Greetings LHS alumni!

Summer is here and the weather has been wonderful.The stock market is bouncing back and the reunion is moving ahead. Ahhh, life is great.

As you know, the committees are working hard in putting together the best reunion ever. In the meantime we will make every effort in keeping our grads informed of our progress. Below is a quick update from our invaluble Events Coordinator Trish Kane.

Update - August 3, 2002
We would like thank all the Lynbrook grads that are getting involved with the reunion plans and to all those visiting our website. We will continue to post important reunion information as it becomes available.

Please Note: The August 10th General Session Meeting has been postponed to August 24th. The time and location will be announced soon!

The Logistics and Business Committees are working on several important items regarding this event. We are addressing the issue of our event’s Non-Profit status to better manage the receiving of donations and the distribution of money to LHS. We are addressing the concern regarding insurance for this event. We have a “hold” on the Santa Clara Convention Center for August 9, 2003. We anticipate signing a contract and making the required deposit by August 9, 2002. We cannot sign a contract with the SCCC prior to one year out of the event. After careful review of facilities in the San Jose area the SCCC was the best choice. It can handle a large group, has the services we would require for this kind of event, free and ample parking, and nearby hotels. These committees are also working on the budget. This will determine the actual per person cost for the event.

It is our intent to publish a “Save the Date Card”, post on the websites, and e-mail everyone possible all the information by the end of the month.

We are still looking for people to represent their class! This means helping to get the word out….you tell two friends, etc., etc.

Keep checking this website for new information! Thank you.

New And Improved Web site!
I would like to welcome Randall Christensen class of 1970 to the communications committee. Randy will be working with Lisa and me in expanding and developing an improved website. We are excited about the new features, which will include a gallery, mutimedia, and be more interactive. We hope to launch sometime in September.

Lisa has asked for all of you to please send in your pictures of now and then. A slide show/video put to music is being made. You may send to lisakauai@yahoo.com.

Online Invitations!
We have developed an online invitation through Evite.com, which we will be sending out in the near future. All Grads will be able to RSVP with their guests name, send comments and pay their deposits through PayPal. So please, it is important that you get your contact information to us as soon as possible. You may e-mail to rfigueroa@lhsvikingsreunion.net or to lisakauai@yahoo.com. Mailings will go to those without e-mail addresses.

More Help Needed
Well, as you can see, the committee has their work cut out for them. Any ideas and suggestions, as well as, voluntary planning help are welcome! Please check out the reunion site often and send your contributions…our success depends on YOU! And finally…as always…my pitch for alumni contact information…it wouldn’t be a proper ending without a plea from the reunion committee! Give your classmates a fair shot at attending! Forward contact information to using our on-line Contact Form for Fellow Vikings.
