[last updated September 27, 1998] - The East High School Class of 1958 has concluded a successful 40-year reunion. The turnout was as expected, about forty percent of the living class members. The two night reunion ended with dinner and entertainment at the Raquet Club of Memphis. As the location was Friday night, the ballroom at the club was decorated with memorabilia from the days at East. An ice sculpture of a mustang highlighted the buffet table. It appeared to an observer that the reunion was another successful event, but that was to be expected from the classy class of 1958.
[the following was posted September 25, 1998, 11pm] - An
estimated more than 50 people kicked off the East High Class of 1958
40-year reunion tonight. The Corky's barbeque and drinks evening at
Piano Memphis brought together friends from an East class described as
"very close" during their high school years. Entertainment included a
pianist providing soft background music and none other than Dewey
Phillips presenting his Red Hot, and Blue show on WHBQ radio, via tape,
of course.
As the last known major reunion of the year, the Class of '58 seems to
be providing a fun filled end to the reunion season. Festivities
continue Saturday night at the Raquet Club.
The East High Class of 1958's 40-Year Reunion is underway in Memphis tonight. As of today, expectations were that about 50 alumni from the class would be attending one or more of the events. That would be a 40% turnout of the graduating class (nine class members are known to be deceased). With spouses and guests, total attendance at the two day event is expected to be about 80 people.
