The Cherryville High
School graduating Class of
1960 may have set a record.
Unlike other graduates
who only meet once every
five years, this group of for-
mer students plans events all
year.
“You won’t find us sitting
in our rocking chairs,” says
Dartha Dease Stroupe, the
group leader, and Brenda
Ramsey Belt.
They held their first re-
union five years ago and
then Dartha, of Cherryville,
.and Brenda Belt, of Kings
Mountain, put their heads to- /
gether and the result has
been fun for as many as 50-
60 returning alumni.
‘Members meet once a
month for lunch at Roma
Italian in Cherryville. A 10-
member planning committee
meets once a month for
breakfast at Zippers in Lin-
colnton. In October 50-60
people head for Myrtle
Beach, SC. On the Fourth of
July they gather at First
Union Methodist Church in
Cherryville for a cookout.
The Christmas party was
held recently at First United
Methodist Church in Cher-
ryville to a large crowd.
And the group has
formed its own entertain-
ment group they call Cherry
Pickers. The group includes
Jim and Brenda Belt of.
Kings Mountain, Jerry
Walker, and Dennis and
Diana Rayfield. Jim Belt
says they plan all types of
music, from Beach to Coun-
try, and Dennis Rayfield is
featured on harmonica. Belt
updates a video at each event
and during beach trips they
enjoy the video, games, and
take yearbooks and photo al-
bums to share with friends.

Staying in Touch
CHS Class of ‘60 meets regularly
comprised the Class of 1960.
Each year the group in-
cludes former classmates in
lower grades. Some come
regularly from Mississippi,
Indiana, California and
Hickory, to name a few of
the cities represented in the
reunion group, “Our com-
mittee meets Wednesday to
plan our October reunion
and we are thinking about a
mountain trip,” said Dartha.
Not only does the group
have fun they also donate to
Cherryville Area Ministries
and recently made a $200
donation to the cancer fund.
“We don’t sit down and
get old,” said Dartha, who is
proud of friends who enjoy
getting together and having
fun.
Said Jim Belt, “They
started looking at photo al-
bums the other day and it
took me two hours to finally
get.a picture.”
