Hi fellow alumni. Welcome to the new and improved Knox website. Prepare for a trip down memory lane as the website provides a doorway to all those wonderful memories of Knox Memorial High School. The success of the website will, in a large measure, be determined by your interest and participation. Please encourage as many alumni as possible to sign on and/or to keep their e-mail addresses updated.
Remember the website also provides a "connect" with the present as you may wish to contact past classmates and friends. We encourage you to send us your ideas, articles, announcements, or pictures you feel would be of interest to your fellow alumni. The website is a work in progress. We look forward to its continued growth and development. Enjoy!

We wanted to make everyone aware (and remind those that may have already known) of the wonderful experiences of one of our own, Francis Red Grandy (class of 1940). Here is his website which tells the whole story much better than we can:
Also, you can look for Red driving his “Amphicar” in the Russell Parade on July 31.
Feel free to drop Red a line with any questions or comments you may have: lazyred@tds.net
Sincerely,
The Knox Website Folks

Hello All:
We really hope everyone who attended the Knox Alumni Celebration Banquet had a great time!
Right now we’re looking for donations in the form of pictures or video taken at the event that we can post to the website. In fact, we’re always looking for Knox-related content so please don’t hesitate to send us anything you have as it makes the experience that much more rich for anyone visiting the site in the future.
If you have any pictures to share there are a few different ways to get them to us.
At the moment we have a rudimentary page to upload them directly to the site at the following address:
http://www.knoxmemorialalumni.com/knox-upload
Instructions:
1) Click “Browse” and locate an image on your computer.
2) Select the image and click “Open” and you should see the filename displayed on the screen in bold.
To add more than one image simply click “Browse” again and select another image. Once you click “Open” you should see the second image filename displayed below the first one.
Repeat these steps until you’ve finished building your list.
3) Finally, click the “Upload” link to the far right (next to ‘Clear List’) and watch the progress bars move. You should see an “Upload Complete” message once your images have been successfully sent.
If possible, send us an email letting us know you’ve sent us something.
Another way to send us pictures is to simply send an email and add the pictures as attachments.
Even better, if you have video to share please contact us by email so we can figure out the best way to procure the files and share them on the website!
Many thanks in advance to anyone who can contribute. It takes a village.
If you have any questions or concerns just reply to this email and we’ll get right back to you.
Thanks!
The Board of Directors is excited to announce a change in the format of the program from the traditional banquet-style reunion to a more casual, open house-type of celebration. Invitations were mailed at the beginning of June. Please contact us if you did not receive one and would like to attend.
