Dear Classmates                                          12-20-10
 
Here we are close to the end of 2010 and getting ready for another reunion year. It is hard to believe we are 55 years away from graduation. The date has already been set for FRIDAY, AUGUST 19TH 2011.
 
We will be sending details on time, dinner menu, golfing information and other necessary information in a mailing in late April or early May of next year.  Ticket price for the reunion dinner will be $40.00 each.
 
Arrangements have been with the Hampton Inn adjacent to the Strong Bow Inn for 10 rooms at 109.00 plus taxes. If we fill these rooms they will add additional rooms if we request them. We will deal with this issue in the next letter. The rooms include two queen beds and a full breakfast.  The rooms are all non smoking rooms. They only have 4 smoking rooms which are not set aside at our rate. Other motels in the area may have more smoking rooms available.  Our agreement with them ends on JULY 18th at which time they will move any unreserved rooms to their regular inventory.
 
The Hamton Phone number is 219 531 6424. Ask for Jennifer or Christie and indicate you are wanting to reserve a room for the Hobart 55th reunion.  They prefer we us the direct number as opposed to the 800 number.
 
Other Motels in the area within walking distance of the dinner are:
 
Court Yard Marriott                219 465 1700
Fairfield Inn and Suites         219 476 0000
 
Other Motels in the area that driving would be required are:
 
Holiday Inn Express and Suites         219 464 9395
Country Inn and Suites                       219 476 0000
 
We are looking forward to seeing you at the reunion.
 
Your Reunion Committee
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Another meeting was held on Tue May 3rd.  Among the items discussed were the weekend agenda, booklet, music, last mailing and reservation deadlines.  This information will be mailed shortly and you will then be able to make your reservations.  Remember you have been able to make Motel reservations since the last mailing.
 
Again See you at the reunion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mailing went out on May 15th and we already have two replies.  Keep an eye on the response page to see who has replied and if they are attending.
 
Sorry to report we are having a problem with the signin on the guestbook link.  We are trying to get this sorted out with Lycos and will do what we can to get it up and running again.
 
Looking forward to seeing the reservation sheets returned.
