        Editor’s Note: To all alumni, it is our ultimate goal to have at least one small piece of news to report on from each class. Please submit news on what has been
        happening in your life or some information on a classmate that you know. It does not matter if your class does not have a rep. The information will be submitted
        under your class year. Simply send the information to your class rep or send directly to Jessica Milligan at the address:

        Jessica Milligan - Green Minnow Media -222 Freeman Ridge Road, Freeman Township, ME 04983  - jess@greenminnow.com
        To all class reps, please start working soon on gathering information for your class. The deadline for submission to be included in the Fall/Winter issue is October,
        1 2020. Please double check that your contact information is correct. If there is an error, please notify Jess at the above address so that we might make corrections in
        future newsletters.

        To all classes without reps, please strive to get someone to be your class rep. With the new website, there can be personalized online training on how to use the site
        to contact all of your classmates to urge them to send information. This is available to all reps. It will make your job as a rep much easier than in the past. To learn
        more about becoming a rep and the use of the website, contact:
        Fred Grant, The Houlton High School Alumni Association - PO Box 990 - Houlton, ME 04730 - (207) 532-4030 (H) - fred@whoufm.com


           CLASS REPS REMINDER: Please review your contact information and if updates need to be made, contact Jess at the above
           listed address with corrections. This is your newsletter. We need your help to make it the best alumni newsletter possible. Thank you
