For years spammers have been trying to gain access to this website. There have been thousands of failed attempts of spambots trying to either register at the site or spam any of the forms on the site. Up until now, the built-in protections have worked.

We had our first instance of a spammer actually going to the trouble of writing a program or manually contacting a large number of alumni, which seems like a lot of work for 1850 possible customers. For now, I have disabled the contact form until I find a better solution.

Thanks to everyone who alerted me to the spam emails they received.

I will be closely monitoring the website for more trouble. I will also likely take a look at adding more safeguards to the email form. Thanks for your patience.

The Alumni Association of Ontario High School & the Wayne Central School District is pleased to announce its annual dinner meeting scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2009. This event is open to anyone who graduated from those schools – regardless of the year. The cost this year is $8 per person, or a $60 lifetime membership which would cover the admission this year for all the alumni in your household. We will be meeting at the Lodge at Casey Park 6551 Knickerbocker Rd. in Ontario, starting at noon. There will be a pot luck meal at 1pm. Please bring a dish to pass and your own table setting. Drinks, cups and napkins will be provided. As always (since 1917), the “brown derby” will go to the graduating class with the most attendees, so contact old classmates & encourage them to help you take the derby home! Also, each year the Association presents a gift to the school and/or the town. If you’re unable to attend this year, please send in $6 annual dues (or lifetime dues) and register so you’ll be sure to get the information about next year’s event. Bring your pictures, and join us for an afternoon of warm memories.
Questions or concerns may be directed to: Chris Wacenske Bray (’72) 315-524-8829 or via e-mail – using “Alumni Association” in the subject area to: Collinsgrama@rochester.rr.com

If you have visited the new Photo Albums page, you may have wondered if there was a convenient way to get some of your photos easily uploaded. Now there is. OK, maybe fairly convenient. If you go to this page and follow the directions given, you should be able to upload multiple photos at one time. Logging in is a requirement, otherwise bad people will do bad things. The log in will appear automatically if you are not logged in, and will bring you right to the page once logged in.

This isn’t used for your Bio, though it might be one day. To upload photos to your Bio, continue to use the Upload Photo to Your Bio link.

This new feature is for uploading a group of pictures that will reside in a photo album. This would be a photo album that would appeal to a number of Wayne Alumni. Maybe photos from a Class Reunion, or from the back in school days, etc.

A key element of this capability is naming the Photo Album such that the description will impart enough information that a user can decide to view it. Class year is a good identifier. Or an event name. The only other criteria is that it be a unique name. Right now, this is not checked, so it would be good to add something to the Album Name if it might be a name someone else might choose. Maybe add your initials. Maximum of 100 photos per upload. If you have more, make more than 1 album.

Also on that page, I have instructions on how to resize photos to speed up upload time and viewing time. This is very quick and easy on Windows with a small utility from Microsoft.

You can also access the page using the Upload Photos to an Album link in the Site Menu.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Some photos from the Class of 69 Reunion. I used the new Photo Album capability, now with easier navigation. No cations yet, hopefully soon.

Thanks to Mindy Bell Pellegrino and Ed Doyle.

Dear Classmate of 1977

Due to lack of responses to a summer get together for our 50th birthday party, I have canceled the festivities.
Please keep your email address active and correct for future happenings. I am sorry for this inconvenience and appreciate the support over the years.

The 2009 Eagle is out and here is a scan of the cover.

I bet those rocks look familiar to many of you.

Thanks to Cynthia Kolacki from the Wayne Staff.

Well its been a few months since the user photo upload feature was added, and though there have been a number of people who have taken advantage of it, it has been at a fairly low rate.

Yes, you can only upload one-at-a-time presently, so this wouldn’t be ideal for a storage area for all your photos, but there is no problem if people upload a couple handfuls of photos.

Yes, you must login first (otherwise bad things will happen), but it is good incentive to finally update your email and get a password if you never have had one.

So I have 11 up there. Who will be the first to surpass me?

The Class of 74 is looking for help locating these classmates:

• Sue Forman
• Deborah Marshall (Berg)
• Lauretta Hutchins (Piccone)
• Diane Bileck (Frechecte)
• Jacqueline Collins
• Wayne Marsden
• Steve Palmer
• Jim Steamer
• James Thornton
• Kathy Cole

Contact me if you can help with any of these missing classmates (see below).

Also, were having a bonfire on Friday night August 7th. We’d like to invite anyone from the era to attend (71-77). There will be a minimal charge for refreshments (soft) and snacks. BYOB if inclined and a designated driver.

Email me if you are interested at bdonova1@rochester.rr.com.

We’d also like to invite any friends from the Classes of 1973 and 1975 to our reunion dinner on Aug. 8th. The more the merrier. Contact bdonova1@rochester.rr.com for info.
