Goal 1: 250 email addresses....

By February.

I've told twenty people....now if each of those twenty told two and those two told two more, by February we should have email contact with the majority of our class. To keep expenses down, I think it would be wonderful to have 95 percent of the reunion planned via the Internet.

In February, what classmates we don't have email addresses for, I'll be mailing postcards to. We have plenty of mailing addresses and phone numbers, but cold calling is never fun when you aren't in the mood to tell dozens of classmates that you ended up in Indiana being held against your will for the last twenty years. (You know I jest.)

Next, video. Years ago, I worked a class reunion. One of the alumni was into video production and visited a handful of classmates in what I'd call a "What are they doing now..." short film, projected on a large screen for all to see. It was lively and funny and bright; not to mention, caused the entire place to erupt with laughter. That is what I would like to do for our 30th. So....

Digital is the medium. If you have a digital video camera and are visiting your classmate friends in the next year and a half, please interview each other, or ask that someone interview you both together. Just a few minutes.

Use your imagination!

For right now...email addresses...don't make me cold call...

Air hugs,

Wendy & the committee (there is still plenty of room for more committee members. No meetings! You only need Internet and a phone!)

I awoke this morning to find these lovely ladies in my inbox. This is exactly what this blog is about. Celebrating our memories with the sharing of images. Three snaps for Jim and Laurie (Goodearl) Ferris!
