Last 9th Grade Bloomer Class: Former Student Needs Your Help Locating a Special Class Pamphlet

Sean Reilly was a student in the last 9th grade class of Bloomer school. During that 9th grade year he moved out of state, and wasn't able to receive a special Class Pamphlet that the final class made themselves. It would mean a great deal to him to have a copy if someone still has one that could be copied for him. Bloomer was his favorite school and those were the best years that he spent there. The class would have been in the 1985 school year (or close to it). Any information you could give would be greatly appreciated. E-mail the alumni association.
