"We recall an intense American in the person of our late President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Taking cognizance of our own youth, we regard him significantly as the champion of youth.

    In much of his endeavor, he evinced a deep interest and concern for the young; this he explicitly set forth in his creation of the Peace Corps, in his efforts toward bettering excellence, in his vision of youth as future leaders in government and world affairs and in his cultural outlook for all.

    Most compelling was the example of his living, the spirit he infused into the young, epitomized so well in his memorable words, 'Ask not what your county can do for you but what you can do for your county.'

    We, the youth of Garrigan High School, are proud to dedicate the 1964 GARRIGOLD to the memory of John Fitzgerald Kennedy."
1964 GARRIGOLD

 

     The physics class intently watches as a classmate tries to make a pin float.

 

    Father Ries gives his class a Christmas blessing in English instead of Latin which is new now that Vatican II has changed Church traditions.

 

    The French class received brand-new technology this year, tape recorders. These tape recorders helped the French students become more proficient in the romantic language.

 

    The musical this year was Oklahoma. The Garrigan chorus and actors did a wonderful job of bringing the western atmosphere and beautiful story to life.

 

    Garrigan started its first boy's golf team this year. They were far from a perfect season, but they showed a great deal of promise for future years.

 

    Mary Ann Goetz was a senior this year and graduated with the class of 1964. Today, in 2002, she works in Garrigan's Development Office. She is married to Garrigan's superintendent, Mr. Eugene Meister, and all of her children are alumni of Garrigan.
