(Technically, the 150 years was for the school that eventually was re-named McKinley High, and was located where Central Middle School is now located. Detail, details)
Anyways, here are some photos!

As the sunset gets closer, I saw a few former classmates. I saw one guy who was 2 years younger than me, but was in the same math class for my junior/senior year. He's on my facebook list but I haven't seen him in person since high school. He's now in the military.
I saw about 4 girls from my graduating class. I didn't hang out with them in high school but one is on my facebook list. I talked with them for a while until they got distracted by other friends.
After the sunset, my homie Aaron G arrived. I was wondering if he would make it since he worked until late afternoon! He arrived at the right time. We saw kids running to the baseball field, meaning it was almost time for the BIG EVENT -..............
.................. The Lighting of The M!
Waiting for the bonfire to start
The bonfire is on!
And for the surprise.......................................................................
Fireworks
Yep, the McKinley students were loud and full of spirit! Tons of energy
Aaron G was telling me "we're old, we don't even have the energy these kids have". LOL!
It did remind me when I was in high school, when me & this other friend used to make noise at pep rallies and other school events!
Makes me wish I was back in high school to relive the moments!
I was glad that our current generation of McKinley Tigers have that spirit and that they have a very wonderful night of memories!
Go Tigers!
