Thanks again to Shirley and Pat
for hosting our July pot luck!
September is here and so is the rain! We got an early start on fall weather but it
means clean air and no fire danger. This
may have been the BEST summer weather ever!
Our regular coffee hour will be Tuesday, September 24th
from 5ish to 7ish at the Woolley Market!
50-YEAR
REUNION
Here is some business to discuss:
I have
already had inquiries about the 2021 50-year class reunion!
There
are people who want to travel here from elsewhere and they also want to
participate in the Loggerodeo parade – you know, when we have a “float” and we
try to live up to the great entry that Class of 1969 had this year? Anyway, that means that we should have our
reunion right next to the 4th of July.
Interestingly,
the 4th of July falls on a SUNDAY in 2021. So we could hold our reunion on Saturday the
3rd. There have also been
some suggestions that we have more than one event; a cruise on Bellingham Bay,
a traditional salmon BBQ, maybe a pre-function on the 2nd?
Now is
the time to think about it and to voice your opinion. Do you want to have the traditional get-together
that we always have? Or go to a
restaurant and have it catered? And
dress up? A daytime additional
event? Or just stick around and go to
the wood carving event? Pre-function on
Friday? Other ideas? We will also need to decorate our parade
entry and be ready for Sunday morning. I
will turn in the paperwork for the parade entry but who will work on getting us
a vehicle, a concept, etc.? I still have
the two banners.
And I
can use some more photos from your high school album.
We’ll
have a commemorative “book”.
There are
still people who have not been found. We’d
like to make sure they are included. I
will put together a list of the folks we are looking for and send it to you at
some point in the future.
Think
about all of these ideas and contribute some of your own. We want to make sure our 50-year reunion is
the BEST it can be!!
In other
news, the bowling alley is re-opening with a Mediterranean restaurant
inside. Stay tuned.
Early
warning: Our October Coffee Hour will be
held, in the dark, on Tuesday, October 29th. At the Woolley Market.
So “fall” on in to the Woolley Market on the 24th! See you there!
