Hi to all! Have just had a chance to take the time to read everyones input. Whatever dates ya'll decide someone will hate it or can't make it. Basically, go with the majority. I'm a dealer at a casino so really no date is good for me. The summers are the busiest. What about the weekend before labor day? Usually, everyone has plans for labor day. I agree with Trish's idea of looking into the Hilton. Alot of people are coming in from out of town and Danbury is still close enough to Carmel to schedule any events. Although, Fishkill isn't to bad either. I haven't been home in awhile to know what's new/old or good/bad.
Now that I'm living in Mississippi for nearly 11 years, those people that live in Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana; school usually starts the second week in August and lets out in May before Memorial Day. Though, I do believe there is not that many of us.
I'm looking forward to the reunion. I hope I can make it. Our oldest son is in the Marines now and just told us he's planning on getting married soon! Were we this stubborn and pig-headed at 19? Then our daughter informed us that we'll be grandparents early next year. Those of you that are doing the math-my husband has 3 children from his first marriage, but had custody of them so I've raised them. We also have one son of our own.
Enough on that-has anybody taken an ad out in the Putnam Trader to post the URL? I like the idea of creating our own site for the class of '83. My husband's class did that on MY Family. It seems to be working out wonderful for them. You should see the pictures they post-some from grade school on up to graduation. It brought back some great memories for him.
I just want to say to Laurie and Janice-you've done a great job with the site and all your hard work.
