We are working hard to get all the information together to make this website a place where Alumni of the Alba-Golden Schools will be able to find out information on the upcoming 50th year Class Reunion in 2006 and to be able to find out email information to be able to get in touch with old classmates and friends. Your help is greatly appreciated. If you have any old photos or stories you would like to share with your friends and classmates email them to me and I will make sure that they get posted. I am working on getting the photo album up. So please try and help us bring back the old memories of your class. Also if you have a website you would like us to link to please also email them to me. Please use the guestbook below to sign in and leave your email information for your friends and classmates. I am working on building a secure data base but have not had time to get it finished as of yet. So we will start with this. Email me if you have any questions or have any information for me pertaining to this website. Thank you in advance for your help and cooperation.
Thank you Cindy Barnett Lake Fork Computer Solutions
Alba-Golden All Class Reunion Held to Celebrate 49 Years of Consolidation
Over 160 Classmates Attended First Annual Event
A celebration was held in early March for the Alba and Golden school alumni attendees. The two schools consolidated to become Alba-Golden in 1956, almost 50 years ago.
In preparation for the 2006 reunion, a team was assembled early in 2005 to form the first of what will become an annual all class reunion. The event welcomed all A-G classmates who live locally and those who traveled from many locations. This included spouses or significant others, several children and well-loved teachers. Efforts to contact even more former teachers will continue for 2006.
Those who attended, yet did now graduate from Alba-Golden were welcome and did enjoy the event as well.
the event took place on Saturday, March 5, 2005 at the Alba-Golden school cafetorium. The crowd enjoyed a pot luck luncheon, shared memories and reconnected with old friends. The theme included decorations in red, white and blue – the school colors.
Attendees brought memorabilia from their years at Alba-Golden, sang the school song, and shared current information via forms and a newly-developed special web site - https://fishingfork.com/AlbaGolden.htm This secure web site was created complements of Lake Fork Computer Solutions located on Highway 19 in Alba.
Donations began this year with contributions from alumni members, Wal-Mart and other local businesses. Additional contributions for future years can be made to the Hibernia Bank in Mineola, Texas. The account is Alba-Golden All Class Reunion.
Everyone enjoyed the day and the opportunity to reconnect and exchange information with long lost friends.
Thanks to all who supported the event, attended and made efforts to help even if they could not attend. 2006 would be even bigger and better!
Contributed by Aline Parrish, class of 1973.
