Bust A Move

We’ve got a great DJ lined up for the night. Jim Catalfamo from Digital Sounds has a huge catalog of hits, from the 80s and beyond. After a few drinks you’ll be dancing like it’s 1989! If you’ve got some favorites that you want to hear, let him know, he’ll be taking requests.

The Magnet Man

Get your photo taken by The Magnet Man, and in 9 seconds he’ll print out a picture magnet for you to take home as a keepsake. There will be a photo booth set up where you can pose in front of a green screen, and select your background for the photo. Every person in each shot gets their own copy of the photo magnet, and you can be in as many shots as you like. Since we’ll all be looking our best, this is your chance to get a great picture of you with your spouse, significant other, or closest friends. Recreate your “senior buddy picture” from the yearbook, or do a group shot with your friends and their spouses. No matter how many pictures you have taken, or how many people are in the shot, it’s all free.

Class Performance

Classmates Tom Miller and Joely Schwenk will be performing a short set for us that night, with Tom on the acoustic guitar, and Joely on vocals. They perform locally as a duo, and are known as, “Stretch.” Very cool! We’re really looking forward to hearing them play.

Table Trivia

Be careful who you sit at a table with, they might end up being part of your trivia team! Good news for those of you who can’t forget the 80s; we’re planning to ask you all a few trivia questions, and tables will have come up with answers as a team. Study up on your 80s pop culture, music, news and events!

Classmate Recognition

There are a few special classmates that we want to take the time to recognize during the reunion. What better time to express our appreciation and admiration to those of you who have done some remarkable things over the last 20 years.

Group Photo

Once again, we are planning to get all of the classmates together for one huge group shot. It’s the photo op of the decade! After all, we still look pretty darn good!

And More!

It’s been 10 years since our last reunion, and it could be another 10 before the next one! If you’ve had fun e-mailing classmates or just reading about them, being all together in the same room is going to be way better. We'll also have pictures and memorabilia on display to help stir up some good memories.

So, Who Else is Coming?

The best way to find out who is coming to the reunion is to click on the “classmate profiles” link at the top left corner of the home page. There you’ll see the legend that includes the link, “attending the reunion”. Click on that, and it will list only those who have indicated they are attending the reunion on their profile. If you are not attending, or unsure, please deselect that option on your profile, so that classmates have a good sense of who else will be there.


Ticket Price: $70 per person

includes dinner buffet, vegetable and cheese displays during the reception, 2 hours of unlimited beer, wine and soda, and dessert.

The ticket price also covers all other expenses of the reunion, including a DJ, favors, a reunion booklet, the Web site, postage and printing for a "missing classmates" mailing, hotel service charges and sales tax, name tages, supplies for memorabilia displays, and more.

At last our class has reached this significant milestone and we hope that
you will join us to celebrate by reconnecting with your friends and
classmates and reminiscing about our days at Colonie.

It's been 10 years since we've gathered together, and for some of us, it's
been even longer. It's been great to catch up with one another on e-mail,
FaceBook and the Web site, but it's just not the same as getting together.

We are excited about how highly-anticipated this reunion has become.

It promises to be a great night, and we hope you will join us!
