By Bob Oliver,
Reunion Chairman
We are beginning preliminary planning for our 50th Reunion. This will be held either the last weekend in May or the first weekend in June 2012. The exact weekend will be selected by AYA in early 2011.
As chairman my first goal is to solicit ideas and suggestions from interested classmates. I want to arrange activities our class will most enjoy at the reunion. Next I want to assemble volunteers to chair committees or assist on activities such as the Reunion Book, arranging lectures and class panels, entertainment, class art and publishing exhibits, and other reunion activities we want to offer.
We also need to improve and broaden the availability of the class email address list to facilitate communications. I want to coordinate and encourage this effort begun by Class Secretary Jim White and Mike Kane across the country.
I will be sending out a preliminary mailing this winter to solicit ideas and volunteers. I have already received some comments from the prior posting on the class website.
Please email me your suggestions and whether you can volunteer to assist. (oliver@moglaw.com) Or call me: office 203-624-5111 or home: 203-467-8255.
At one of our reunions – 35th? the wives organized a panel where we talked about “real” and often personal stuff – where we are in life, joys, fears, etc. It was great. I suggest finding whoever did that panel and having a similar one. My guess is that for our generation, the women are often better at getting at the real stuff than the men.
