Class of 71 reunion planning under way!

Yes, we are planning our 50-year reunion!

After much discussion, we want to proceed with the reunion plans even if we don't know yet (as of April 1) if there will be a Loggerodeo or parade. 

So our dates are July 2, 3, and 4!

Friday, July 2:  Walk on the ferry in Anacortes and ride to Friday Harbor.  (Carpool from SW.) Return in the afternoon.  Departure time TBA.  Lots of time on the ferry for visiting.  Lunch and activities on your own in Friday Harbor and lots of visiting on the way back!

Saturday, July 3:  If there are Loggerodeo activities on this day, you are on your own for visiting the venues.  Such as log carving, carnival, street sales, etc.  

The evening event will be at Sue Ann Bryson's.  

About 4 we will begin setting up.  Local class members will do most or all of the catering.  Menu is the same as always:  Salmon, baked potatoes, salad bar, desserts - some sugar-free options.  $25 per person.  (The $25 will pay for food and help defray some additional expenses for the weekend, such as parade fees and supplies.)

Gather at 5.  Eat at 6.  Program at 7.  Then visiting and CLEAN UP. 

Additional events and surprises pending. 

Sunday July 4:  If there is a parade, we will gather at the parade staging area between 9:30 and 11 and climb on the flatbed trailer with hay bales!  Yes, there will be stepstools.  Wear red, white, and blue or CUBS blue and white!  Parade is from 11 to 1.  There may be a fun run prior to the parade.  Watch for announcements. 

After the parade, our weekend is over. 

So this will be in the local papers, occasionally, between now and then:
