Pre-Reunion Activities

With the exception of the Early Bird Party, Pre-reunion Activities are not "reunion scheduled events".  These are things classmates want to do on their own and the reunion planning Committee acts as the conduit for bringing classmates together with similar interests. Times and places will be posted to the Reunion Bulletin Board, and they will be continuously updated from now until the reunion as classmates suggest activities in which they want to participate.  To go to Pre-reunion Activities, click here.
