Save the date for a mini-reunion in celebration of the outstanding record of the 1961-1963 Pirate football teams - Southwestern Conference Champs three years!

We've had a great TWO AND A HALF YEARS on the Website.... but we need to find more of our classmates.

2012 WILL BE OUR YEAR TO MAKE REAL PROGRESS IN LOCATING OUR CLASSMATES WHO HAVE NOT BEEN FOUND.

   Thanks to Ron Hanson for suggesting some new ideas and renewed momentum in the effort to get more of our friends from the Rocky River High School Class of 1963

to join our site and attend our BIG 50th reunion!

Stay tuned for more details - and how YOU can help.

 WOW! Over 25,000 hits - and counting - on this little Web site.  Only one hit PER DAY per person is tallied, so we are getting a lot of traffic, a lot of email, and more participation than you know.  It all started in July 2009, so  we are averaging over 700 hits a month!!

THANKS TO ALL OF US WHO ARE OUT HERE, AND WELCOME TO 

DON'T FORGET TO ENCOURAGE ANYONE YOU KNOW
WHO ISN'T HERE TO JOIN US.

The Pirate says:  We still have a long way to go to reach our classmates...

If each of us does his or her part to contact any of our non-participating or missing members, it would really help to add interest, variety and excitement to rockyriver63.com. 

The real success of this Web site is the communication and catching up among our classmates that has begun and continues because we're all out here.  That will be multiplied each time we add a new member who can be in touch with former classmates and new friends.  Can you help? - Please?

NOSTALGIC LINKS  have been added to the Menu Bar. Turn your speakers on and take some time to look back at our history!   LIVE CHAT IS NOW IN PLACE, and improvements are on the way. For now, the best way classmates can use it is to set up an "appointment" to have a chat - any two or more alumni - until Instant Messaging is working. Try it with one or more of your friends!  Please take a look at the free-for-all known as "Message Forum" and use this opportunity to speak your mind about ANYTHING. (We need some new ideas....  You'll see.)

 Note: This site is for childhood friends, attendees and graduates of Rocky River High School, Class of 1963. It is completely FREE to our alumni and is privacy protected. And, there will NEVER be  advertising on this site. Just log in and update your profile!

Why not add your photos and stories?

It really brings the history of our class to life.  The more participation we get to represent the members of the RRHS Class of '63 the more classmates we will have join us.

Even if you haven't attended a reunion, nor kept in touch at all since graduation, please take the time to update your profile and upload your photos.  Your submissions will make this site more fun, more interesting and complete. 

Seeing you at the 50th Reunion would be a bonus for your classmates!

What better way to connect with an old friend?  Just open up the classmate's profile you're looking for, write your message at the bottom of the profile, and click the "Send email" link.  

We hear a lot of emails are being exchanged!

You'll see - your classmates would love to hear from you!

 "Message Center" makes class emailing easier!
Now you can write and send new messages directly from the "Message Center" page, instead of having to go to the '63 Alumni Profiles.  Moreover, your messages, both sent and received, are saved for reference. And each dialogue is saved in a history, or "thread".

In time you will likely have many threads, which are all accessible through a page indexing legend at the top of the Messages page.  This will allow you to click to go to previous pages of threads.

You can toggle between "inbox" and "outbox", and even sort your messages.  

If you don't want to save older threads, just click on the red 'X' at the right to delete them. If you are sure you won't need to refer to older messages, delete several threads at once by checking the box at the left, and then clicking on the "Delete selected threads" button at the bottom.

Email messaging - an easy way to contact an old friend-
or make a new one!  Please stay in touch!
