After graduating from NC State College, I taught math at Harding the first five years ('62-'67) of my 47 year career which is not over yet. I have a contract to teach next year, my 36th year, at Charlotte Country Day School. I Have many fond memories of all those I taught or worked with including all my classes, The Imperatores, The National Honor Society, and the Math and Chess Clubs at Harding during the mid-sixties and would like to touch base with any of you who might feel inspired to do so to find out how life has been for you since those golden days. Best Wishes, Tim Timson

had a strange but wonderful dream/memory in a warm hazy part of my day...about Peggy Dolan, one of our classmates for only a short time i believe in 64. such a beautiful creature from Texas whose life was cut short by vermin we should have set fire to. she was my friend, and i hope to many more...search your "hard drives", and raise all glasses to toast her honor and her memory Charlie!

"Here's to you, Peggy..ALWAYS!" Charlie!

Can it be?  Only 9 weeks to the reunion.  I am so excited about seeing everyone again, you would think it was my first time, instead of my sixth.  As I run into people around town and ask...are you going to the reunion?  You see the head start shaking and the big smile come on their faces.  Folks, that's what it is all about. If you have been telling yourself you need to go, but you haven't rsvp'd...do it now.  You won't regret it.  There are too many people there who will make sure you feel welcome and have a good time.  Got my shagging shoes ready....O. D. here we come. 

Just checking for any 1960 graduates from Harding.

just visiting the web site. moving back to NC. looking for  class of '66 grads to communicate with. will be living in northern Iredell county. love the music!!!!!!!!

I have not been to one of these reunions yet. I have heard so much about it and I can't wait to see everybody. Looks like soooo much fun!! See ya real soon!

Well Westsiders, it's almost here, the biggest, badest, animal party of the year, staring wild people from the west side ofCharlotte who know how to really have fun and raise a little hell while doing it!!!As the owner of Duck's, this is my favorite party because I not only get to see old friends from my days at Wilson Jr. High, but a lot of the people that I grew up with and are still friends with after so many years.  And,I have the great pleasure of meeting so many new friends.If you haven't made up your minds yet to come and renew old high school friendships,and have a wonderful time being "young" again, then make the decision now and sign up and come party with all of your other classmates to have the time of your life.  No excuses accepted, just come on down and be ready to party with the "best of the best".......Westsiders, it don't get no better then this!!!  THE NUMBER 1 HIGH SCHOOL REUNION IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!!!!!Love ya all, see you next Thursday!!!David 

David, thank's so much for our invite, My lovely bride and I, were the people that went back to Beantown the day you and your other  half, had the motorcycle mishap on that Sunday. Love ya much , see ya soon.-- WW

 1966 graduate of Harding. Never been to a  class reunion.  Know it would be lots of fun seeing all of you. Live in Indian Trail, NC.  My husband  of 42 years ( from NY) thought the shag was a style of carpet back in the  60's  ha! ha!. I don't think I would be able to sit still for one minute. Hope you all have a blast.    Dot Dean Dandrow

How is everyone out there???? I am still in Mooresville at the big pond.  Any new gossip?Shirl704-663-7621

I don't qualify as a Harding or West Meck graduate but I did spend a few years a Wilson Jr High as well as Berryhill Elementary.  I lived on the West Side out near the airport and made a few lifelong friends during a very impressionable time of my life.  I think it is absolutely amazing what Harding and West have been able to do keeping the "Old Days" alive as well as continuing friendships for so many years. If my memory serves me correct  there must have been a time that school boundry lines was changed .  I  came back a dated a girl in 1968 that was going to Harding but I do know at one time she would have gone to  West from the same location she lived at. Of course we would come from cherryville duing my high school days and go to many of the same places - BBQ King,  Town and Country, The Cellar,  Park Center and even The Purple Penguin.  I would have graduated with many of you guys in 1969 had my mom stuck around  instead of moving a little west ...I really love the music of that era and some of you know about "The Friday Night Revival" on WSGE. For some of you graduates that moved away you can still listen onlline live from 6pm until 10pm every friday night by going to www.wsge.org  and clicking on listen live.   We play a whole lot of the great tunes from the sixties which I refer to as the West side music.. In may I will be doing an all sixties night along with DJ Ed Timberlake at Lynns Dance Club and would love to have this group come on out and party like we used too.  I thnk it is May 23rd.  Again,  this is great what all of you have been able to sustain.  Keep it up,  it makes me proud to have just lived on the west side for a few years during that wonderful time.  Big Ways  Treasure Hunt ..   .. Big Ways Birthday Parties .. hmmm ... the memories just go on and on ...

Where do we stay for the reunion?

Hope to see some of my fellow classmates of Harding \'67 this year. 

Looking forward to another great time at the re-union.
