Dear Classmates,
We currently have 77 for Friday and 88 for Saturday.
Unfortunately, due to tickets not being purchased for 97 additional numeric responses to the survey question; "Including you, how many from your family (or other guests) will be attending the main reunion event the evening of 10/23?" we will need to increase ticket prices later today. If you have not already, you can purchase your tickets at https://sites.google.com/view/chs81reunion/home. You can also signup for water taxi rides for Friday, hotel room blocks, and extra reunion activities via this website. If you need financial assistance to be able to attend, please contact Donna Harris regarding a GoFundMe setup for this purpose.
Thanks all who have been contributing towards making our 40-year reunion successful. Special thanks to Audean Ross, Barbara Doyle Burruezo, Donna Harris, Ginger Futch, Greg Bowlus, Haydee Davidson, Lila Ceely, and Renee Garcia who have been regularly attending the posted webinar meetings and coordinating details behind-the-scenes via email. Special thanks again to all who were willing to financially risk contributing to the ~$10,000 upfront deposits required for the other venues we considered, as we would have each taken significant losses.
To keep this positive, if you accidentally responded with a non-zero numeric value to the survey question; "Including you, how many from your family (or other guests) will be attending the main reunion event the evening of 10/23?" (causing our venue dilemma), we still love you, but please help us by finding missing classmates to replace you in the headcount!!! I will try to post an updated list later today.
Looking forward to seeing everyone who can attend!!!
Erik
