Chances are quite good that you still remember your high school graduation. That was a day you looked forward to for some time, the day you finally felt ‘grown up’. Well, that day is fast approaching for seniors in our area and we’d like to acknowledge their special day and their accomplishments here in the pages of Dolphin Talk.

If you, your child or grandchild will be graduating, please send us a photo along with some information (city of residence, parents, special interests or honors in school, etc.) so that we can honor them in an upcoming addition.

We’d like to include college and trade school graduates as well. Deadline to receive information is June 3. We hope to hear from you:
