Greetings! My name is Kate (was Katie back in the day) Brown Brown, and I'm SHS '67. A few of us -- Marty Gambichler, Bill Bongiorno, Tom Bergen, Barbara Staufenberg Wardwell, and I are trying to put together a 50th Reunion party for June 2017. We're still in the organizing stage, but there is a Facebook page you can consult to keep up on where we are with things -- www.facebook.com/Seaford-Class-of-1967-156423598159196/
My job, at the moment, is finding classmates. With all the social media outlets, though it's probably easier than it was a few years ago, it still isn't all that e-a-s-y, especially when it comes to finding the female members of our class.
Note to Classmates.com and other alum sites -- PLEASE, include fields in your registration form for maiden AND married names -- and maybe even other names since I've found that classmates have also hyphenated and/or otherwise changed their last names over the years! If you want to be really helpful, maybe just make three last name fields: "last name you went by then," "last names you've gone by since then," and "last name you go by now."
If you're reading this and know the names, whereabouts, status, or anything else about any of our classmates from the Class of 1967 -- maybe you're the classmate, maybe you were friends with someone from '67 in high school or college, maybe you're the friend of a brother or sister of someone who graduated in 1967, maybe you're somebody's second cousin on your mother's side, maybe you're even a '67 grad's neighbor! -- would you please leave us a message on this thread with what information you have? We sure would appreciate the help and we'll take the search from there (unless, of course, you're in touch with the person, in which case tell them to get in touch with us via Facebook)!
I'll check this thread regularly and hope this page gets active soon.
