Class of 1950
Bedford friends get back together
U
p to 45 members of the 1950 Grade 12 graduating classes at Bedford Road Collegiate are returning to Saskatoon for trips down memory lane June 28-29. For most graduates, there is a common theme of Bedford Road Collegiate being a stepping stone to life-long success and a good cause to celebrate. The school was one of four collegiates at the time, with the others being Nutana, City Park and Tech. “Bedford Road had a huge impact on what I became in life,” said Al Anderson, who at the age of 21 became an independent businessman and built a sporting goods empire which still exists People today under the name of Al Anderson’s Source for Sports. “I played basketball, I sang and I was involved. I always remembered the school song, with that zip in the last line about The Spirit of Bedford Road. I was thankful that I caught a piece of that spirit. We learned to face challenges, issues and sometimes a crisis. We learned to point ourselves in the right direction,” Anderson said. Henrietta Goplen played basketball and got deeply hooked on speedskating as a competitor, coach, administrator, historian and mother of Gary and Gordon, who competed internationally. “I came out of the MacKay family, where four brothers went to Bedford Road before me, and that was a different challenge,” she said. “We lived in a time when our parents, just coming off Depression days, wanted a good education for their children. It wasn’t a matter of whether we wanted it or not, it was a matter of needing it. We developed a faith in our teachers, who were so anxious for the students to do well and they contributed to our personal development as much as they did to our education.”
