Anonymous Submitted report The McAlester News-Capital Fri Sep 21, 2012, 03:22 PM CDT

McALESTER — The McAlester High School Class of 1954 will mark its 58th year since graduation by holding a reunion Oct. 5-6 at the Hampton Inn at 711 S. George Nigh Expressway.

Very few scheduled events have been planned in order to allow graduates and local friends free time to socialize and to visit old haunts.

Three events scheduled include a luncheon at the Whistle Stop Bistro in North McAlester on Oct. 5; a tour of the Scottish Rite Masonic Center following the luncheon, and an evening of small talk, food and beverages in the Hampton Inn’s first-floor conference room Oct. 6.

Local classmates and individuals having friends in the Class of 1954 who wish to attend the reunion functions may contact Betty Long Talley at 918-423-4992 by Sept. 28.
