Committee Notes:
We met
4/25/13 at the Muni to continue planning the 45th Reunion. Smaller group competing with the NFL
Draft, among other things.
Classmates in Attendance:
Dusty
Macgregor; Lucia Harmon; Jeff Walton; Vicki Linden;
Chris Utz;
Randy Lofgren
Updating the Class Data:
We
continue to make slow progress updating our class roster. Updated
printouts were passed out.
Class Mailing:
We looked at a draft of a mailing for the class
and discussed examples of items that were sent last reunion. The
only physical mailing for the last reunion was sent on May 8th of 2008,
so we are on schedule.
The only change on the draft
mailing was the inclusion of a target range for the cost of the event,
which was not included in the draft. The group thought that it
needed to be in the printing so that people understood the price target.
In addition to the main letter, we will include a survey that can be
returned and a listing of the class and status to promote help locating
others. A small group will get together at Dusty's on May 9th to
assemble the mailing and Jeff Lambert has generously offered to run the
mailing through his office. We will send to all classmates once in
a physical form and use the web and email for anything additional.
All mailing items will be posted for access by the class at a later time
in the form of a web download.
Other:
- Vicki
Linden has volunteered her farm for Friday evening festivities which
would be less formal and could include food, music, horseback riding and
etc. We will look into this offer for part of the festivities for
the weekend.
- It was verified that Sue Leposwsky had passed
away and her information is updated on the web site.
Dusty reported that a down-payment has been made for the dinner cruise to hold
our date.
Please send any new or updated information to
Jeff
