I agree Mr. Clauss--Let's do a 35th Reunion! I had so much fun and truly enjoyed visiting, dancing, laughing and singing with everyone. Class of '79 does Rock and so does the Reunion Committee. You know who you are--TAKE A BOW FOR PUTTING ON A SUPER EVENT! As soon as I get some sleep and dazzle my prospective employers at a job interview tomorrow morning--I'll post my pictures.
HI EVERYONE!! It was fantastic see everyone.. Actually, it wasn't long enough, because there were so many I saw and never made my way over too, and so many we didn't get to get enough of! It was a blast.. All those invisible yet tangible connections we've made over the last 30+ (for those of us who met in kindergarten to eighth grade) weave the tapestry of our lives together like a beautiful grandmothers quilt...
Much love and blessings, from the rocking, upside down grandmother! BJ
PS_ Thank you sooo much MARC BITEMAN!! You totally were the Driving force behind it! BRAVO!! And to all of you, Mona, Susan, Pam, Paul, Kelly, and Greg!!! EVERYTHING ROCKED, and thank you to the ROCK BAND that never stops rocking hard!
To everyone and anyone. Thanks for the memories. We had a great time at the Reunion. I was sad that I didn't get to see more people. How does Paul and Russel look the same? I must be getting old.
Thanks again to our reunion team for doing a great job. Only thing I think that we missed was having a Reunion photo. Maybe next time.
What a great weekend! Thanks to the committee for planning such a fantastic event! Glad to hear that we will continue to meet and stay in touch! Thanks eveyone!
Okay wonderful classmates. It was amazing seeing all of you, and the whole event was just magical. Tony and I had a blast! I just put Brown Sugar up on You Tube, so check it out. Please excuse my bad camera work. I was trying to watch the show and video tape it simultaneously and so the quality of the recording suffered.
Thanks to ALL who made this weekend a big success! The facility, music and food were all great. Colleen and I had a fun time catching up with old friends and creating some new friendships as well. Hope everyone that traveled had safe trips home. See ya all at the next get together!
A HUGE thank you to everyone on the reunion committee...and for your relentless phone calls Marc! You guys really did an amazing job. I too wished it was longer since there were so many people that I didn't get to spend time with! I can't remember the last time when I was with a group that was just so happy to be together! Thanks also for keeping the website going so we can stay in touch...
Mimi - I think you misunderstood what I said. I didn't say "watch the Rockets" I said don't forget to "wash your sprockets"...... Very important to clean your sprockets before you oil your chain! Sorry for the confusion.
Marc Beitman, Pam Brown, Paul Douglas, Kelly Reading, Susan Spruce and Mona Stacy- Thank you so much for all your work. I wasn't able to make it to the reunion, but it reads and looks as though everyone who did had a wonderful, fantastic time.
Is there a way to gather all the pictures, videos, and other media on one page on this website, so that all might upload to the same area and all might be able to view without going to individual profiles? Just wondering.
Kim - thanks for posting the youtube. It looks great.
All who posted pics - thanks for sharing those.
I really haven't had to much desire to reconnect with the past until this reunion/website came along. Reading stories, participating in the message board, seeing pics from then and now, etc, has been a truly overwhelming experience for me. I feel nothing but fond nostalgia for each of you and you have helped me carve out quite a precious niche in my heart to hold the memories.
Okay, I've just posted the 2 Bad Company songs on YouTube. That's all I'm gonna put up, though, as my camerawork is especially bad in the Joe Walsh and KISS songs. I was distracted during "Rocky Mountain Way" trying to see just what the heck BJ and my husband were DOING?!?!? (LOL). Don't know what my excuse was during the encore KISS song - tired arms, I guess.
We are checking with the webmaster on where we can put all the reunion pictures.
Thanks everyone for a great and memorable time at the reunion. There just wasn't enough time to catch up with everyone!! Dang! It is amazing how after 30 years that we can all come together and just connect again - it was awesome! Thank you!
Sorry I missed the festivities... I have watched the videos and seen most of the pictures that have been posted on different classmate profiles... all look great.
