Hello Moline High School Class of '63,

As summer is fast approaching, Marty Smutz Burland sent me a note about how excited she is about coming to our 50th reunion on September 13-15.

And, she also noted that I should remind classmates who are coming to start booking their airline flights since fares always climb as it gets closer to the that September date. You should also check local hotels such as the Radisson for rooms.

I believe the Reunion Committee will be sending out mailings also, but I wanted to get the word out to those with email addresses and those who use
(1) Our Class web site (classreport.org/usa/il/moline/mhs/1963/),
(2) Moline High School Alumni web site (https://www.alumniclass.com/moline/ )
(3) our Facebook site (http://www.facebook.com/MolineHighSchoolClassOf1963).

I obtained a copy of the Moline High School Alumni Directory 2013 and am updating my email addresses. Remember you can update your news and your own profile information for free on our website directly. If you have a new address which you would like us to use or want more information contact me at goranson.stephen@gmail.com and the Committee at molinehighschool63@gmail.com.

Marty (the Committee and I) hope you and families are well. We look forward to seeing you,
