       The 142nd annual meeting of the BHS-BGM Alumni Association was held Saturday, May 28, 2022 at the Michael J Manatt Community Center with 120 alums, spouses and friends attending. Brooklyn Grocery catered the meal. Susan (Stone) Knox (’71) and Denise (Hall) Ford (’77) registered guests. Dick Simmons (’83) presided over the business meeting. The eldest male grad was Don Brannian from the Class of 1948. Marilyn (Wagner) Lang and Dolores (Roudabush) McLain, 1950 grads, were the eldest female alums. The youngest grad from the Class of ‘88 was Shawn Roberts.
      Ed Graham spoke on behalf of the Class of 1957, which held their reunion at the Classic Deli with 14 alums in attendance. Spokesperson for the 60 year class (1962) was Dianne (Young) Dalton. They held their reunion at the English Valley B & B with 16 grads present. They were the second class to graduate from BGM and of their 42 grads, 19 served in the armed forces. One of their classmates created the bear school logo, and they also chose the BGM fight song. The 50 year class (1972) held their reunion on June 11 at John McCammant’s home near Malcom.  
      It was suggested that we invite Guernsey and Malcom graduates to future alumni events. Discussion was also held regarding changing the date of the 2023 reception to coincide with the Brooklyn Flag Festival, the second weekend in June. Following a vote of the association attendees, it was decided the next reception will be held on May 27, 2023.
