Coach Lou Fogle
Coach Fogle has been selected for induction into the Franklin High School Hall of Fame. The mission of the hall of fame is to honor those groups or individuals whose actions or achievements bring honor and distinction to the heritage of the high school in four categories - professional achievement, athletics, service and lifetime recognition.
Lou Fogle, Class of 1960, for athletics - Football stand-out at Franklin High School and Clemson University and a successful high school coach in the Carolinas. The Franklin school district retired Fogle's "41" football jersey in 2008 and placed Fogle in the elite company of other FHS football standouts Nate Byham (20), Bay Lawrence (21), Red Law (22) and Ted Marchibroda (23).
He will be inducted into the hall of fame at a ceremony and banquet that will be held Oct. 4.
He will join distinguished Franklin High School English teacher Margaret Feldman, football greats Ted Marchibroda and Bay Lawrence, longtime sports editor of The News-Herald Jack Mays and U.S. Olympic coach Randall Lawrence Wilber, all members of the inaugural hall of fame class inducted last fall.
To be eligible for selection, FHS grads must have graduated at least 10 years prior to nomination. Teachers and coaches are eligible five years after retirement. Posthumous selections may be made annually.
The selection committee considers the following: actions that demonstrate outstanding character; outstanding citizenship that has received international, national or local recognition; leadership that can inspire students in the pursuit of excellence; and accomplishments or leadership that are considered outstanding or exceptional.

Lee Edwards Class of 1952 60th Class Reunion
Hey Classmate,
Do you remember when...
We marched in our cap and gown?
My, wasn't the feeling grand?
Do you remember? - If you remember... then:
Let's get together and walk down memory lane again while we still can.
Plans are being made for a 60th class reunion this June 22nd and 23rd. Please mark these dates on your calendar and give some serious thought to joining us at our old stomping grounds.
You will be receiving more information in the next few weeks and will be able to choose the events that best fit your schedule. We are hoping to see many of you and have a wonderful time reminiscing old times and sharing the new.
If your are aware of any additional classmates that we have been unable to locate, and if you know their latest email or mailing addresses,
please email cbar@charter.net
or call me at 828-505-1495.
Looking forward to seeing you,
Carolyn Huff Barkocy
for the Class of '52 Planning Committee

Yearbook Name Search
We now have the yearbook search feature. Right now, it is only for the Class of 1970, 1971, 1972 and 1973 yearbooks. Once you choose the school and year, enter a first and last or just a first or just a last name, then click on the Search button. You may use a partial of a first or last name. If we find any classmate that matches your search criteria, you will see a page of thumb names that you can click on. In the title of each page at the bottom, will be the full name of the classmate. If you see only the cover of the yearbook, this means that your search didn't find anyone with the name criteria.
If you find any names that we have mispelled, please let us know, as we may not catch any mis-spellings from the OCR scanning of the yearbook page images. This project will be a long running project, as there are 121 yearbooks with 12,509 pages to scan and create the indices.

Asheville Tourist Invitation To Host Picnics For Class Reunions
Hello,
My name is Matt Riley and I am a Group Sales Representative for the Asheville Tourists Baseball Team. We have been lucky enough to host the Reunions for the Classes of 1960 and 1961 from Lee Edwards High School here at the ballpark. I've been trying to track down a contact for the 1962 Class or even the 1952 Class to see if they would be interested in having something similar here as well, but I haven't had any luck. I'm not sure if you would be able to help me or not but I figured it would be worth a shot. If you have any contact information or a person I can contact for either class I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks very much.
Here are some PDF files with more details:

The Alumni Center Report Of Activities 2011
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Attached for your information is the latest "Report of Activities" of The Alumni Center of Asheville City Schools. It covers the period beginning January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011. None of the accomplishments would have been possible without the tireless efforts of our fellow volunteers as acknowledged in the Report. We also have great plans for the future!
We greatly appreciate the support of the Board of Education, Administration, Asheville High School and, of course, our alumni and contributors.
Please let us know if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Marcia & Tim Amos
Volunteers

Asheville High and Lee Edwards High School Yearbooks
We completed the yearbook scanning project and posted all of the yearbooks from the Class of 1918 to the Class of 2009. We believe that the yearbooks will provide many years of enjoyment by former students, families, friends, historians, etc. We also have some of the Stephens-Lee High School, David Millard Junior High, South French Broad Junior High, and Hall Fletcher Middle school yearbooks scanned and posted online.
We ask any former student or family member that has any of the missing years in the Junior High and Middle schools that want to donate or loan to be scanned into our Alumni Center's web site, please contact us at TheAlumniCenter@gmail.com or webmaster@TheAlumniCenter.com.
This project consists of 121 yearbooks with 12,509 pages scanned, processed and uploaded to our web site. We started this project on 3 August 2009 and completed it 1 September 2011, excluding any future donated/loaned and new classes.
