07/11/07 - NNHS Newsletter In the Good Old Summertime “I walk without flinching through the burning cathedral of the summer. My bank of wild grass is majestic and full of music. It is a fire that solitude presses against my lips.” - Violette Leduc, Mad in Pursuit (7 Apr 1907 - 28 May 1972)

Dear Friends and Schoolmates,   

    We're continuing our summer time themes with this Platinum Oldie from 1902. 

   You'll be happy to find we're beginning another series of goodies today, located as always at the bottom of the page, just above the lyrics and credits.

  From Me ('65) of NC - 07/11/07 - "Fun with Music":

   While chatting with    Fred Mays ('60) of VA the other day, he reminded me how much fun it was to crank the volume on the Newsletters and sing along with the midis.  I'd dropped the habit so that I wouldn't disturb the whole household, but as I was all alone this morning, I thought I'd give it another whirl this morning.  Today's song is quite simple and fun, as were some others:

http://www.nnhs65.00freehost.com/09-02-06-NNHS-September-Song.html

   I found some of these to be rather challenging, but the stretch was quite amusing:

   It's fun - try it! Thanks for the reminder, Fred!

   WOWZERONI!!! Thanks, Buster - it's really gorgeous! How blessed we are!

  From Steve Veazey ('60) of VA - 07/11/07:

Carol, dearest of the Dear, our Peninsula Sports Club is holding a special night for ex-NNHS/Menchville HS coach Charley Nuttycombe and we desperately need a method of spreading the word. Your web site might be the best of ways to do so.

Please, capture/reformat/re-do the following and post as a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT – MILESTONE AWARD on NNHS65:

Many, many thanks to you, Carol.

Steve Veazey NNHS ‘60

   Oh, Steve, how exciting! It'll be carried on all the Newsletters between now and then.  It's also posted on the main page of the site, as well as Coach Nuttycombe's page:

IMPORTANT REPEATS:

From Karrin Williams Frankie (Warwick HS - '61) of VA - 06/26/07 - "Calling all Riverside Hospital Graduates":

I just received this email from a high school classmate to pass on. Please pass onto anyone you think might be a nurse or knows someone so they can have a great reunion. With so many people moving or getting married or re-married after graduation, it is hard to find everyone and emailing is a wonderful tool.

Thanks.


Karrin,

I know you have access to other classes besides our own. We are trying to let as many people know about our reunion as possible. Please forward this if it is not too much trouble.

Riverside School of Professional Nursing is having a Grand Reunion of all classes July 21 and July 22, 2007. There will be a luncheon on Saturday and a tour of the new school campus. Saturday night is open for the individual classes to meet. Sunday there will be a family picnic in NN Park, Jefferson Avenue near Ft. Eustis.

If you are a graduate or know someone who is, please help us get the word out so as many as possible will know and be able to attend. e-mail response or questions to:
rspnalumni@widowmaker.com

You can also e-mail me.
Judy Ring Whitehead
swhitehead4@cox.net

Judy

In the Good Old Summertime

Music by George Evans; Words by Ren Shields

From "The Defender", 1902

In the good old summertime, in the good old summertime.
Strolling through the shady lanes with your baby mine.
You hold her hand, and she holds yours,
and that's a very good sign.
That she's your tootsie-wootsie,
In the good old summertime.

In the good old summertime, in the good old summertime.
Strolling through the shady lanes with your baby mine.
You hold her hand, and she holds yours,
and that's a very good sign.
That she's your tootsie-wootsie,
in the good old summertime.
