Class of 71 45-year reunion July 2, 2016 and coffee hour May 31!


 
Hey, SWHS Class of 71!

We have a plan for our 45-year reunion.  We just need you!  Here it is:

Saturday, July 2, 5:00 to ???  Yes, you can come early.  Don’t know yet what exact time we’ll serve dinner.
At Sue Ann Bryson’s house – same as last time.  Parking on site.
Dinner:  $15 per person, all prepared for you.
Menu:  Salmon, chicken, salads (various), desserts (various), soft drinks, and water.
Grill Chef:  Gary Rothenbuhler
Other food prep:  Take your chances

This date was selected by the group at our pot luck last summer.  It is right smack dab in the middle of Loggerodeo, so there are lots of things to do all weekend.  For a full listing visit:

www.loggerodeo.org  (this is the official site, in spite of a cybersquatter stealing one of their other URLs)

Yes, we’ll need some help getting things ready in the week prior to the reunion.  If you are a local, plz plan to help out.

Invitations:  Everyone on the e’mail list is getting this e’mail invitation.  Others, for whom I have a mailing address but no e’mail address, will get a quick paper copy of this text.  If you know someone who is not on my list at all (just ask) or if you run into class members at Costco, be sure to remind them of the July 2nd date!!

You can send your checks now to my PO Box.  Check your e'mail for the address or leave contact info here and I'll send it to you.  

Nancy Handy Scott and I will keep track of the reservations.  Plz pay in advance so we know how many are coming. 

At the last reunion we kept things pretty basic.  A group photo before the sun goes down, buffet dinner, lots of visiting. 

If you need more info on motels, RV facilities, or anything, please ask ASAP.  Some folks might like to meet up in the afternoon before our event. 

Yes, we’re having our monthly coffee hour on Tuesday, May 31st at the Woolley Market.  5ish to 7ish.  We will probably finalize our plans for food prep, etc. 

We’ve done this so many times that we all kind of know what to do!!  If you can’t join us on July 2nd, feel free to send a letter or photos that we can display for others to read at the party.  But we hope everyone can come!  We had such a great turnout last time. 

Monday, July 4th, we’ll have an entry in the Loggerodeo Parade.  Let’s see…why don’t we have a flatbed trailer with hay bales?  What a fresh idea!  Actually, it’s the tradition.  We have the banners from last time.  Wear red, white and blue!  Line up for the parade about 10-10:30.  It starts at 11.  Trailer is already reserved and I’m doing the parade entry forms. Not sure yet who is pulling the trailer – still need a truck and driver.  There will be stepstools…

Remember that there are Sedro-Woolley t-shirts and sweatshirts at Oliver Hammer and Rite Aid. 

See you all soon!!
