OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION: REUNION IS BEING RESCHEDULED

It has been unanimously decided by the current reunion committee that the North Davidson Class of 1994 - 15 Year Reunion scheduled for Saturday, September 26 HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. This is due to several factors including lack of participation, lack of funding, and the inability to locate all classmates in sufficient time. Please note that BOTH events scheduled for Saturday (luncheon and dinner) will be postponed while the class officers regroup, discuss alternatives, and attempt to locate the remaining classmates on our list.

All information that I have collected as committee chairperson will be passed along to the class officers, as I will be stepping down as chairperson and allowing them to take the lead. All monies collected by me from those of you who have paid will be returned no later than Friday, September 4... as I am awaiting the return of some deposits already submitted to venues. Your amount will be returned in full.

I will keep this blog open for future postings, so please check back periodically for updates.

I am very disappointed by this, although I do feel it is for the best. If you have any questions regarding previously planned events, please do not hesitate to contact me. If you have any questions or suggestions regarding the future reunion, please contact our class officers at:

Jeanette Tilley Torain - mrsjrtorain@yahoo.com
Niki Nash Koesel - nikikoesel@gmail.com

Thank you,

Reunion... RESCHEDULED!?

There is a strong possibility that the reunion dinner scheduled for the evening of 9/26 will be canceled due to lack of funds.

I have contacted the reunion committee regarding the daytime event (whether to keep it or not) and about rescheduling the event in general to give folks more time to plan their expenses, etc. An announcement will be officially posted this week.

It is with great sadness that I make this announcement, as I have put a lot of heart and soul (and money) into making this event a success. Although there has been much interest in the event, I have not received the funds to meet budget. I have only received 5 checks, which will be refunded once a final decision is made about the event.

The shelter at Tanglewood will remain reserved for the time being. Perhaps we can still meet for the home football game that Friday night, and have the family picnic luncheon Saturday day. However, if we go that route, I will have to charge a small fee for the day event at Tanglewood as reimbursement for the shelter rental. Otherwise, I will request a refund and cancel that event as well.

I would love to hear suggestions and opinions on this situation. Is there a time better for everyone? How much time will you need to budget and prepare for the reunion if three months was not sufficient? Your feedback is vital as the reunion committee regroups this week to discuss the possibility of rescheduling this event.

Thank you,
Jennifer

Thank you to everyone who has stepped up and provided contact information for fellow classmates. We're gaining on the list, which makes me very happy!

However, we are in crunch time as far as finances go. There are only 9 weeks until the reunion... which really isn't much time at all. I can extend the "discounted" rate for one more week... if you guys will PLEASE start sending in your money. If I do not have some cash in soon, I WILL BE FORCED TO CANCEL THE REUNION!!!

Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you need me to mail or email you a copy of the invitation & RSVP card.

Thanks!!

THANKS!!

Thank you to everyone who has contacted me so far. I am so happy to see everyone interested!! I will be compiling a list of those of you willing to be on the planning committee this weekend for distribution next week. I also plan to post a blog with names of classmates I am not sure how to find. Hopefully we can find enough next week that I can send out formal invitations with RSVP and cost information after July 4th.

I had a suggestion made for a list of babysitters to be available for the night of the reunion. The idea is to have a list of local CPR certified sitters (mostly teens) available a few weeks in advance in case fellow classmates needed to find a reliable sitter for their children. In a similar situation, a few parents got together and reserved adjoining rooms so the kids could be dropped off to play & stay together while the parents attended the event. Is there anyone interested in this? Especially those coming in from out of town? Let me know if this is something I should pursue as an option.

Last bit of news for the day, Candace VanHorn called with wonderful news! She works for a sister company of The Village Inn (I had no idea) and may be able to score a discounted rate for the night. She is currently in negotiation with our liaison at the hotel, and plans to contact me as soon as she finds something out. Once final arrangements are made between The Village Inn, Candace, and myself... I will sign the contract and determine a price for the event. Thank you again, Candace!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. :-D

ATTENTION: Reunion Alert!!

Hello friends,

It is official!!! ...We're currently in the discussion phase of planning our 15 yr class reunion. We're trying to get some details anchored before we nail down a date, but we have a few questions to ask you guys up front. Please respond to the questions below as soon as possible. Once we get an idea of what the majority anticipates, we will get the ball rolling!! I intend to set up a website for the reunion once the structure is in place. I will post another note here so that everyone can reference it when it is available.

1. Who all is interested in attending!? (An estimated head count is crucial in determining cost, etc.)

2. Would anyone be interested in attending a NDH home football game the Friday prior to the reunion. (This factor will help us determine dates.)

3. Our intentions are to host a daytime family picnic luncheon, and then an adult only semi-formal dinner that night. The picnic would be relatively inexpensive. The semi-formal will be a buffet-style with dancing/DJ. This should hopefully accommodate everyone. Any objections? What would be your ideal ticket price for the dinner?

4. Discounted rooms will be available. Current rates are around $70. Thoughts on this?

5. We will be compiling a committee of helpers for things like decoration and research. Anyone interested in volunteering?

6. Can you please help us find everyone?? Thanks to facebook and MySpace, we have a good head start. If you know how to reach anyone NOT currently on either site, would you please have them contact me at jbauguss@triad.rr.com or 336-225-1121?

7. Does anyone have anything else they would like to add?

PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS. We appreciate your prompt communication. Please share this with other classmates. If I have not added them as friends yet, please ask them to request me so that I can include them as well. I did not tag anyone to this note yet, hoping most of you would see it and share it on your own... but I can tag if necessary. I'd love as much feedback as possible!!!

Thanks!
Jennifer Bauguss
