Going to be hard to play golf in that snow Rocky! 72 here today!

Those snow banks remind me of our winters as kids!

Only seven weeks until we launch the boat. Remember the Slow Gin Fizzes on my grandfathers boat?

People are going between all neighboring states right now. (New York, New Jersey, Ct., Mass, Pa, Vermont etc)

If all goes well lots of current restrictions will be removed. I would suggest we wait and see. 
 

Since receiving our vaccines,we have ate at some restaurants and the pent up demand is crazy! 
 

Hope everyone is well and trying to enjoy life again!

RIP   I have just been informed that Jeff Sanderson passed away last night . He suffered a heart attack.

John Vincent

So sad to hear about Jeff. Have not seen him since graduation. He was a great guy with lots of talent.

What was the name of his band? Tom Gangemi was in it with him. 
 

Condolences and prayers to his family. RIP Jeff.

I'm now fully Phizer vaccinated and want to verify that our 50+1 Cicero-NS reunion is still scheduled for Sunday, 9/19/2021 at Borio's so I can start researching flights.  I am definitely planning on attending!  Thanks for everything and I'm super excited!

John Vincent

As far as I can predict, we are still on for the Fifty plus one event at Borio's!

Everyone should keep their fingers crossed!

Sandra "Sandee" Cassano (Brown)

Thanks much John!  Is there a 'schedule' of events for the day or just a 'start' time at Borio's?  Thanks again!

John Vincent

Sandee,

Have not set up any other events yet. May have a couple school tours and who knows what else! 

The party at Borio's is only event cast in stone so far. Any suggestions are welcome!

John Vincent

The Cicero class of 1971 is having a reunion this July 11th. It is being held at  Nesticos in North Syracuse from noon until five o'clock 

Please pass this info on to anyone you know that maybe interested!

Only about three months until our "fifty plus one reunion"!

Hopefully everyone is starting to witness the return to normal life!

Linda Dempster (Warmington)

Thank you John for all you do!    Do we have a set date for our 50+ reunion?  I thought I read once a date was scheduled in September.  Thanks again. Linda

John Vincent

" fifty-one plus one"

Linda Dempster (Warmington)

Thanks John.  Marked my calendar!  😌

Sandra "Sandee" Cassano (Brown)

I'm booking my flights next week.  And SO excited to be able to attend now that I'm fully vaccinated and FL and NY are fully re-opened.  John do I have to make a reservation/buy a 'ticket' for our 50+1?  

Thanks again for all you've done and continue to do for us--your efforts are truly very much appreciated!  See you in September :-)

Deborah Green (Wilcox)

Greetings to all. I've got all my travel plans in place for attending. I've been in touch with forever friends and look forward to seeing so many more friends and classmates and talking the afternoon away. So looking forward to seeing everyone at this 50th+1 celebration. Deb Wilcox

Payment for attending the Borio's event will be taken at the door. The cost is still being negotiated with Borio's.

When the cost is set in stone I will post it on here. Let's hope for a perfect September afternoon on the lake!

Please try and let everyone know that this will be the official reunion site. So reach out to others and please stay tuned. A total anticipated head count might' be needed as the date nears. We can do that here on this site.

If anyone has any other event ideas or targeted reunions for groups please use this forum.

Have a great summer and stay tuned in here for updates.

Glenn Gartland

Just to echo the many thanks to John for all his work in organizing the reunions.I was wondering if there is a hotel specified to stay in for the reunion. I know there was other years, but I don't remember which one. I'm so looking forward to the reunion. Thank you again, John

John Vincent

There are hotels in Cicero and Brewerton. I have not approached any for a deal. Most everyone that travels has a preferred vendor and already has a better deal. Last reunion we stayed at the Holiday Inn Express right off the Cicero exit. There is a Comfort Inn there too. 
 

If anyone has any recommendations please post them here!

Sam Anderson

John's hotel references are the closest to Borio's, in the center of Cicero, easy I-81 on & off, with a Country Kitchen restaurant within easy walking distance (others nearby).
