WWII PLAQUE MOVED TO VA HOSPITAL
 I wanted to pass along some info to you about the World War II plaque that was
at West End High School. Last year the Ensley High Class of '61 took our WW II
Plaque from the high school to save it from being lost if the school was
demolished. We conducted a search to find a suitable place to have the plaque
displayed and finally reached an agreement with the VA Hospital in
Birmingham. Word got out that the VA hospital would display the plaque from
Ensley, so Ed Webb and a group from West End got their plaque and it will also
be displayed at the VA Hospital. The plaques were originally placed in the
schools to honor alumni killed while serving in the armed forces during World
War II. On July 26, 9-11am there will be a viewing of the two plaques in the
main lobby of the VA Hospital on 8th Avenue South. -

HAVE FUN WITH THE "MAGIC CITY BOPPERS"
The
Magic City Boppers were formed in 1990 to preserve the "The Bop" that we grew up
with and has become a way to "reclaim" our youth. A weekly dance is held every
Thurs. night at Gabriel's on Lorna Road, from 7pm 'til 10pm. A monthly party is
held on a Saturday night each month at Firefighter's Hall on Oxmoor Circle in
B'ham. In addition, every year since its formation, The Magic City Boppers have
a "Hang-Out Weekend" at Panama City Beach in May. For details, visit
