Join us for the 40th year Reunion for the Class of 85!
We've got a couple of events where you'll be able to share the company of your classmates the weekend of September 26/27/28. Some of the events we're still arranging and we'll send out notices as the details shape up but in the meantime, pencil it in your calendar!
Friday night the 26th we'll meet at the Maine South football stadium, Wilson Field to cheer on the Hawks for their homecoming game against Evanston. Game time is 7:30 but there may be homecoming events earlier beginning at 5:30. Eileen and Mary Rose made a 'class of 85' sign so we could gather in the same area to watch the game.
Satur-DAY the 27th--for those who want to meet up to see the parade be at the south west corner of Talcott and the end of the Maine South Drive to the athletics lot between 9:30am and 9:45am. We'll catch the opening of the homecoming parade which begins at 10am. For the tour of Maine South at 10:45am enter the school through the main entrance at the circle drive. For those meeting for the parade, we'll walk to the main entrance at 10:30am. IMPORTANT--the school doors will be open for us from 10:15-10:45 and then locked so we can't be late. We'll also figure out closer to the day who'll bring coffee and donuts for us late starters.
Saturday night the 27th we'll meet up for the soiree at Moretti's from 6pm to 10pm to catch up, share stories and reflect on the lives we've lived since our Maine South years. Register and pay online here to cover the cost of the buffet dinner and few more bucks to maintain this site (it'll be a cash bar at Moretti's). Most importantly is to get registered ASAP! We need a realistic headcount to lock in the upstairs room AND we'd like to avoid taking money at the door--it's pay now, party later!
Oh! and bring your dancin' shoes for the 80s jams!
Invite your old friends! A few of us will be getting the word out via Facebook and other social media as well as a High School Reunion site for those classmates doing a general search. However, we will need your help to ensure you get to see some friends you might not have in a while; please reach out to those you're still in contact with to invite them to come to this site. They'll create their profile and then be able to share or not share their info as they wish. We're hoping this site can act as a way to make contact with our classmates even if they can't make it to the reunion event this year.
Hope we'll see you there!
Cheers,
Matthew (Uhlig) Talmage and Reunion Crew Eileen (O'Leary) Murphy and MaryRose (Sereno) McCarthy
