Marcia was able to reserve a small block of rooms at The Clarkson Inn. Rooms are $119 per night with one queen size bed or $129 with two queen size beds. They will hold the rooms until July 4. Their phone number is 315-265-3050. I've posted a link to their website at the left, as well as links for other accommodation possibilities and various informational sites from Potsdam and the surrounding area. If you'd like to post a blog or website, send it along to me (mehartle@hotmail.com) and I will add it to the list.

Our Reunion Plans are Moving Along
Our 40th Reunion Weekend is confirmed for July 25 and 26. Plans include
* Friday night CASUAL GATHERING at the Shore Lounge in Hannawa Falls
* Saturday morning GOLF for those who pre-register
* Saturday afternoon TOUR of the high school for those interested (there have been lots of changes in 40 years)

We will soon post and mail event details and a response form. As we receive responses, we will post a list of classmates you can plan to see at the Reunion and their contact information if they want it published.
Remember, we would love to have you leave comments, information, questions, memories, etc., by clicking on "comments" below. You can also e-mail photo files to me and I will post them to the blog. mehartle@hotmail.com
It is indeed ironic that we spend our school days yearning to graduate and our remaining days waxing nostalgic about our school days. ~Isabel Waxman
We Need Your Help
Our Reunion plans are coming together nicely. A "save the date" postcard was sent to all those classmates for whom we had addresses. A few have been returned as "undeliverable" and we hope you can help. Here are those people we have been unable to contact.

Happy New Year!
Hi everyone and Happy New Year from Martha Hartle to all members of the PCS Class of '68! Although we all know we are not getting older but better, this year marks our 40th year since graduating from Potsdam High School in 1968.
I've decided to begin this blog, which I hope will gather momentum and postings so that we can keep everyone in touch and up to date. As well, I hope we can use the blog as our main means of sharing information about our next Reunion. It's an easy way to share news and links. Mail or e-mail your favorite photos to me and I will post them on the blog.
First, let me share some personal updates. Most importantly, I am now a Grandmother (known as Bammie - my family's nickname for grandmother). Ben was born on November 1, 2007. My daughter Angela and her husband Keith are the proud parents.
I live in Hartford, CT and am an administrator at Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center http://www.stfranciscare.org/
Four generations of Hartles -- Martha, Angela, Ben, and Gervise, my Dad. (My Mom passed away in 1999.)
I hope to keep in touch with many of you and that we can build a thorough directory of our classmates so that we can include them in our Reunion plans. All you need to do is subscribe to "Blogger" so that you can share information with all of us. Subscribing is simple and free. All you need to do is enter your e-mail address and a password when you are prompted before posting your first "comment." Please try it and encourage others to do the same. For those folks not using e-mail, ask them for their home address and phone number so that we can contact them.
Also check out http://www.potsdam.k12.ny.us/HS/ and click on "Alumni." We will be posting Reunion information there, as well. More to come soon, including a SAVE THE DATE.
