to the first stop sign (Tom Morris Drive).  Turn right on Tom Morris and go to the first street on the right, which is Charles MacDonald.  Turn right and proceed about 1/4 mile to our home on the right side at 3201.  The number is on the mailbox.

March 1 will be the West Virginia Day Picnic in The Villages, Florida. At least four Monongah High alumni said they will be there.

Admission will be limited to the first 500 tickets purchased. The Villages is northwest of Orlando and northeast of Tampa and 30 to 40 minutes from each city.

Send your check for $18 per person to Karen Rodriguez, a 1960 Fairmont East grad married to a Fairmont West grad. Make the check out to: West Virginia Day Picnic.

Mail it to:

Karen Rodriquez

2755 Privada Drive

The Villages, FL 32162

On a separate piece of paper, put your name, the West Virginia town and county that you came from (they will seat people by counties so the Marion County people will be seated together), your email address, your phone number.

The doors will open at 11 a.m., the catered meal will begin at 12:30 p.m.

See you there! Either Sarasota or The Villages.

Or, better yet, both!
