​Shaker Nation Reunion 2024

 

​

Alumni of Saltville High School and R. B. Worthy High School, ​Saltville, Virginia

​Where it will always be "Home of the Shakers"

If you have any memorabilia you would like to share with others at the next reunion, please contact Tina and Randy. We are always interested in things to put on display, and we would especially like to have an opportunity to scan any photos you would be willing to share with us.  It is especially helpful if you can do that at least a month in advance so that we have time to scan pictures and return them before the reunion.

The Wall of Honor is maintained on this site and will continue to be updated. Email Tina & Randy Surber at shakernation@yahoo.com or post a message via The Shaker Nation Facebook page to report additional names of Shakers who are deceased and who are not already listed. 

Smyth County Public Library/Library of Virginia has digitized 1966, 1968, 1969, 1970, and 1971 editions of the Choo Choo.  View them by simply clicking on the year above; the yearbook will load in a new window.

The Shaker Nation All-Class Reunion is an annual event held on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend since 2010.  

If you ever attended or worked at Saltville HS, R. B. Worthy HS, Saltville Elementary or Allison Gap Elementary School,

you are a Shaker and this reunion is for YOU!  

All Shakers and their spouses are welcome, regardless of graduation status. 


The R. B. Worthy High School Class of 1969 has school spirit like few others. They have showed up at Shaker Nation Reunions in force and have won the Spirit Stick for seven consecutive years!
