11) Please send us your comments about future events
The main purpose of an event should be to get a chance to talk to classmates you only get a chance to visit with except for these gatherings. If so, then of most importantance is a gathering place conducive to mingling.
While I live in Oregon, I try to make them, I have 5 kids spread around the midwest and combining trips to see them all is challenging. Much thanks to the committees and administrators of the class. You are doing a terrific job !
Our committee hadn't discussed April: winter's over, it's not June, snowbirds are back home. The 3rd weekend in Sept might work, too. We don't leave for the winter, so all dates are fine for us. Future events: casual events, even for the 55th & 60th, to keep the cost down.
Committee doing a great job. Even though I live in Rockford, IL, still have K. C..sister, making trip doubly great.
Keep up the good work
I love getting together. The photo trivia contest was fun! I would like to continue to be involved with the planning.
All of our events have been fun for me. Maybe your survey will open some new direction for get-togethers. I enjoy both the major events and casual ones. Some classmates might enjoy a little bit of background music played during events. It will be interesting to see what ideas the survey turns up. I'm flexible. May I fill out the survey more than one time.
Getting together is the fun,venue does not really matter
If you are having an event that requires us to pay for the room there are members of the class that have indicated they would make a contribution to help cover the costs
Would like to see more classmates attend. Also in favor of talking about combining our class with those classes before and after us. 63 & 65
I like casual get togethers and time for visiting. I love it when the two Dons lead the program with a few words.
Love the casual relaxed gatherings with no loud music or dancing anymore and we can just visit with everyone. I heard that Gary Berbiglia really hosted a great venue. I wish that I could have attended.
Thanks for trying to keep everyone up to date and INTERESTED in our class......
I have been to only one reunion, and that was only to fulfill my community service to the elderly!! One of these days I would enjoy going to another event (s). I am not a joiner, but sincerely enjoy seeing those from a distant generation. I am saddened to hear about Don Snoddy. Though I did not know Don very well, I wish him well, and a complete recovery!
