Summit Class of '65 45th Reunion
|
Location:
|
Friday: pre-reunion "Cocktail Rehearsal" - Marco Polo Rest., Summit. (Almost everyone shows up for this! Very informal and a lot of fun.) - Saturday Reunion dinner/dance: Westin Gov. Morris Inn, Morristown, NJ - Sunday: TBD.

Details:

The 40th was so much fun we decided to do it again in 2010! The "Committee" has been working for months and we now have a date, a time, and a place. More to come! Last Reunion had about 140 people and, with more organization this time, we hope to have about half the class attend. The hotel we selected has the bar/restaurant capacity for all of us, and we have negotiated a room-rate for those that need a room for a night or two at a whopper of a discount! As for the price mentioned in this announcement - it is not final! It's a place holder! The last reunion was $100 so the Committee is guessing that this one will be more because of inflation, and we have a jump on the planning to give us more options. The final price will be announced by the Reunion Committee when they have everything locked down. Also, I have contact information for about half the class, so if you are looking for anyone, contact me. There's a fair chance I have their contact information. (I'm also seriously looking for other class members, so if you know of any....!)
