Bulletin from the Secretary: If you’re reading this you’ve logged onto our excellent website, Yale’s best one. Be sure to read in this posting Mike Kane’s minutes of the Y62 Class Council meeting of May 1, 2010. The minutes mention a Council effort to gather “missing” e-mails from some 260 or so classmates. Help is needed for that job, which involves phoning classmates and is easily and pleasantly done. If you want to volunteer – and I hope you will - just contact me at jameskwhite@me.com or 202-333-0590. Next, have you paid your class dues? If not, now is the time to do so, and note particularly the special “sponsorship” box in support of our 50th reunion. Can’t find your dues card? Our Treasurer David Honneus will get you one: dhonneus@comcast.net. Finally, read our website regularly to keep on top of Bob Oliver’s plans for our 50th reunion. Best to all, Jim White
I would like to receive information about a Class of ‘62 “70th Birthday” gathering in New York City, scheduled for 10/14 to 10/17. One of the activities being planned was a Manhattan Island Dinner Cruise. Unfortunately I managed to trash the original email message that announced this event. Thanks.

Charlie:
Not to worry. The card and e-mail that went out were only to get an initial reading of how many people would be inclined to participate. We will then build further information around those who have expressed interest rather than bombarding classmates with the great details who aren’t attracted to the idea of a dinner/dancing/glass-topped birthday cruise around Manhattan or the theatre or The Metropolitan Club dinner or the coruscating camaraderie of 70 year-old old friends.
Those who e-mail me will get further information about our blocked rooms at clubs and the costs for cruising. Never too late–our trial run with the New York City Mini last year was a great success.
Happy summer to all!
Kirk
