This gift will be limited to the first 8 classmates through the door on Saturday night. So register now and arrive early to receive this rollicking adventure of a young man coming of age. It's fictional, but several of the characters are based on real life classmates and teachers from Blair. See if you can guess who they are.
FRIDAY NIGHT RECONNECTION (7 - 9:30)
On Friday night, we will kick off the weekend with an informal get together of old friends at Natucket's Reef in the Traville Gateway Shopping Center (9755 Traville Gateway Drive, Rockville, MD 20850). This will be a pay as you go event. Please register separately if you plan on attending. We will have our own private room for this event, but we have limited space, so we must cut off registration after the first 60 people. So register now and don't be disappointed if you wait until the last minute.
SUNDAY FAREWELL BRUNCH (10:30 - 1)
On Sunday morning, we will conclude this amazing weekend with an all included brunch, again at Nantucket's Reef (9755 Traville Gateway Drive, Rockville, MD 20850). The cost is $25 per person (including tax and gratuity) and includes appetizers, entree, coffee, tea, and water. Alcoholic beverages are extra. Money will be collected at the brunch. Registration again will be limited to first 60 who sign up.
FRIDAY MORNING HIKE ON THE SLIGO CREEK TRAIL
For those of you who like a little exercise to counteract all the food you'll be consuming during our Reunion Weekend, we'll start the weekend off with a very informal hike along the Sligo Creek Trail. Wear comfortable shoes and walk as far as you like. The trees will be just coming out, and it will be a great opportunity to get back to nature. "By old Sligo's winding waters, stands Montgomery Blair" and all that. Maybe some of you even remember the rest of the lines of our alma mater. In any event, you don't have to register for this event - just show up in front of the old Blair Fieldhouse next to the football stadium at 11:00 with some comfortable shoes and enjoy the walk.
SATURDAY MORNING TOUR OF OLD AND NEW BLAIRS
Join your classmates for a tour of the orginal Blair campus you've known and loved. The school has been subdivided into a middle school and an elementary school. And then come to Four Corneers to visit the new location of our school, which was completed in 2000. No need to register for this event - just show up at the old Blair and start enjoying. And after visiting the new facility, those who are interested may want to cross the street and have an informal lunch at the world famous Four Corners Pub, formerly the Corner Pub. The old Blair tour will begin at 10:00 followed by the new at 11;30. We have reservations at the Pub for 12:30. Parking for the old Blair tour will be in the Dale Drive lot where the grove used to be and use the entrance adjacent to that lot. Parking at the new Blair is plentiful in the University Boulevard lot. We will be meeting in the Student Activity Center, i.e. the cafeteria, which is located on the end of the building near the firehouse.
