What blast to see so many from our class (plus many interesting and great looking spouses)! It WAS quite a bit of work for just the 3 of us (Joan W., Michelle & I ) to pull together but was so worth it, seeing all the reconnections and fun being had by all.
We had about 181 in attendance at the main event. Down a bit from the reunion before (20th). Now there is 4-5 years to find those remaining classmates on the list here and perhaps we'll have better attendance then.
Don't forget to update your own profile when there are changes like moving/address chg., name changes, emails, etc. Most important note: on your 'profile', the default was to keep all your contact information private until or unless you set as 'public' any or all components. That is the only way the other classmates can contact you. Whatever is left as private will only be seen by the website administrator (Michelle) otw.
Thanks to contributions to the website donation box as well a major contribution from Tom Stutz and I believe Joan Weisz too, we have most of the next full year of this website paid for (8/10-8/11). THANK YOU one & all for this as well as making the 30 year reunion such a special time!!!
Oops - hit send before I realized I forgot a few other very important people...
Thank you to Felix for again providing his wonderful Rat Pack show and vocal stylings. Don't forget when in Orlando, to hit Universal Studios -- you just may bump into this 'character'. :)
Also, many, many thanks to the crew who manned the check-in table at the event: Gina Malander, Cary Kapsner Dorn, Sally Pabst Benner, Sharon Mischke Ornquist, Vicki Mohler Hickle, Jeff Johnson, Sabina Ott Ramacker, Colleen Hawkins Carrigan, Doreen Rivet, Ray Cook and last but not least, Jenny Pate Erickson!!!
