Event Update

We had a great meeting on Tuesday night and a great time........... thanks to all who participated and offered suggestions and input. Also, thanks to Minksy's whose manager is also an SM East graduate ('97) as well as The Blue Moose manager (SME '95). There was an exceptional turnout from the Classes of '72, '74 and '75. We're really hoping for many more to hop on the Bandwagon (I mean the Float) as we get closer to October 17th...........so spread the word and grab your classmates!

Deb Niewald '75 and Alice Robinson Levy '71 volunteered to co-chair our All '70's TGIF immediately following the Parade at The Blue Moose and have the plans rolling on that. Final information will be forthcoming.

Dates of Note:

• Saturday, 10/4 @ 9:00am Float Rough/Frame In Day
  
• Tuesday, 10/14 @ 6:00pm Major Construction Night
  
• Thursday, 10/16 @ 6:00pm Final Float Top Off & Champagne Christening
  

All of the above events @ Jeff Wright's Home '72, 8825 Mission Road - BYOB - If you can also bring a hammer, circular saw, extention cord, tape measure, utility knife , especially a drill (screwdriver) or staple gun......maybe some '70's CDs. If you can't, come anyway. All of the materials for the float arrived from California via UPS yesterday, so that's all set.

We know not everyone is available to participate in the Parade and the festivities on October 17th, but hope that the other events will offer an opportunity for you to join us any time that your schedule will allow...........so please come when you can!

With the 50th Anniversary, this is a one time and out series of events, so don't miss it. We know we will all have opportunities with our future class reunions, but we've put ten classes together from our decade and have really expanded the fun! So we'll see you there!!

Lastly, we have sponsorship opportunities for those businesses and/or individuals that would like to help underwrite our costs and possibly donate the excess to the School. This is entirely voluntary and we are not expecting anything from you but your time and participation. If you would like more information about this please contact me or your class contact.

P.S. There's also a rumor "floating" around that if this turns out as good as we think it will, that we'll take the float on the road for the Tournament of Roses Parade on New Year's Day in Pasadena. We're checking that out and will get back to you later in a future posting.
