This is the place were we are going to put all the announcements and Eagle Brag items. If any ole Eagle has anything they want to put on the bulletin board send it to us via Email or the Comments section of the Sign-In form and we will see that it gets posted. However, we are reserving the right to do a little editing on the item in case Lake Worth happens to be listening in (a local joke). For now we will let the item stay on the bulletin board for a week or two before cleaning it off.
Change of Command We have just been informed that the Principal of CHS has just been promoted to a FWISD Administration Position. Mr. Greg Ruthart has taken Ms. Sanchez' place as Principal of the School. Also, for those who keep such records, the phone number has also changed. The new number is 817-814-9000. The last time I checked, the School is still located on Yucca Street in Fort Worth. Also a new face in the crowd is Michael Mendez who has taken over the Library chores at the school. He says that our good friend Linda Taylor retired and is doing well in her retirement.
Carter-Riverside High School History Book in the
Works The latest information about the History Book is that the staff didn't receive the 600 orders required to have the book printed. Therefore the Staff is having to go through the School System in selecting a publisher. This is where the hang-up is. They will let us know the outcome as soon as they know it. Hang in there.........
Some Views
from the 75th Anniversary Program I was going to insert some pictures here from the Anniversary Program, but found out that I am running out of space for many more pictures..............therefore, I will add the following link instead as found on the high school web page. This link has a smattering of all the activities that went on, but without the captions to the pictures. I will try to work on getting more picture space so I can add what captions that I know of. You may want to point and click at the first picture to slow down the slide show. After you click on the link, it will take you to the high school web page. Then you need to click on View Photo Gallery. You may then need to click on the forward button at the bottom of the picture to select one picture at a time. The slide show moves pretty fast. Here is the link.....

The URL for the high school web page is....... http://schools.fwisd.org/carterriverside/Pages/Default.aspx I would personally like to see the resume's of the teachers like was shown for the Principal and VP's.
Football Tunnel Project In case you have forgotten, the Alumni Association added the Football Tunnel to their list of projects last year. The Tunnel's first public appearance was at the homecoming game last year. We are told that the cost of this edifice was in the neighborhood of $6500 and paid for by Allen Coskrey '82 a staunch alumni to get it built and on the field. The Alumni Association is now trying to raise money to help pay Allen back. They are also trying to raise more money for recognition of the Band. For the last two years in a row, the Band has been rated Division 1 in UIL competition. If you have any loose shekels in your pocket, how about a tax deductible donation to the Alumni Association at P.O. Box 7005

The group has received pictures of the event from Virginia Mauldin-Hicks and will publish those as soon as they get through with the decorating series. The pictures on the blog change frequently so check it out often. At the bottom of the site is the word COMMENT. Click on it and a dialog box opens for you to "blog" with us.

We will work your pictures into one of the weeks of publishing.
Enjoy, The Committee Note to Melvin Evans, I named you and Juanita in one of the pictures and was not sure that I had it right. Please feel free to correct me and if it is not you two then maybe you will know whose name it should be. I apologize if I am wrong, but if I am right please feel free to give me a pat on the back. I just didn't get around to everyone that night but will the next time we all meet. Rosie and the Committee ED Comment: For those that may be new to this kind of technology, the term BLOG comes from the term "Web Log", and by definition a BLOG is a website where the entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order. Now, aren't you glad you asked??

Hob-Knobbing With

More Hob-Knobbing
Mike Fleetwood, class of 1969 brushing shoulders with the King of the Circuit, Richard Petty at Petty Enterprises in Randleman, NC. Mike said that he spent two days with Richard Petty and has to admit that he's one of the nicest guys that he's ever had the pleasure to meet and do business with. "This was a great trip and I'll never forget the time that I spent with the 'King' of NASCAR. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Petty Enterprises."
Sam Shortes '53 is shown here in the Oval Office with President Reagan during his last year in office. Sam is presenting the President with an engraved and gold inlaid Bowie knife and Colt-Walker pistol (in Presidents left hand). These items are presently on display in Reagan's Presidential Library. The same knife is on display in the Alamo museum and another one was owned by Actor John Wayne. The theme of the engraving was the "Alamo." The engravings on both sides of the Bowie Knife are of final assault. Reagan had some dozen pieces ---mostly Colts and Winchesters -- starting back when he was Governor of California. Sam has also engraved some things for George H. Bush before he became president.

Food For Thought...While
Looking Thru The Annual Makes me sad. So many gone. Yet, so many did good, beyond any concept that I may of had. Lawyers, FBI agents, US Marshals, Soldiers, Preachers, Educators, Homemakers, Entrepreneurs, Doctors, Nurses, Ranchers, Actors, Architects, Engineers, Scientists, Bankers, Cowboys, Cowgirls, Builders. Aggies, tea sippers, Frogs, Red Raiders, Fightin' Irish, Sooners, Rams, Huskers, Eagles, Bears, Cougars, UTA Rebels, and many other colleges plus the Military. Yep, Carter Riverside should be Proud of the wonderful students that graced it's Halls since 1937 or 38 when it was allowed to "educate" the kids from "Riverside". I am Thankful that I was allowed the opportunity to attend the best high school in Fort Worth. Dang! It was a wonderful experience growin' up in Riverside.
