Salute to Class of 1959 (Jim Provensal)
(To enlarge, click image - to return, back-arrow)
During Bennington Catholic High's 50th class reunion at the Mount Anthony Country Club today, 15 white balloons were released to the heavens, representing the 15 departed classmates. As the balloons ascended, a rainbow appeared. (Lois Ostrander)
On September 7th, 1955, seventy seven young people assembled at St. Frances de Sales Academy to plant seeds, start traditions and launch the future of Bennington Catholic High School. They are truly our "Founding Fathers (and Mothers)" and have blessed us with so much. In June of 1959, this same class exploded like fireworks into the real world.
The reunion this weekend showed all, that their spirit is still alive, well, and radiating the glow of the initial fireworks. The class continues to set trends for the future.
As a member of the last graduating class of BCHS, I thank you and salute you all for giving us this spirit.
