Dear editor:

It is so great to hear that you are reminiscing about the last 30 years. After all, there are some of us that attended the FC from its conception. My sister, Wendy Lindskoog, and I, Joan Lindskoog Irish, are two of them.

The school has grown so much since that first year with a 3rd/4th combined class and a 5th/6th combined class at the old Peoples Church. Once we out grew that space, I remember the temp. building on the other side of town. Then we moved to the big school building at the newer Peoples Church and it just keeps on growing.

I remember Sadie Hawkins dances during the high school years and the parking lot where all the seniors hung out, Senior ditch day, our great senior trip to Lake Shasta on the houseboats (that was a blast).

I also remember getting in trouble for speeding in my black Trans Am through that parking lot and having a meeting with Mr. (Randall) Plaugher. I also remember all of us gals torturing Mr. (Allen) Tong in basketball.

But I must say my fondest memory was at graduation. Matt House stood up to give his speech and took off his hat to reveal a very creative haircut and dye job?everyone cracked up. It was great. I have so many great memories of high school and they will live with me forever.

I hope that I can see some of my old classmates some day.

Vallecito, CA
Class of 1986

P.S. I hope to plan a 25-year reunion at our winery in Calaveras County – Murphys area. Can you provide me with an alumni list one for my class?
