Lead Summary
By
Richard Edwards-
Alumni and guests recently attended the annual Samantha Penn Township School reunion.
On Sept. 15 at the Samantha Friends Church, after a delicious carry-in meal, 19 alumni and 10 guests were present to hear a story Neil Milner had sent about his dad, Arthur Milner.
Art Milner was not only the superintendent of the Samantha School back when there were all 12 grades, but he was also the girls basketball coach. As a coach, he let his girls wear shorts instead of bloomers, which was frowned upon until the girls won their tournament.

Norma Gray Edwards — filling in for Sheila Caldwell Parshall, who was recovering from an auto accident — also told of alumni who could not attend but wanted to give their greetings.
Alumni then shared their life stories since their Samantha school days.
Next year’s reunion will be Sept. 13, 2020 at 1 p.m. at the Samantha Friends Church.
