Opening
The Meeting was opened by Rick by reviewing the
current committee and its members. Rick thanked the
committee for their unwavering commitment, hard
work, and dedication to see the Mega Reunion come to
Fruition in August 2024.
Family Day - Patrick McDowell (78)
Patrick provided an update on his research of a
potential Family Day location. Discussions included
the results of the current poll located on the LHS
Message Boards which closes on July 10th, 2023.
Currently, the poll only has 50 votes split upon the
possible locations considered. 50 votes is hardly
enough to determine a location based on voting.
Saratoga Springs has emerged as a possible location
based on what it offers and the ability to
accommodate a group of our projected size. Research
and negotiations are ongoing.
Saturday Night Social - Debbie Luck
(77)
Debbie is still in negotiations with SCCC. A
tentative date of August 10th, 2024 is slated but
not finalized until an actual contract has been
signed. Some of the points that are being negotiated
are A: a minimum room booking of 50 rooms per night
including Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The
committee has determined Sunday is not necessary and
off the table. B; Other areas being negotiated are
internet fees, facility add-ons, etc. Once
negotiations are completed SCCC will not allow us to
sign a contract until one year out from the event
date. Therefore, a contract will not be signed until
August 2023 at the earliest.
Friday Activities - Rick (73)
The Committee had a brief discussion on Friday
Activities, it was determined all Friday Activities
are not LHS Mega Reunion sponsored. All events will
be at the sole discretion of those who choose to
organize any events. The Mega Reunion will only
provide a source of advertising for any events
planned. Previous Mega Reunions included a
motorcycle ride, golf tournament, and swim
competition which is not an option this year. At
this time, no Friday Activities have been planned to
our knowledge.

Website - Rick (73
The official Mega Reunion 2024 website was launched June 1st,
2023. The website was created with Web expressions 4, a
professional web design tool but designed for desktop and Laptop
applications. It is not mobile responsive (Mobile Friendly) but
can be resized for cell phone or tablet viewing. Keep in mind,
you will not be viewing it as it was designed. Cell phones and
tablets will stack and do not have the ability to view custom
fonts. The website has its flaws but continues to be improved
daily.
The message boards have 145 members but have very little
activity. We will continue to promote it with hopes activity
will increase.
Other Notes
The Committee will not be meeting in July, we will reconvene in
August with a lot of new information.
