In spite of the heat, those of us who attended the class picnic enjoyed lots of great food and company. Keep following the website to see what other crazy ideas might pop up from your reunion committee.
Here's hoping that you all had a great summer and will enjoy cruising into fall and some more moderate temperatures!

I'm sad to say that we had no takers on the NYC trip. Several people were interested but based on current economic conditions and/or the fact that it was a holiday weekend they just couldn't go. Many thanks to James Ford for inviting us on this excursion.....I'm sure it would have been a blast to have the Spirits of '68 descend on NYC!!

It's hard to believe it's been over seven months since the reunion! That means we're that much closer to our next one in 2013!!! The Class Directories are FINALLY on their way to everyone who attended the reunion or ordered one on the website. There are still a few available for $10 if anyone wants one. If you didn't get your information in the last one, please take the time to complete the Class Directory info on this website. I am trying to keep info updated as we go along which will make the production much easier next time around. Also be sure to let us know if you have a change of address, e-mail, etc. Thanks for checking in...... Pati

The website is in the process of being updated so please check back often for the latest information and newest photos from the reunion. If you attended, we hope you had as much fun as we did and if you missed it, we hope you will join us at the 45 Year Reunion in 2013!

Seventy-three of the " Spirits of '68" from Lebanon High School were back in town on July 18th & 19th to celebrate our 40 Year Class Reunion. It was a magnificent weekend of reconnecting with former classmates and reminiscing about the "good old days." We will be posting more and more photos as they become available and plan to begin working on the 45 Year Reunion, soon. This website will be maintained and updated. Our hope is that after seeing what a great time was had by all, that you will want to join us at the next celebration in 2013!
