Bonnie Hawkins (Feazel)

I am so glad that some others would like to do a Florida reunion. I will start looking for venues and prices. It will be nice to have a historic place with sites to visit. Everyone is invited, not just those living in Florida.

I’d love to help.... I live on Fl west coast in Bonita Springs.  Debbie

I’m hoping some of the group and candid pictures taken at the reunion can find there way to this website. It would be a welcomed pictorial for both those who attended and those who were unable to make it. Classmates please continue to pursue the classmates we have been unable to find on the web site. Looking forward to crossing paths with everyone again soon. Stay healthy everyone.

You are so right Ingrid. I was unable to make it as the storm was to hit close to where I live.  My wife was not coming with me so she would have been alone.  Any way I would love to see photos. It would bee nice to at least see every body even if I could not talk with some or all.  Also let me ask any and all of you if you have any leads as to where Lillian Porti might be.   I lost track of her sometime in 69 while in the Navy.   I would love to try to touch base again.  So any help would be great.  Ken

I was not able to travel back to the states this year, but it sure would have been fun to meet you all. The future Florida option sounds interesting, as I have family in the Boca Raton area that I visit. So that's a definite maybe. Keep me in the loop.

Sending a big 'thank you' to the planning committee of our 50th Reunion.  Although this message is weeks late, it is no less heartfelt.  I find myself thinking about all the work and every thoughtful detail that helped make our evening so special.  As many have said, it was a wonderful time to reconnect with old friends and, yes, make new ones with classmates that you'd see in the hallways but didn't really 'know' until that weekend.  I'm looking forward to keeping the connections alive and well.  Karen

Had posted a request for input for a Florida reunion over a week ago but have not seen an approval for it yet. Anyone interested in helping or sharing ideas, please contact me here or on facebook. I'm thinking March or April 2020.

Hi Bonnie, It sounds like a great idea, as long as Randy & I don't have to do any dancing! Go for it!

I’d like to volunteer to help Bonnie organize a NHS Florida reunion. After communicating with Bonnie, we are considering Orlando since it is in central FL plus it has tons of hotels and venues available.  Doing something in March 2019 might work, as long as it’s not Spring Break week, as that would be an expensive time down here. I understand we have some classmates familiar with that area, who can provide a good starting point. I’m about 3 1/2 hours from Orlando, but that wouldn’t stop me from coming.  Come on Floridians... let’s hear from you!

I live in Melbourne Florida, so you can count me in to help with a Florida reunion.

It was great seeing everyone and reconnecting at the 50th. And I love, love the idea of doing a south reunion in Florida!!  To continue the fun and get out of the northeast in March--one could ask for nothing more.  I am happy to help from a distance.

Bonnie Hawkins (Feazel)

Thanks to everyone offering to help with the Florida reunion. Looking for march 2020. That way we will have ample time to plan. Jeff Beytin has also said he can check in the venice area. Orlando sounds good because there are so many different things to do there.

Deborah Pace (Pagliaro)

Bonnie is correct...Spring of 2019 wouldn’t give us enough time to plan a great get-together. Best to focus on Spring 2020......I do think Orlando has the best airport access as well as hotels and entertainment.  If anyone is working in the hotel industry, would love to hear from you..

  I am open to any place or time (except hurricane season)  I was looking forward to being there this year so will try my best to see you all at the next one   Ken

Well I believe that today is the day we are to share and post our stories and memories to share with our classmates for our virtual class reunion! Well I have one for you all.

During my senior year in HS I only had a few classes each day and left early to go to work. I drove my green VW bug to school each day.  One day I was leaving for work and went out into the parking lot to find that my front seats were missing. It's funny becasue you look into your car and only see what you think is there until you go to sit down and there is nothing to sit on! I was dumbfounded to say the least!

I had no idea what to do. I just stood there is shock. After a few minutes I decided to solisit some help and found Bob Dunn in the commons (when wasn't Bob Dunn in the Commons! Did he ever go to class?) Thank God he was there! 

After showing him my delima, bacause he didn't really believe what I was telling him and after a good half hour of laughing,  he compsoed himself enough to start trying to solve the problem. We went back into the school and found an old milk crate which he took and used as a stool to sit on which enabled him to drive. I got in and sat in the back seat while he drove me home. He had to walk back to the school. He was my knight in shinning armor!

Thank you Bob Dunn for saving me!

(We've always wondered who stole my seats......dune buggies were the rage than so I am sure my seats graced the frame of someone's machine.)

Hi Everyone! I’m try to collaborate with Faze on our stories. Stand by...

Hello All,

While I was only at Northport for my Jr. and Sr. years I remember them well. Lots of good memories from the wrestling team with Coach DiNuova and summers at the beaches, Crab Meadow Golf Course (worked in the snack bar), and working mowing lawns around town with Brian Flaiz. Quito (Karl De Santos), Jet (James Decker), Bob Tejada, and others.

Hi everyone! Back again. Faze and I tried to write something together but there were technical issues.

Peggy your story about the car seats is really funny. I do remember Bob being a fixture in the commons. Obviously I wasn’t in class. 

Marie Reilly, Annette, Faze, and I use to sneak out of the house all the time. We perfected our technique including bribing Faze’s dog Pepper so he won’t wake everyone up.

Sometimes we’d go pooling hopping. We almost got caught when the homeowners came home. There was no way out of their backyard. Lesson learned! Scout ahead.

Other times, we would go in Marie’s grandparent’s house with Mayo jars and fill them with homemade Giatini wine. Marie lived off Pulaski Road but that didn’t bother us. We would sip wine and talk all night.

Just before school started, we would buy sidewalk chalk and write Northport Tigers everywhere. We gave up toilet papering by then. Our sleepovers, especially outdoors, were perfect ways to go everywhere. We thought it was so cool. Of course we matured senior year. Faze had the Chevy! Trips to the barn and Crabmeadow were great fun!
