A NIGHT AT THE RACES !
Los Alamitos Race Course 
... September 19, 2008

And the Wilson '63 45th Reunion Weekend is OFF AND RUNNING! 
The first event was again organized by Dennie Hamilton King.

Dennie reports:  "It was so successful when we did this in 2003, we decided we had to do it again.  It was a great turnout for our first event, approximately 85 people. Some people tried their hands at betting; like at the 40th, those classmates picking winning horses were given little magnetic red and yellow blinky lights that Jeri donated.  Many Bruins were seen happily blinking the night away."

Those who still had money after visiting the betting window enjoyed no-host dinner & beverages.  It was a beautiful evening in more ways than one.  Part of Dennie's negotiations with LARC included the privilege of naming a race in honor of our class (the committee settled on "Wilson Alumni'63 - Still Horsin' Around" ) and letting five members of our group go with Dennie to the Winner's Circle to be photographed with the horse and jockey. 

We extended that invitation to a select group of those who had traveled the farthest for the reunion (in the picture below, from left:  Dennie, Marta (aka Judi) Inanchy from Texas, John Graham (Oregon), Billie Goehrig Palmer (England), Evelyn Goehrig Wanner (Pennsylvania), and Bill Tobin (Connecticut) -winners all! That horse, Dashin' Banjo, was highly honored to be in their presence.
