SUMMERTIME!!!!!

Well....Some of the RSVPs are starting to roll in now. As of this moment, we have 28 people attending including spouses and you can see who is able to attend or not on the left. If you see classmates around, PLEASE tell them to let us know if they are coming or not. I've been able to get to quite a few. I'm not sure if Tammy D., Dawn D., Peggy Carlisle, Billy Chant, Lauren Hamilton, Joe Parrow, Percilla, or Mike Stephenson have heard that we are having a reunion. I know that everyone else has heard about it even though they may not have rsvp'd yet. If you see these people please let them know OR give me a call and I will get in touch with them. Kim really needs numbers to give to Cav's.

My cell is (315) 771-0060.

Kim took care of the paperwork so we could have a tour of the school before we go to the Pavilion for a family picnic. That ought to be interesting! It has changed a lot and I haven't been in there since my brother, Steven, graduated. (He was in kindergarten when we graduated High School and just turned 26.)----so it has been a while!

Kim and I got the invites out to the faculty. You may be asking, "Why did they send invites to the faculty and not to the classmates?" The answer is two-fold...1) They are easy to find 2) Our classmates know it is our 20th if they choose to seek it out...our teachers do not. :-) I'm sure you can plan on seeing the Lavarnways and Dobbins at the very least. lol Hopefully NANA REED, our graduation speaker, will make an appearance too. Around 40 invites went out from elementary...to high school. We also invited Mr. Amato and Mr. McClennan.

We are excited that Kerri Hunneyman will be on location as our photographer. She is going to take some class shots at the school, the pavilion, and the legion. She will also do family photos and group shots. You can purchase some amazing packages from her...she has made several kinds up. The most expensive is $50...but there are a ton of pics in it. The package prices go down from there. That is a great deal! ---So if it is time for a family photo with a picturesque background...you are in luck! She will also be making a candid cd of the nighttime fun...and that will be for sale for $15. She will accept payment on reunion day...so plan ahead if you are interested.

We did create this blog, put an ad in the TI SUN, put it on ABAY.com, as well as NEWZJUNKY. We have also spread the word around like crazy and contacted many though websites such as facebook. Like I said above....I'm positive that everyone in our class has heard about this with the exception of the people mentioned above. Hopefully, people understand that this was simply more feasible with two people working on it 3 1/2 hours away from each other.

We would REALLY like around 45-50 signed up to cover the costs of the band, apps, and legion donation....so we have a little way to go. MORE IMPORTANTLY, we would just like to be all together again.

So far....the person traveling the furthest to be here for the reunion is Keith Hillemeyer! He is coming with his wife from Oklahoma! We need to get a boat to take them on a tour of the river!

Please tell the people you bump into to RSVP as soon as possible!!! Thanks for your help.

See you all soon!!!!
