    Fellow Classmates
    Youtube Videos Taken at Sachem High School

    Same Building! Same rooms, halls, and auditorium. Different students! I enjoyed seeing the auditorium and hallways! 
    You were the actors, and I was the guy that controlled the lighting for a few of the plays at Sachem; I did feel some connectivity when watching the "Beauty and the Beast video. The videography is great! 

    I got a Feeling:

    Winter at Hollywood Beach Lake Ronkonkoma

    From Hollywood Beach, looking toward St Mary's Church. The lake is frozen and Tony Perna is waxing the blades on his Ice Boat. LOL. The patch of woods in the upper right hand corner of the photo is where another alumni went to sleep after a long night on the town. LOL.



















    Photo of Raynors Park Looking across the road from what we know as Hollywood Beach. Hollywood Beach is currently called Ronkonkoma Beach.


     
     

















    What was at the top of the stairs?




















    Comment From John Hall:
    Hello Ben (and Marie)

    Thank you for the outstanding work you do in keeping the communications going in our Sachem family.  I rarely comment on the blog and I'm not into facebook, but the blog brings back so many memories of the good times growing up.  I graduated academically last in the class of 1961; it was Mr. Sacks and Mr. Bellofatto who guided me in my life.  They were more than teachers; they were my male mentors since I was raised by a divorced mother.  Failing out of Suffolk Community College my first semester they continued to advise me when I was no longer in high school.  Years later I maintained a 4.0 average at the University of Maryland in Heidelberg, Germany campus.  Many of our teachers are gone, but will never forget them and their dedication to their profession.

    Regards John
