If you are a graduate of Beverly [Massachusetts] High School in the Class of 1960, or were ever in our class at any point along the way, this is your website. These 43 pages also may be of interest to others that were in high school with us, i.e., members of BHS classes of '58, '59, '61 and '62. There are links to the Ryal Side Elementary School page, the unofficial Camp Herrick website, and to many other Beverly related websites. You can submit pictures to share with your classmates, and enjoy well over 500 images and photos already published here. Our classmates, who voted to establish this site at the 41st Reunion in 2001, hope everyone will use it to get in touch and stay in touch. We want to be able to contact everyone for the next newsletter, and reunion invitations. Please keep us updated with your latest email address and especially your regular USPS mailing address. If we have your email address you will receive about 2-3 unsolicited emails per year, always about BHS '60 matters. Here you can post bulletins within the guidelines of this site. Announcements will keep you informed. Perhaps you can help us locate "lost" classmates (see list)? Sadly, there is also a list of those known to have passed away. The Webmaster will help you contact your old friends from long ago if possible. Rest assured that no personal information about anyone will be posted on this site without specific permission. See below for a list of Recent Updates to This Website. Below that list appears a few current notices. |

Page referred to as "People With Whom We Recently Lost Contact"

Quite a bit of revision is being performed on the Newsletters
page. You should check it out, along with the Announcements
page, from time to time to stay current. Prim and I are beginning
work on
another BHS 1960 Connections, our true newsletter. Those
classmates who sent something in for publication for the "Memory Book"
and didn't make the first issue of "Connections" may make the 2nd issue.
Someone may contact you for permission, and perhaps a revision or update.
If you have something new to say, send it to Prim. See "Newsletters" page.

CURRENT NOTICES FROM WEBMASTER
|
Beware of All "Reunion" Pay Sites All self-described "reunion" and "find your long lost classmates" type websites are suspect, at the very least,
and if you have to pay to join, or to get access to advanced features, positively so. The only way you might find
anyone is if that person also happens to join the same website you did. These sites publish false entries with
actual names of some of your classmates. Think of a fisherman baiting a hook, or putting out a chum line (chump
line, in this case). Some of us joined one of these years ago, and proved this. Because I knew the actual location
of 300+ member of BHS '60 at that time, I could spot the bogus entries immediately.

Invitation to Casual Night at the ICC [Will open in a new window - no need to hit back arrow] |
| How To Contact the Webmaster You can send traditional USPS mail to the address you see
here.
|
| A Note About Facebook There are quite a few of our BHS '60 classmates that now have a Facebook page. Facebook is the number one
social networking website worldwide. It allows you to easily keep in touch with many friends at the same
time. It is a bit superficial, but fun. There are others from classes that were at BHS with us, those in
BHS '58, '59, '61, '62. People you know are joining all the time.

Help!! Volunteer(s) Needed NOTICE: I think this site needs a little reorganizing and revamping. We are open to comments and suggestion on this idea and anything else, for that matter. PLEASE: If anyone with close ties to BHS Class of 1960 knows HTML, I could really use some volunteer help, on this site and especially the related Camp Herrick and Ryal Side Elementary School sites, as I do not really have the time to do everything properly. Contact Bill Nisbet, Webmaster |
| SOMEONE CAN USE YOUR YEARBOOK |
|
Attention BHS Classes '57 through '62:
Some of our classmates do not have their yearbooks anymore, and some never had one.
Occasionally I get a query asking if a yearbook is available. Please consider sending unwanted yearbooks
to the address you see here.
Not to get overly morbid, just realistic, let your future heirs know about this. Unfortunately,
when we pass away our yearbooks are probably tossed in the trash, when they could be making
another of our classmates very happy. Thanks in advance.
