------------------------------------------------------------

Well the long awaited update is here.

After almost two months of seeking out as many of our classmates as we could, speaking with various different venues, collecting data from surveys, getting feedback from all of you, and finding just the right experience for our ten-year reunion, we finally have a date and location for the event:

The top floor of Deuce's at The Diamond Nightclub on the Northside of Chicago. Keep reading...it gets good.

This classy establishment boasts two fully stocked bars, lounge
and table seatings, a private DJ booth, private washrooms, and 9
flat screen TV's.

Along with that, from 7-10 PM we have an open bar of call
liquor cocktails, bottled beer (including domestic, imported, and
craft), house wine, and non-alcoholic beverages, not to mention an all-you-can-eat buffet of at least 5 of their best food options.

That in combination with all the fun of hearing throwback music
from 2003, the possibility of showing vintage DGN videos on some
of the TV's, a handbook on your classmates to help "break the ten
-year ice", nametags, raffles for prizes, dancing, DGN/10-year
trivia, balloons, and the possibility of even more balloons.

And best of all, you need to take an escalator to get up there.
Or an elevator. Your choice.

Take a look at the link real quick. The place is ridiculous.

http://www.deucesandthediamondclub.com/tour-and-gallery

All the ritz of a fancy ballroom setting like the Abbington in
Downers Grove. The fun of the all-you can drink deals right in
the heart of Wrigleyville. The perfect combination for the ten-
year reunion, where we can catch up and have fun after all these
years. And all of that for just $60. To put that in perspective, the
year we graduated the prom tickets cost AT LEAST $50-75, and we didn't even get booze unless you snuck it in a water bottle.

And if you were curious as to how much Prom cost this year at
North, it was a $100 a ticket. No joke. (More info on how to pay for the event soon to come)

So come join your former classmates for a night of celebration.
Call the babysitter, hit up the friend that lives in the city for a
place to crash, do whatever it takes to join in on a party that's
ten years in the making.

Just be there.
