    Cheltenham High School Class of 1958 50th Reunion Weekend October 25 and 26, 2008 June 1958, is it really 50 years? We said good-bye to CHS with laughter and through tears. Now is the time to come together, to re-live happy days, to share the stories of our lives since we parted ways. Come solo, bring your spouse, a date, a friend or significant other. We have decided to hold the reunion at the Huntingdon Valley Country Club to be as convenient for all the classmates that have stayed nearby as well as giving you out-of-towners a chance to return to the old neighborhood. Do you remember – Double dates, lunch boxes with thermos, the Hot Shoppe, Lee’s Hoagies, Erlen theater? When war was a card game. How about Willow Grove Park? Howdy Doody? Lone Ranger? Walking to school? Farber’s? 3-D movies? The Shadow knows? Go to our website, WWW.CHS1958.NET (old url still works) for updated information on the weekend. Also look under ‘Class Roster’. Check for incorrect information. Contact old friends. Hunt down the missing. Let Mickey Langsfeld at 1673 Paper Mill Road, Meadowbrook, PA, 19046 or [email protected] know about any of these changes or additions. As part of our celebration, we hope to put together a souvenir yearbook. Please fill in and send the enclosed page that should include your name at the top with your address, telephone number and e-mail address. Please include a recent photo. The remainder is your call – spouses, kids, grandchildren, Cheltenham memories or anything that can be printed.
