Plan to come,

for a

"Get Together"

Saturday, @ the Century House,

at reserved tables for "Our Class of 69",
joining other Acushnet Alumni, on Sept. 27, 2008.

A reunion to bring

all Acushnet students together!

High school reunions are an American tradition, but one that Acushnet residents have been missing out on for years. In the absence of a town high school, Acushnet students have gone to other school districts, thereby ending the camaraderie between Acushnet students. Although many Acushnet students attend reunions for the high school they attended, several members of the Acushnet Alumni, have joined forces to organize a reunion. Students from Acushnet's then five elementary schools entered Acushnet Junior High School, which was renamed Albert F. Ford Junior High during their stay.

On Sept. 27, 2008 most of them will gather at the Century House in Acushnet for a long-overdue reunion. Organizers have been gathering old photographs to display at the reunion. For more information about the reunion, contact Ms. Julie(Girard)Marchetti at acushnetclassreunion@comcast.net.

Are you a Reason, a Season, or a Lifetime?

People come into your life for
a reason, a season, or a lifetime.
When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.

REASON:

When someone is in your life for a REASON. . . It is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.Sometimes they die.Sometimes they walk away.Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered.

And now it is time to move on. SEASON:

When people come into your life for a SEASON it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.

Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.

LIFETIME:

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Thank you for being a part of my life.

Stop here and just SMILE.
