Walker Family Photo Album: PhotoPages Online HOW WEO GOT STARTED In January of 2001, Kaye Tyler and I decided to promote a class reunion for the West End High School graduates of 1959 through 1963. We put together a committee and began planning for a reunion on October 6th. We decided that a web site would be the easiest way to keep classmates updated on reunion plans. The site went live on February 25, 2001. As word spread, emails and photos poured in and new feature pages were added. By week 28, we had over 20,000 hits. We have since held 4 class reunions and 5 class picnics. * In 2004, the Classmates.com marketing director informed me that WEO was the largest dedicated school reunion web site they have seen and was very likely the largest in the world. WEO has since more than doubled in size, so the same probably holds true today. WEB SITE RENDERING West End Online was built in 2001 using Microsoft Frontpage, which was introduced before the advent of tablets or smartphones. Frontpage coding enables pages to render properly on desktop monitors and laptop computers. If you browse WEO on a smart device, you may need to scroll in to enlarge text and photos for viewing (not ideal, but it suffices). To correct this, I would have to rebuild WEO from the ground up using more current software. Needless to say, with over 400 pages, this would be a daunting task. PRIVACY STATEMENT West End Online has only one purpose, which is to bring WEHS classmates together and promote reunion events. Information submitted will not be shared with anyone, but we can't prevent site visitors from copying information, photos or email addresses. West End Online is wholly owned and operated by me and has no outside affiliations whatsoever. - Cliff Walker - Class of '61 NO FORWARDING E-MAILS Please do not email or forward jokes, stories, virus warnings or such as I am in touch with so many classmates that I would be swamped. If you typically forward to everyone in your address book, please remove our email address, then come to this site and email me from here. We also request that you not "reply to all" to our emails or use information at West End Online for any purpose outside of the intent of this web site.

KEEP US UPDATED Our final effort to update the entire WEHS database was in early 2015, prior to our last class reunion party. The only updates since have been from classmates notifying us of changes. Since going online in 2001 we have lost track of over 125 classmates, so be sure to keep us posted if your info changes, especially email. YOUR INFO AT WEO Email addresses for hundreds of classmates are posted on our Email Friends pages (see the Friends section in the left yellow border). For classmates that we don't have an email for, their phone number may be posted at the Call Friends page. If you prefer to have your contact information removed, please email and I will delete it within a few days. |
