I was there from the very start. School two and a half days a week, road hockey two and a half days a week.
Remember the very first assembly. First day of high schools (cue the "WONDER YEARS" theme song.) We all met in the auditorium and Mr Read introduced the first staff.
A mixture of young fresh starts and some grizzled old veterans.
Then this greasy bum stood up, ratty old suit, rattier old beard. Looked like a reject from the Grateful Dead. Welcome to our new music teacher. Bonus points if you can remember his name. We sang some goofy song "A rum sum sum - a rum sum sum. A gooly gooly golly golly rum sum sum".
Wow. 35 years ago.
Dwayne

Pretty cool site . My name is Dale Whitehead I went to Bayside from 73 and moved away in late 76 during grade 12 . I used to hang out and party with Dave Sneath , Mike Dobson , Don Boucher , Ron Fry , Deb Sinclair , David Frietag , Danny Latimer , Sandi Arsenault , Mike Parberry , Toby Pike ....
I agree Dale... good messageboard. In any case this is Randy Phillips (1974-1979) and I found this site through one of Jules' Facebook postings. I immediately "lurked" thru' it from front to back.
Talk about reviving ghosts of the past.
Carol MacIsaac mentioned the having her locker in the "Ghetto"... I remember bumping into Carol in Kingston in the early 80's, we were both working in the same building. Nice to hear...um I guess the word would be "of" you after all these years.
But the ghetto...that infamous corner at the end of the main hall...did you ever wonder what happened to that loose association of, ummm... students?
Well we're all still pretty much intact after all these years and had a bunch of reunions this past summer after Rick Petit and I bumped into each other on facebook.
Those who got together included included myself, Rick and Ron Petit, Rob and Eric Baker, Steve Peckitt, Brian Trent (still married to Pam Coyles btw), Kathy Coyles, Mike Parberry, Ken McDonald, Tony Mader and Danny Latimer.
Dale Whitehead had wondered on one of this threads where some of those folks were... and there's (some of) his answer! One sad note though, Mike Dobson died back in the late 80's, and accidental drowning on the Bay of Quinte.
But back to the reunions! After 30+ years it was an absolute blast to see each other again. Some folks hadn't changed and some (close) friends I didn't recognize till they laughed or spoke (weird huh).
Mike Parberry and Steve "Blund" Peckitt are still out west (Ft McMurray and Edmonton respectively)
But most of the rest of us live between Trenton and Ottawa.
Future get togethers will occur on regular basis somewhere between these two places. (Likely Kingston).
So if your interested in hoisting a few with some old friends and aquaintances and rollin' some memories out of the closet get onto facebook and contact Rick Petit or myself.
All the best to all of you!

I too was there from the very first. Yes the Trenton High Days three to a locker or was it four can't remember. Those late bus rides home on friday night to Batawa. Then the new school, no walls boy was that cool and the smoking court not that I smoked but the fact that we even had one wow. Anyway doesn't seem so long ago until I look at my kids who are 24, 20 and 18. Then I think wow it has been longer than it feels.

Someone was looking for Paul Groves. I think he died around 1990 in a car accident near Frankford.
