McGregor, Texas - Founders' Day 2008
MHS Class of 1968 - 40th Reunion
Saturday, September 20th, 2008
 

The Bad Seeds are doing things a little differently this year.  The past three years we have rehearsed in the Parlor (rehearsal hall) and around 6:00pm we moved our equipment 2 blocks, setup and played "onstage."  While that is good fun we believe having everyone come to the Parlor is a better idea.  It gives all of us more time to visit with our friends and classmates.

Remember The Bad Seeds dances from 2000-2002?  We have decided to do it again, same idea, different place. This year we honor the MHS Class of 1968, so if you attended MHS any year close to 1968 [or know someone that did] you are invited to come party with us September 20th, 2008.

Location:  Come to the Parlor Studio 118-B South Main Street, McGregor, TX 76657.  Use the entrance "in the alley" off of [East] 2nd Street [see map].  There is a large black (circular) "The Bad Seeds" sign by the [rear] entrance door.

The Parlor is "the base location" for all things involving the '68 class reunion and for all surrounding year classmates meeting and getting together.  [It is more convenient to the Founders' Day celebration than the Hermann Sons Hall on Johnson Drive].

Contact:  If you would, please call / contact people [that you would like to see] and invite them to come.   If you have a classmates e-mail address send them the web address for this web page: www.thebadseeds.com/founders_day
