High School Reunion

My high school reunion was the 2nd weekend in October. I was honored to be one of the two co-chairs. It was truly a labor of love. We worked on the reunion for over a year. This picture is of the fabulous Courtyard at Gaslight Square in Corpus Christi, TX. We were so fortunate to have wonderful vendors: Arnold Medina, DJ with Blue Moon Entertainment, Alisa Demers with Ashed Photography and the crew at Gaslight Square and Diamond Point Catering. One of our classmates, Don P., put together a video featuring pics from our high school days and another classmate, Marcie D., made a beautiful cake. People also donated items for door prizes. Several classmates made very generous donations so we were able to pay the bills! LOL

 I really get a kick out of attending my reunions. It's fun seeing people I hadn't seen in many years. We created a Facebook group during the summer of 2014 so we had a head start on finding people. In fact, due to the FB group, I got to know people I never knew in high school.  The reunion festivities were spread out over the entire weekend with an informal gathering on Friday night, the big event Saturday night and a beach party on Sunday.  During the weekend, two of the committee members volunteered to co-chair the next reunion in 5 years.  Thought we'd better not wait a full 10 years!
