Most of this dedicated group of classmates have been meeting for 5 years to plan, organize and make all the decisions for this very special 50th reunion. While some have moved away, others have joined the group. It has been fun, time consuming and a lot of hard work. But we all feel it will be worth it and have not complained. In fact, most of us look forward to each meeting, to see the friends with whom we have worked so closely for so long.

The committee has spent untold hours looking for classmates, finding the best location for the most people, prices, deciding on food and details to make this 50th reunion wonderful. Jobs have crossed paths, doubled and trippled over the years, but the faithful workers have kept going with an amazing sense of purpose. Without the hard work of so many people, nothing would be happening to celebrate this special occasion. We hope we have carried out the wishes of those who expressed concerned or interest. If not, we certainly tried, so please forgive us! As we begin to wind down to the last few weeks, we look forward with great anticipation, and yet most regret that our job will be finished. We have all become such good, caring friends.

As the webmaster, it has been a labor of love to keep up (which was not always done in a timely manner) with the changes, additions and retractions. This job, too is almost complete, so we will change direction from the 50th reunion, to just keeping in touch. We hope we have helped through this medium for many of you to find lost friends and we plan to keep it going as long as we can. SO, keep the changes coming; new names, new spouses, new addresses, phone and especially new emails. We don't want to lose anyone after we have worked so hard to find you. Check back in the not to distant future and see what has changed and what you might be able to add.

In just a few weeks, we look forward to seeing many friends from our class. We want you to feel welcome and we are GLAD if you decided to attend. If you miss it, well.... we are sorry, we've tried our best!
