it's all about "the buzz"
~ creating a buzz around our very own website that is!
in between reunions, classmates continually stop me and ask about "the next one". this is what keeps it alive! some classmates even ask if there is anything they can do to help. the reunion committee is made up of classmates willing to give of themselves in some way. we all have something to offer, whether it be time, good ideas, organizational or technical skills, sales ability or even a musical talent.
after all of these years, each reunion brings to the forefront a new core group of people. a crew willing to make this the funnest , and the most special of events. those that have helped in the past know what it takes. i am still very greatful to paula talbot-decoste for over two decades of service to our class. she has given her undivided attention in monitoring our class. one way that paula made it special was to send a card to the families of any class member that had passed on.
contact us if you know want to do something special for your classmates. get involved if you never have, you will find it a rewarding experience on many levels.
a successful first reunion crew meeting was held on, 3/21/06, at friendly's restuaurant. next meeting will soon be announced. special thanks to linda and bob for stoking this year's party. the outcome was that we need to get buzzin'.
