CALIFORNIA DREAMIN' 2014

Scroll down for updates...

The BHS Class '67 and Friends bash began last night at Bob's Big Boy in Toluca Lake where we'd go after the football games in high school and where yours truly was a carhop not longer after that :)

Then the troops went to Sardos for more fun which included karoke!

Later today we'll be meeting up at DeBell's Canyon Grille around 4 pm so if in town, please join.

Please email me your pics and I will post: cathyjpalmer@yahoo.com

John Muir Middle School or Richard M Nixon?

Joanne Yoffee Furer, BHS '67, sent the following email and pics to me today... Thanks Joanne!

IF THE SCHOOL LOOKS FAMILIAR...

Hi Cathy,

If the school looks familiar in the new CBS show Bad Teacher (starts this Thursday, April 24), it’s because John Muir Middle School is the set for the fictitious RM Nixon Middle School! It took a moment, as I was driving by the school last September, to focus on when and why the Muir mascot was changed. Once I noticed the other changes and the camera crews, it all made sense in Burbank, Media Capital of the World. Naturally—no reflection on our own John Muir Junior High teachers, but it will be fun to see if we recognize any of the locations on campus. I attached some pictures I took of the exterior filming last September.

I hope all is well with you.

Joanne

Scroll down to see who's coming and Updates!
Okay! We are looking at SATURDAY, JULY 19 for our annual Class '67 + Friends Reunion at Canyon Grille (formerly DeBell Clubhouse Grill).

Dona Foy Pocaro Bruckner posted this on Facebook:
"Hello everyone, I spoke with the folks at DeBell and we are welcome to have our reunion there. We need to give them a date because they book golf tournaments. Once I threw out Jim Grasses's name he was super friendly and said they would work with us on room charge. He then told me how great Jim and his boys are but I told him we already knew what a super guy Jim was!!!! I told him we usually did cash bar and order food on your own. So, let's pick a date!!!! Take care and I hope lots of our classmates show up as we have a great time!!!! Out of Towners, please let us know if July 19th works."

So we picked SATURDAY, JULY 19, 2014 at Canyon Grille at DeBell Golf Course

SATURDAY TIME: 4:00 PM
