Hale Alumni Foundation
12/5/22 - On December 1st, the Nathan Hale Alumni
Foundation met to hear a proposal from the Class of

Rangers walk for life!
10/4/22 - Rangers and Angels! Remember Walk for
Mankind? We are starting a Rangers Walk For Life,
which starts Sat, Oct 15th, at 9am at LaFortune
Park. We'll begin in the main parking lot on
Yale Ave. As we age, our health risk factors
increase. Let's avert, stall or improve these risk
factors by walking!
Stacy Huggins Boyd has accepted the challenge to
lead this important endeavor. Our walking
locations will change over time. So get your
tennis shoes out of your closet and onto your feet!
Bring a spouse, buddy, Ranger or Angel. We can
enjoy a cup of coffee, lively chat and read the
paper afterwards across the street at Starbucks.
See you all on Oct 15th at 9am!
New photos and football
videos added!
9/27/22 - We finally updated our photo gallery and

First 50th reunion event
for Nathan Hale class of 1975 a "Homerun"!
9/20/22 - For the first time, Bears, Bobcats, and
Oilers became Rangers. We decided to celebrate that
moment in time to begin our 50th reunion celebration
party with our first E.P.I.C. event at a Drillers
baseball game. With plenty of hot dogs and
fireworks, everyone had a great time!

Announcing our first Rangers
For Life Event THIS September 18th, 2022!
8/23/22 - Join us to watch the final home game of
the Tulsa Drillers and enjoy a meal with old
friends. Why are we celebrating three years early?
Because 50 years ago this fall, Bears, Bobcats, and
Oilers became Rangers, and that is worth throwing a
party over.
You don’t have to love baseball to come and have a
good time. If you have never been to a reunion
event, this is the time to reconnect. The price per
person is $25.
50th Reunion planning off to
a great start!
8/5/22 - Planning for our 50th class reunion has
already begun with the appointment of Mark Brooks as
the new Chairman for our 50th Reunion Committee.
Although we missed our 45th Reunion due to Covid, we
will be making up for it in spades this time around
by having many more events leading up to our 50th
Reunion in June, 2025. Our working theme will be "Rangers
For Life!", rebuilding bonds that last a
lifetime.

35-Year Reunion Recap
Our 2010 Reunion was
held on Saturday, June 19th, 2010. Attendance
was well over 100 people for the evening event,
which was not bad for what many considered an "odd
year" (i.e. not a 10, 20, 30 year reunion). We
had a so-so turnout on the golf scramble but a very
good turnout for the Tour of Nathan Hale - probably
our best yet. We also had a large number of
first-time reunion attendees this time around. An informal, last-minute lunch
was arranged at Coney Islander which many people attended. We made a little money on
this reunion, which all goes back into the
kitty for next time. Who knows, by the time
our 50th rolls around we may all get a "freebie".

35th Class Reunion is Just
Around the Corner!
Get ready,
Rangers of '75! Our 35th class reunion is just
around the corner and it promises to be our best reunion
ever! The 2010 Class of '75 Reunion Committee
has been busy planning the event, which will be held
Sat., June 19th, with live music by the acclaimed
Pam Van Dyke Crosby Jazz Quartet! Crosby, who
is considered one of Tulsa’s music treasures, will
present special musical arrangements in her own
swinging style. She will be accompanied by a jazz
trio of top-notch jazz musicians, including pianist
Scott McQuade, bassist Bill Crosby, and drummer
Anthony Yohe.
The venue for this year's reunion will be the
Stokely Event Center in Tulsa. Stokely's
was chosen for its nostalgic atmosphere and spacious
hall filled with neon lights, free games like
skeeball, shuffleboard, and pinball, and a fun
outdoor area where we can all mingle after dinner
and listen to live jazz music.
The food will be catered by Zios Italian Kitchen,
rated one of Tulsa's best.
We will have a cash bar with plenty of beer, wine,
and four different frozen drinks to choose from.
We put a priority on keeping ticket prices low for
this year's reunion by planning the event ourselves
rather than hiring an expensive reunion planner.
As a result, ticket prices for this reunion were
slashed by over half from our last reunion. We
also looked to be creative and add a lot more fun to
the event itself. We think we've accomplished
both!
