Bristol Tennessee City Schools would like to extend a heartfelt "thank you" to the Class of 1979 for their generous donation of $4,579 towards the renovations of the Historic Stone Castle. Their support is invaluable in preserving this iconic landmark for future generations.

“After seeing the challenges other Tennessee High classes have made, the Class of ’79 wanted to participate and contribute to the Stone Castle renovations," said Lori Worley, Class of '79 member. "Our class has always been very tight knit. A big reason for that closeness is that we had such an awesome high school experience and enjoyed so many wonderful moments in the Castle. Growing up, it was just a magical place for us, and we treasure those memories to this day. We want the Castle to be around for many more generations of Vikings and hope other classes will also donate to its upkeep and renovations.”
