Reunion Booklet

Chris Allers Weseman has volunteered to put together a booklet of classmate info! Thank you Chris!!!

She wants it to be a "Remember When Theme", besides what are you doing now, include your favorite High School memories. A memorial page will be included as well.

If you have any pictures you’d like to send her she can scan them into the booklet.

JoAnn Winters Frazier is also putting together a slide show of old photos for the Saturday night gathering so she would like copies as well.

Review of 1/12 meeting...

Review of the 1/12 meeting at Vicki’s –

June 4th was confirmed for a no host gathering at Hood River Country Club in Oak Grove. Folks wanting to play a round of golf will have to call and make their own tee time reservations. Food service will be available for those wanting to eat dinner prior to the no host bar. No cost to attend, other than your own food/drink/golf.

June 5th was confirmed for venue of Mt Hood Winery. Cost per head has been discussed but can’t be finalized until the food service is confirmed. We hope to be around $50. per person. It will not be a sit down dinner but finger foods.

Both dates will be open to anyone that attended WyEast, Hood River or Hood River Valley high schools and teachers. This will be advertised in the Hood River News and the Dalles papers.

We are gathering as many current email addresses as possible so that we don’t have to spend money on postage. Please forward any classmate info you might have to our email address at wyeast70@gmail.com, we have less than half of the classmate’s emails.

Vicki has confirmed with Hood River County fair board that there will be some camping and RV sites available for those wanting to bring an RV or tent for accommodations.

Accommodation info will be included in the final announcement of reunion plans that we hope to have out around March 1, 2010. There will be RSVP deadline of May 7, 2010 for the June 5th attendance.

JoAnn has volunteered to put together a powerpoint of old photos to be shown during the gathering on June 5. Anyone wanting to share photos can scan and email to her or send her the pictures and she will scan and send them back.

Gordon Leigh of Positive Negatives Photography will be there on June 5th to take group photos. We are still trying to decide if there would be interest in video interviews that could be put on a DVD.

Vicki will be doing further investigation on finding the food service people and making those arrangement.

We will set up a mailing address for RSVPs to be sent to and Francie & Debbie are looking into making payment possible via paypal so that those that would like to use credit card may do so.

Sue Willis attended the meeting and will work on notification to her classmates. Julie Cantrell has said that HRHS 70 would like to join us and she will be working on notifications to her class.

Please share the word with others you know that you think would like to attend.
