We had 13 Classmates show up, Alan Rozwadowski,Sue Doody, Jim Hills ,Jim Hanson ,Melissa Dube, Linda Simmons, Jim Roy , Debbie Flaherty , Karen Chabot , Chrisitine Foisy , Gary Dube and Sandy Lefebvre AND Wes Boardman..
There have been a few changes, the yard sale has been moved from May 24th to April 26 people can drop off any unwanted items the week of April 21-26. Rick Bean will be building the Claremont Drive-In sign as we cannot locate the original sign. The colors are black and blue.
The trailer is all set, length can only be 35ft. This has been taken care of and will be wooden for easier building . We are all set for a driver, Calvin Jewel. Safety Railings ~~ Jim ~Gary ~ Wes will be working on this. A grass carpet will be covering the wheels, if we can, we will hide the wheels with wooden braces. Grass carpet will also be utilized on the flooring of the trailer. Wes will also be providing the speakers for the vehicle.
We can have 4 cars follow with 4x4 with ticket booth Jim Hanson is working on ticket booth.
Securing the car on the trailer, Karen Chabot's Brother is willing to let us use his yellow Volkswagon. NOTE: We also have another offer of a 72 pickup truck for a vehicle in the procession if needed
.
Kim Grady will make signs for float and possibly paint something on sheet (screen) .
Gary and Wes will work on the frame for the movie screen
We need someone to work on putting together a concession stand
Jim's car is out, apparently too big...
Sandy has a swing set to get rid of, we can use it on the float, we may have to reduce the set in size.
Also, Sue Doody has also offered to do a raffle basket, that will make 4 baskets for the raffle! We are looking to start selling tickets at the yard sale.
The next meeting will be at Gary Dube's house. There has been a change in the day for the next meeting.to Saturday March 22nd @the same time 6pm. The idea is to hopefully give more people an opportunity to come and not have to rush to get to the meeting.

STEVENS HIGH SCHOOL - CLAREMONT, NH CLASS OF 1974 A blog dedicated to the 260 of us who passed through those hallowed halls of upper education at Stevens in the early 70s. Although 39 years have passed since we made our way out into the world, we still remain identified by those years we spent together in Stevens. Our hometown Claremont, has moved on with the times, but hints of the past remain for us to cherish.

Has anyone thought of maybe putting a motor cycle on the float? An older one as I am sure that would fit. I do remember going to a few Drivins on the back of a motorcycle.
This is like reliving my childhood. My mom managed the drive in from about 1965 into the late 70's. Would love to find a way to incorporate her name into the float. She also drove our floats for a couple of reunions.
Everything sounds fantastic. Will the band be playing 70's music? I have he 70's cd's set from Tv...lol if you would like them for in between? Thank you thank you thank you to all for the hard work.. Would love to see Barb's mom honored!! Anita
