Tara High School

Patrick Solomon

First off, thanks to ALL responsible for the organization of the reunion....it was great...another great memory!!

I have to agree, it went way too fast and i feel that i didnt have enough time to catch up with everyone.

As for the next chin-dig, in 5 yrs or so,may I suggest a few things.
1) Drop the caterer, and buy a real bartender...and maybe we can lose the coats/ties also.
2)Maybe a crawfish boil, at someone's large house (not me), with a keg and a few 1/2 gallons of premium liquor. Shorts and a tee shirt as attire.
3) Bring the wife, girlfriend/boyfriend (or both) and family too.

I will be happy to assist in the planning if needed, just let me know.

Thanks again...i am still laughing at some of the things i heard/saw.

p.s. As for Coates, i checked and he didnt come back across the Mexican-US border until the following Monday, i dont know what he told you.

Alicia Sutton Jones

Our 20 year reunion was a blast!!!! I agree...the weekend went by too fast. I can't believe I stayed on the dance floor all night. Robin had me beat!! Hee..Hee.. That was fun! You guys look great. Hard to believe we graduated from high school 20 years ago. I look forward to our 25th reunion in 2013.

Michael Craig

Patrick, I agree less formal, no suits allowed!!

Let's start at Leard's house, I think we ALL owe him some leftover party supplies to clean-up before Mom and Dad get home.

Hey Chris,
What about Saturday night!!?

To All,
Thanks for a Great Time!!

Robin Poche

Lisa Guice

I really hate that I missed the reunion. It sounds like everyone had a great time. I love all the pictures! I'll make it a point to be at the 25th!

Kara Clark Jones

Hey THS grads,
It looks like everyone had a wonderful time at the zoo and the dance. Sorry that I had to miss it. I really look forward to seeing everyone at the 25th. I'll make sure that I wear my dancing shoes then. I won't plan our family vacation for the same day as the reunion next time. I enjoyed seeing all the pictures and hearing stories from Katie. Everyone has done a great job keeping in touch via the web. Keep it up. Take care.

That was obvious the other night!!! Please let me know if you can make it the first weekend in AUGUST!! WE are ready.. just need to know if ya'll are!!

Dawn Knight Bankston

Nikki, I'd love to get together to visit with everybody again. The first weekend in August sounds good to me.

Mary "Nikki" Canova Sumner

Great Dawn... I will count you in... and will give you more details when I found out how many people are coming... But... sounds good to me..

Chantel Chiasson Pizzillo

Nikki, A party sounds great, I promise to be more sociable than at the reunion. I may have plans the first Saturday night, but they are not definite yet. Let us know when, where, what to bring and if you need any help with cleaning, cooking etc....

Tami Toms Byrd

Party sounds great, I didn't get to talk to everyone I wanted to catch up with at the Reunion, but I am going to a big Triathlon that weekend in Shreveport actually the next weekend is also busy for us, we will be out of town. So basically we would love to be at any party you plan but depending on the date we may not be able to come. But definitely let me know if something is firmed up and we will definitely be there if we can. It was great seeing all you guys!!!!!!! OOOOOh the memories!!!
Tami Toms Byrd

Kristi Winders Campbell

Thanks to Alicia, Dawn and Michelle for the hard work and time you put into the reunion. It was awesome! I had a great time seeing everyone and reminiscing about our days at Tara. I loved how the spouses seemed to fit right in and have agood time--mine sure did.
Everyone looked great--not 20 years older at all. I'm certainly in for a 25th and will help in whatever capacity is needed. Oh, and the CD is great! I've had fun showing my daughters how to "really" dance and teaching them the art of "big hair". Tara 1988 was the best! Thanks again for a great night--I'm looking forward to the next reunion.

Mary "Nikki" Canova Sumner

Okay Guys!! doesn't look like a party this weekend.. only have one person that can attend.. and I am starting a new job on Monday.. so I have lots to do this weekend.. lets plan another weekend. I am game for what ever.. ya'll tell me.

Michelle Talbot Alello

So, Nikki,it seems to be the perfect weekend to host a Hurricane Party...How 'bout it? : )

Seriously, everyone please be prepared and stay safe.

And remember, we have several classmates who have homes FAR North of us....

Joe Buckholz

Hey all, I'm hoping everyone made it through Gustav ok. If there is anything us "Northerners" ;) can do for y'all just let me know!! Thank goodness this wasn't as bad as Katrina! Just know we're thinking about all of you and we're here if you need us!

Mary "Nikki" Canova Sumner

Hey.. maybe we can have a post hurricane party and a hell ya... we got power back party!! I am ready! let me know when ya'll want to do it!

Michelle Talbot Alello

I am DEFINITELY ready to celebrate having electricity again! Blow drying my hair in front of a box fan was NOT fun!
Nikki, you set the date & I'll help you get things together for a post-hurricane party.
Save October 24th for the THS post-Homecoming party.

Leslie Allison Duplantis
