We would like to assure all of you that our decision to postpone a large class reunion was not made lightly or carelessly. Please allow us to briefly explain our situation, so that you understand our decision at this point.
As was the usual practice, prior to graduation the student goverment class set aside funds to be used in the future for class reunions. However, we have run into logistical problems with RHS and our funds that were set aside. The matter was not brought to our attention until recently and obviously too late to find a suitable alternative for funding such a large reunion. As I'm sure you know, a reunion for a class our size is a grand and costly event to plan. In addition, our class consisted of nearly 1000 students. Without any source of funding, contacting class members has proven to be time consuming, and at this point we have email address of roughly only 20% of our class. Waiting to have a 15 year reunion will give us time to figure out other means for funding it and time to contact a larger percentage of our class. Be assured that we will have a 15 year reunion. We are determined to make it work.
In the meantime, we are putting together a sort of informal reunion for this summer- something that will not require upfront funding, but still give as many students that want to and are able to participate an opportunity to reconnect. We hope to have detailes of the event posted very soon.
Please accept our apologies and know that we have our entire class in mind as we work on planning these events.
Sincerely,
The Reunion Committee
