Photos of reunion

Just as an FYI: If anyone still wants a large print of the class photo ($20) or a memory book ($35), you can still order them. Email Lawrence Hood at rap4kids@hotmail.com until Tuesday August 16th and he'll take care of you. He can take your information and mail you copies.

We Need Your Help!

Can you help? We have not sold enough tickets to cover the cost of our reunion and are facing a substantial shortfall. (As of 7/26 it is $2,775.) Fortunately some have asked if they can help by making an additional contribution. So, we have looked at two options for you!

Do you have a business that you would like to advertise? We will insert your business card in our power point presentation of photos from our year books! All you need to do is forward the image of your card and we will add it to the rotating slide show that will run during the reunion. The cost for this option is $100.

One Business Card Sized Ad

For those are interested in making a contribution to fund the reunion, you can click the button below to do so. You'll have the option to type in whatever amount you can give.

Your help will be doubled as an anonymous donor has agreed to MATCH each donation. If you can help, it would go a long way in whittling down the amount we owe for the room rental!


Finally, we are truly grateful for the support our classmates have shown. Thank you from both of us for your help making this reunion wonderful for all to enjoy!
