Hello you all

[monterey1967]

I just joined the forum today, enjoyed reading a few of the threads, mostly the one's talking about Tulsa in the 50s & 60s. I went to Central High in the mid-60s, worked in Tulsa a few years and moved away until few years ago and moved back.  I will be posting every now & then if i can add something of interest. Later, Ron

Good to have you. Central High School is a lot different now than it was then. At least it's still around.

Central was my home in the late 60's as well. People can't believe it when I tell them we had nearly 3000 students in that building! Graduated some of the best carpenters, plumbers, electricians and a few artists and lawyers the city ever saw.
