Hunter Huss High alum Brad Huss’s heart sank when he read The Gazette online Wednesday.

The top story discussed how vandals had caused $5,000 worth of damage to his alma mater.

Huss decided that he would get the word out about the damage and try to help the school pay for the damages.

Huss owns hunterhusshuskies.com, a Web site dedicated to keep alumni informed and help them stay in touch. He set up an account where people can donate money. When Huss gets a sizable amount, he’ll present the school with a check.

“There’s a lot of heritage, a lot of pride in that school,” Huss said.

In the past the Web site has generated a lot of traffic.

He hopes that this issue will garner the attention of those willing to open up their pocketbook.

“Really the important issue is the money has to be paid,” Huss said.

To make a donation, go to www.hunterhusshuskies.com and click on the “donate” logo. Donations can be made with a credit card through a secure Pay Pal site. Huss will not see any financial information from those making donations.

Reportedly, it may take up to $5,000 dollars to make appropriate repairs and fix damages to the school property.

In efforts to assist the school and Gaston County School System, a special fund account is setup to accept your money via PayPal. It would be incredible to know that the community, students, parents and HHHS alumni raised enough funds to “fight back” against these horrible vandals.

In case you have not heard, the GastonGazette.com website has an article in that mentions Hunter Huss has experienced some vandalism over the weekend. Apparently there were some very vulgar and crude language spray painted on the football stadium facilities that were first seen by 6 and 7-year-olds playing Optimist Football.

Death of a Classmate

Danny’s News and Views
Danny McBee, Class of 1966

Christmas 2008: This was the 59th Christmas I have celebrated. I cannot remember the first three or four. However, I can remember the ones after that with clarity. The fun of watching my mother Dorothy “Dot” Dedmond McBee make all of the Christmas displays by hand and all of her gifts by her own hand. She would make cardboard houses with cutout windows. She would make a chimney and put shutters on the boxes. She would put lights inside the houses She would put little people and beds in the houses too. She would put fake snow around the base of the houses. She would also put glitter on the houses and paint the top of the house white. She would have me [after I got a little older] or one of my brothers to go cut her down a tree. The tree was always good enough. She never sent us back out to cut another. She made do with the tree we brought. We always put a lot of thought into it. We didn’t have fraisure furs. We would pick one of the green Christmas trees out of the woods behind Winget Circle in South Gastonia. Mom would also make popcorn strings to wrap around the tree. My favorite was her decorations. She would make many of them. They became traditional as she used many of them year after year. My mother wasn’t an artist but she was very artistic. She put a lot of thought and detail into these Christmas scenes. She loved what she was doing. She made Christmas special. She was very talented with her hands. She would knit and chrochet her gifts to family and friends. She loved Christmas. She lived a quiet life. She lived for God. She lived for her children. She lived for her friends. She lived for all her loved ones. She died in 1986. I will never forget Christmas in the McBee house with my mom. I will always be thankful for my Christmas memories. I will always be thankful to God for giving us His Son. [Danny A. McBee, Class of 1966].

Summer has passed us by. The leaves began to turn very early because of the lack of rain we had this summer. The changing of the leaves is very significant in the south. It represents the changing of the season. It also represents that football is getting into full swing. The Huskies have started out very slowly this year. Our record is 1 win and 2 losses as of September 8, 2007. We lost our 3rd game of the season to East Burke 42 to 25. The Gaston Gazette said it all with it’s article in the sports section, page 4C entitled “Huskies can’t handle Cavs’ run game”. The East Burke team ran for 452 yards against our Huskies. Our team will do better. Remember our song we always sang? “We are the Huskies. Mighty, Mighty Huskies. Everywhere we go. People want to know. Who we are. So we tell them. We are the Huskies. Mighty, Mighty Huskies.” Look out for the Huskies.
