Your reunion committee voted unanimously to have a mini-reunion in November, 2010 to celebrate our 70th birthdays. Some of us will be 70 or 71 by then, besides, it’s a good reason to celebrate.
Mark your calendars for November 5, 6, and 7, 2010 for our mini-reunion. We’ve made arrangements with Best Western Lakeside, the same motel in Kissimmee, at the same rates we paid in 2006. It will be $45 per night, plus taxes and fees, (total is $61.02) and the rate is good for 3 days before and three days after.
The motel is a beautiful property, well maintained with comfortable rooms, swimming pool right outside our rooms and a miniature golf course where we will have our tournament on Saturday morning. The weather in November is perfect for Floridians; cool nights with warm (not hot) days with lots of sunshine.Bring your shorts because the whole weekend is casual.
At the mini-reunions, the Hospitality Room is open all the time because that’s where we gather to talk and trade stories and photographs. All you photographers please bring your photos from the 50th and any others from past reunions. Our group photo at the 50th will be available at the mini-reunion. If you want a copy now, please contact Pat Shanklin Sandmeyer.
For those attending for the first time, here’s what we have done in the past; on Friday night we have gone to an area restaurant for dinner and returned to the Hospitality Room. On Saturday morning (not early) we have had our “golf” tournament. Saturday evening we have had our dinner catered and we ate in the patio area and had music, games and dancing. Sunday morning we have walked across the street to the Golden Corral for breakfast. For those who stay Sunday night we will have a surprise event for dinner.
Please make your own reservations with the motel. Call them at 1-800-848-0801 with option #3 and ask for Coral Gables Class of ’58 group block. We will be charging a registration fee of $25 per person to cover the cost of the Hospitality Room. Please send your check to Janet Barbour at 8130 Sandpoint Blvd. Orlando, Fl 32819. HYPERLINK "mailto:barj22@yahoo.com" barj22@yahoo.com. Make check payable to Gables Class of ’58.
Remember to bring your Memory Books as we will have some additional information. If you need to update, contact Kay Whiteside Spitzer at CGHS58@YAHOO.COM. If you have information for the Memorial Book, contact Pat Apeland at vikingpat@embarqmail.com. There will be additional mailings to remind you of our reunion and to keep our addresses current. We plan to a mass e-mail also to correct e-mail addresses.
HAVE A GREAT SUMMER.
