The Austin High School Class of 1949 held its 55th Year Reunion on Friday April 30, 2004 at the Doubletree Hotel in Austin, Texas.  A "South of Texas Border Dinner" was served, followed by a program that included a reading by Bob Armstrong, a slide show by Bob Tieman, and songs by Barbara and Joe Miles.  The Reunion continued on Saturday May 1, 2004 with a Catfish Lunch at the Manchaca Fire Hall.  Everyone had a wonderful time visiting with old friends and renewing acquaintances that may have been lost for over 50 years!

We have more than 200 pictures posted on this web site for the enjoyment of attendees as well as classmates unable to attend.  Scroll down to see how Friday evening unfolded, and click on a link at the top or bottom of this page to view more pictures.
