Please pass on an invite to any of our class who has not yet 'signed up'.  Dave and I have a bet on whether or not we will reach 55 class members attending (10% of the class).  Dave to the under.  I'm still optimistic.

We've Outgrown Our Room!

The growing excitement over the Mini-Reunion has been so strong that we have decided, after consulting with the Hyatt, to move into a larger room. The new room is the Delaware Suite. The picture below shows the room set up for a conference. We will have it set up for a party, with a bar, conventional tables and chairs, high-top tables, etc. We will be more comfortable with the larger space, and now we can accomodate even more late responders, who continue to turn up almost daily.

See you at 6:40 on Friday, May 7th...just 17 days away!!

FAQ!

Q: Is the Class of '64 Mini-Reunion the same as the "Decade Gathering" for the Class of 1964?
A: No! The Mini-Reunion is for Class of '64 graduates + their invited guests. The Decade Gathering is for all classes of the 1960's. The Mini-Reunion will be at the Hyatt in downtown Buffalo. The Decade Gathering will be at the Tap Room on Eggert Road, which some of you may remember as the former Park Edge Supermarket.

Q: Will there be nametags? I am not sure I will recognize anyone!
A: Yes. We understand the problem. Both appearance and eyesight have changed since 1964. Nametags will be provided, in fact, they will be mandatory.

Q: How many people are attending the Mini-Reunion?
A: We may have to drop "Mini" from the title. As of today, with 18 days to go, we have about 41 Class of '64 attendees. With their guests, we are at a total attendance of about 56. Everyone from the Class of '64 is invited, and responses continue to dribble in. If you know a Class of '64 graduate who is not (yet) coming, please encourage them to attend.

Q: Is there a deadline for signing up?
A: No. Come at the last minute if you like. You will have to fill out your nametag by hand, however, so we are encouraging everybody who plans to come to let us know in advance.

Q: Will there be drinking at the Mini-Reunion?
A: Yes. There will be a cash bar. As with nametags, we may make drinking mandatory. What's a reunion without drinking?

Q: What time does the Mini-Reunion start?
A: 6:40. (Duh.)

Q: When does it end?
A: "quarter to three"

Q: Will there be food at the Mini-Reunion?
A: There will be limited snacks. Everyone is encouraged to have a nice dinner before coming.

Q: Will there be tables?
A: Yes. And chairs.

Q: Are some people attending both the Decade Gathering and the Mini-Reunion?
A: Yes. A suggestion would be to go to the Decade Gathering first, then come to the Mini-Reunion. Or vice-versa.

Q: Is there a list of people attending the Saturday night dinner (aka Gala Jubilee Celebration, "Forever Young")?
A: Yes. Click here.

Deadline for Saturday Signup Extended AGAIN!!

Good news for those of you who somehow missed the original and then the extended deadline for signing up for Saturday's KE-turns-50 dinner. Your intrepid reporters have found out that the double-secret deadline has been extended again. The new deadline is now Monday, April 19.

We know there are no slugs out there that haven't signed up yet. But just to be sure, tell your friends: The new deadline is April 19. To get the necessary forms, click on the gold logo to the left.
