On March 2, 2023, members and friends of our our A H Parker 1961 Class will host a tour that will include Tel Aviv, Israel and Cairo, Egypt. AAA Alabama travel agency has been appointed to facilitate and research costs, and the requirements. AAA Alabama was selected because of the volatile financial conditions that exist around the world. The month of March is selected because you do not want to risk a dust storm and be trapped in your hotel during our tour period, and the temperature is very critical because of our age. The initial cost of the tour will be posted on our Website before May 31, 2022 to lock-in the price and payment arrangements, which will be managed by AAA Alabama. The itenerary will be posted on a special Webpage that will require logging onto the Website to review detailed information. The cost of the Air Fare can not be determined until Six (6) months before the actual travel date, and AAA Alabama will manage the specific travel arrangements for each participant. Each participant or subgroup will depart from the closest International airport near their communities, and we will all arrive in Tel Aviv, Israel within the same time frame, and be escorted to our hotel. We will be assigned a tour guide who will travel with us during our tour. Our Website will be updated as more information becomes available.
Our 1961 Web Site was created to memorialize the fallen in our "In Memory" that welcomes your comments, pictures, and updates. Two Hundred Seventy Nine (279) of our known Classmates have been entered into "IN MEMORY" on our 1961 Website. The 1950 Census is available on-line and it is very helpful in updating and maintaining information. We have made substantial progress in installing a yearbook picture for everyone as our search for new information continues..
May 31, 1961 is the historic date that we graduated from A H Parker High School, and May 31, 2021 represents our 60th Anniversary date. Covid-19 has had the last word on all organizations and longterm planning. There are still a few bumps and hurdles that we must overcome in the consideration of safely organizing large events. It is our hope that by the last quarter of 2022 a healthy landscape will be coming into view.
Our Password protected Picture Gallery has more than 3000 pictures from the year 1887 through 2022 that includes the origins of A H Parker High School. Documents stored on our Web Site are safe from fires, floods and other disasters that may threaten our own personal treasures. Security provisions and password protection are an integral part of our operations on our A. H. Parker High 1961 Web Site.
