The idea for the Pocahontas High School Indians Website was born early in the year of 2005.  Actually, we weren’t a website then.  We were just one page that was part of another website.  That website was a store that sold Party Supplies and was kind enough to dedicate one page to us so that we could post information and details for the upcoming Pocahontas High School Grand Reunion 2005.

Our website – www.pocahontas-high-school-indians.com – was born in the fall of 2005 and started as just a few pages dedicated to the information and memories, and a few pictures, of the Grand Reunion 2005.

My how we have grown!
