July update

The reunion planning committee met Sunday afternoon, July 15 to work on plans and preparations for our 40th reunion. Classmate George McClintock joined us, and we all enjoyed more laughter, fun and friendship -- planning this event is as much fun as the actual celebration in October is going to be!

Updated plans as of July 15:


Friday, October 12, 2007:

* 6:00PM -- Tour of Southeast Guilford High School, meet in the school cafeteria; light snacks and drinks provided

* 7:30PM -- attend home football game -- tickets are $5 each; special group seating.


If you were an athlete, band member or cheerleader, please wear your uniform or letter jacket (if you can still fit in it). EVERYONE is encouraged to wear the "orange and "black" school colors.


Saturday, October 13, 2007:

* 8:30AM -- Buffet breakfast at the K&W Cafeteria at 4310 Big Tree Way (off West Wendover Avenue); individual payment for your food

* 11:00AM -- Golf Outing at Stoney Creek course, 911 Golf House Road, Whitsett, NC (exit 135 on I-85/40); $34 -- must register by September 30th by calling Joe Parrish at 919-280-5188; pay when you arrive to play

* 7:00PM-- Registration and mingle/renew old friendships; cash bar;
Dinner at 7:30PM-until at the Stoney Creek Golf Club, 911 Golf House Road, Whitsett, NC (exit 135 on I-85/40); $40 per person; DJ with oldies music, door prizes, and special entertainment

The official invitations will be mailed out in early August -- watch for them!

Please note that we had to raise the cost to $40 per person to cover the costs of this event. Committee members already have generously covered some of the expenses (and probably will continue to do so) out of our own pockets with donations, but those pockets are only so deep!

Anyone who has a favorite "must hear" song request for the DJ, please let us know and we'll add it to the playlist.
