We've Got Stamps!

Folks, your participation in the Spring 2011 Get Together means that the Reunion Committee has enough money to spring for stamps to send your condo drawing tickets back to you. I was just kidding about $10.44 a chance. We appreciate it but it isn't necessary.

We're starting to get entries in and have appropriated a big jug for the drawing tickets. Linda is thinking about the drawing already. She's thinking that we ought to do it in public so we're considering locations to do a drawing. You don't have to be president to win, uh, present to win but something this big ought to be very public to make sure that everyone knows it is on the up and up. I'm arguing for a few consolation prizes but Linda made me promise not to crack jokes about the weekend getaway at the Westside Holiday Inn Express. The whole consolation prize thing is still up in the air.

Well we got a personal call from Nate Blackford saying that our class photo was going to be in the Westside edition tomorrow. We'll see. The proof is in the pudding. If it isn't there, we'll start a letter writing campaign.

The Courier Press published our big photo with my blurb following. If they had copied and pasted, they could have gotten our website address right.

BTW, Barb Barrows Francowiak sent us a new email address. It is on the website and will be incorporated into the Class Directory.  Just keep those updates flowing in. Keep Linda's work meaningful. If you move, change phone numbers from land lines to cell phones, change email addresses; if any of your contact info changes, shoot her an email or a phone call.
