35.0. "Class Reunion Ideas" by XCUSME::HATCH (On the cutting edge of obsolescence) Wed Jul 28 1993 17:20

    I've decided to organize a class reunion for my very small high school
    class. For what ever reason we never had a 10th reunion and I would
    like to get together before 15 or 20! 

    Anyway, I'm looking for ideas. Things that were done for your reunion
    that you thought were successful. Maybe even things not to do. What
    type of initial letter do I send out to classmates?
    
    
    Thanks,

    If there's a copy of a yearbook that can be sacrificed, cut out a
    picture of each person who is coming and attach it to a name tag.
    Sometimes the informal pictures in the yearbook are better for this
    than the posed pictures.

    Good idea, but why massacre the yearbook?
    
    Take it to a good xerox place and get it done for 10 cents a page.

    Well, to some of us, yearbooks are valuable, and not deserving of being
    cut into little pieces, unnecessarily.
    
    Ed, would YOU sacrfice your high school yearbook for that?

    I think the yearbook committee had some extras lying around.  For
    the number of times I've seen my HS yearbook, it would have been
    put to a good use by being sacrificed (reduce, reuse, recycle).
    As for UNH '71, UMASS '74, '76 I don't know if I've ever seen them.
    (I was in UNH '68 and UNH '72 before graduating in '71 so had no
    attachment to any particular class anyway.)  As for grad school
    The only time I remember the undergrad student body was the night
    they set the streaking record, oh wait maybe that goes in the
    size-vs-IQ note :-)
