OMG!! We had soooo much FUN! It was such a Blast!!
On behalf of the Class of '88 20th Reunion Committee, we would like to thank all of you that came to the Reunion this weekend. Thanks to all of you, it was a tremendous success & we think we can honestly say that a great time was had by all! All of the feedback so far has been very positive & we've had lots of people wondering when the next one is...honestly people...we need to catch our breath first before we start talking about the next one! But, rest assured...there will be a next one & it will be even better than this one...if that's possible!!
It was so good to see everyone & if I do say so...Everyone Looks Awesome!! We are all growing old (did I say that?!) very gracefully!! For the most part, everyone looks the same & just as good as we did 20 years ago!
We had about 230 people join us at Meghan MacMurphy's! Quite the crowd but everyone was so excited to see everyone that no one noticed that we were right on top of each other! Most everyone hung around for most of the night & a handful of us even closed the bar @ 2 a.m.! Just like the old days...but not as easy to bounce back as it used to be!! A special thank you goes out to Michael Hunt for making T-shirts for our Reunion. They are awesome & a great way to commemorate the event! They were a Big Hit & thanks to Katie..every last one was sold!
Saturday was just as successful as we had about 200 people or so. Many different faces joined us on Saturday that weren't there on Friday, so it was just as exciting as the night before! Saturday wasn't as casual as the Happy Hour & everyone looked great in their somewhat formal attire!
Towards the middle of the evening, Katie presented her awards to 1st check received to Karen (Millane) Whitney, Last Minute Charlie to Lisa Thornhill, Amy (Sachs) Yam (same letters in 1st name as in her last name), farthest travelled went to Emmy Hart from Washington and 1st Email response went to Michael Hunt & High School Sweethearts...just to name a few! We were also able to get a class picture with everyone that attended & that was interesting...to say the least!
We had a 50/50 Raffle both nights however the "Pot" was never claimed on Friday night...SO...we added $188 to the Saturday night total to make a grand total Jackpot of $299! The lucky winner was...drum roll, please...Mark Spadafore!! Congratulations, Mark!! :)
The food was great according to those that ate...we had reports from some that they were having such a good time catching up with everyone that they forgot to eat & were starving when it was time to leave!
It was a fantastic weekend & one that won't soon be forgotten. I hope you all enjoy the attached slideshow http://www1.snapfish.com/thumbnailshare/AlbumID=242520254/a=147006436_147006436/fromupload=true/imagecount=124/videocount=0/t_=147006436. (**password is classof88). I hope that those of you who couldn't make it, it helps you to feel like you were there...cuz God knows you were all with us in spirit & we missed you & look forward to seeing you at the next one!!
Please feel free to attach your comments for all to read...we would love to hear your feedback! Thanks again to all of you who joined us!! We loved seeing you all!

Terrific Pictures. A very big thank you, ladies, for your tremendous work to put this together. I was only there Friday night, but, from the pictures, it looks like Saturday was great. Thanks, again....

WOW! It looks like everyone had such a great time! I've spoken to some old friends that attended both nights and you folks sure do know how to throw a party! I was unable to attend, but I'm hoping, with some rest and relaxation, that you will decide to undertake a 25th reunion! Thanks so much for all of the pictures! Looking at them made it feel almost like I was there celebrating with you!
Thanks again! Deena Boudov Swenson

I had a wonderful time and the committee did a wonderful job of planning the event. It was the right mix of formal and informal.
I would say that in the future, we would want to schedule the reunion in the summer. I had friends from outside the area who said that it's tough for them to get away in the fall.
Other than that - couldn't ask for anything more.
