BCHS Class of 1965 Gathers for 60th Anniversary
Broadwater County High School’s class of l965 gathered August 17 at a classmate’s house to renew old acquaintances and catch up on new happenings in the nearly 80-year-olds’ lives.
The highlight of the luncheon was a Townsend Star article saved by classmate Nancy Marks. The article, written by well-known Independent Record sports reporter Norm Clark, hailed the Bulldogs as winners of the 1964 Eastern Division football championship held at Townsend against the Superior team. Townsend was undefeated that year. Six of the players of the eight-man team, Jerry Waling, Harry Buckingham, Chuck Smith, Dan Wooley, Tracy Plummer and Mike Ragen, were present at the reunion. Casey Keltz coached the team. Several members of the team followed Keltz to Western Montana College at Dillon to play college football following graduation in 1965.
Ten classmates joined the reunion, accompanied by spouses and friends. In addition to those previously mentioned, attendees included Cliff and Missy Cox, Kent and Crystal Grover, Cathy Buckingham, Felicity Dagnall McFerrin, Sally Harris Bruce, Linda Wallace White, Virginia Lau Wooley, Ginnie Waling and her sister Sandy, and George Harrigfeld.
