Dear Classmate,
I promise not to repeat it if you don't! It will be our secret.
In less than nine months, over 130 of us will gather together and
bring back the 70's!

Over the course of this year, we're going to provide you with reasons to come to The Fab 4oth:
We already said, folks do not come to reunions because they feel they don't, "measure up."
Try This One Out:
Because Wall Posts Aren't Real Conversations - Seeing LinkedIn and FaceBook status updates from your old friends or even sending a few messages back and forth just isn't the same as seeing them in the flesh and catching up. As hard as it may be to believe, some people don't even maintain social networking accounts. If you haven't seen your high school friends since graduation, there's no better place to catch up than the spot where you all went your separate ways.
Because Living Well is the Best Revenge - High school can be rough, especially for kids that don't quite fit the mold. If you suffered through high school and have since built a wonderful, rewarding life for yourself despite the tough days, showing off your success to the people that treated you badly can be quite vindicating.
Are you in? Think About it!
As for volunteering, we could use your help. We have some "Manageable Projects" that you might want to put your name on.

As for volunteering, we could use your help. We have some "Manageable Projects" that you might want to put your name on.
- We are executing a very viable slideshow that will run through the course of the evening, and we will have an online memory book.
- These tasks simply require a person who knows how to use their desktop or laptop. The same goes for the photographic name tags.
- Anyone of you who wants to participate, feel free to make contact and we will have you join the ranks.
- We can also use some help searching for the MIAs (Folks Who Are Missing in Action) by finding them on LinkedIn and Facebook.
Any support and assistance you can provide is warmly appreciated!
