From The Vice President

Dear Ackerman School Classmates and Friends,

The time for the 2006 Ackerman School Reunion is fast approaching. It is time to mark the calendar and start making plans to be present for a lot of fun and fellowship. The date is Saturday, April 29, 2006 and will again be in the Ty Cobb Complex. Registration will begin at 12:00 Noon and the program will begin at 2:00 P.M.

Outstanding Program Planned For This Year

The reunion committee has been working hard and we are excited about the planned program and activities that you are sure to enjoy. Registration will be conducted by the class with which you were associated. Teachers and/or coaches will register separate from specific classes. There will be signs designating the table for specific class registration. When you register, please provide us with the most current information regarding addresses, phone number, and e-mail address, in order that we may better communicate with you about upcoming reunion plans. There will be no charge but we ask you to consider a generous contribution for our ongoing operational expenses.

This year we are going to again involve some of the very talented students currently in the outstanding Ackerman school band and choral programs. We will hear reports about the Ackerman school system from the leadership and we will be updated on the town of Ackerman from Mayor Bruce Burney.

It’s not too late to bring your class together for a reunion during the April 29 weekend. First, it takes someone to make a few contacts with former classmates to discuss the idea. Please contact me at (662)397-5634 or buddy@BuddySmith.com if you decide to bring your class together during the April 29 weekend (or anytime this year) and we will do all we can to help you promote your event.

Plan Now To Attend The 2006 Ackerman School Reunion

The Ackerman School Reunion on Saturday, April 29, 2006, will not be complete without you! I hope you will get in touch with the people you know that are or have been associated with the Ackerman School and encourage them to be there.

Our attendance the past years: 129 in 98, 185 in 99, 244 in 00, 235 in 01, 208 in 02, 202 in 03, 257 in 04, and 180 in 05. Last year the AHS class of 1953 was recognized for highest attendance with 16 members present. We will top all attendance records for 2006 if you will attend and encourage your AHS classmates to join you.
