Hi Reunioneers!

The reunion is only a month away!!! Here's a quick update.

FRIDAY NIGHT (August 16th) EVENTS

For the Friday night informal get-together we have reserved la Boheme Bistro (old folks will remember it as Dugan's Deli, really ancient folks as Larson's West Street Grocery) at 2900 West Street. Doors will open around 6 or 7 PM. Live music is tentatively scheduled.

OTHER

We continue to receive registrations daily and at the current rate will run out of space soon. If you haven't signed up yet, we urge you to do so today. Sign-up forms are located on the web site. Look for the jumping green arrow on the "site directions" page.

About three weeks ago we added a bunch of new pictures to the web site with submissions from Keith Wessel, Dan Rice, and Clark Kenyon among others. There are many more pictures waiting to be added in the near future. Keep 'em coming. We wish to thank everyone who has contributed for sharing with us.

Sincerely

--- Your Past
