Requesting photos galore!

The Entertainment Committee will create a slideshow for banquet on Saturday, June 21, 2014. Please submit old and new pictures of yourself for a continuously running slideshow. For our Meet and Greet event held in May last year, some classmates sent thirty (30) or more photos. A 2014 Slideshow folder was created last year and already has some photos in it, so please start sending favorite photos of yourself now. Please help us to keep photos organized by right-clicking on your JPEG picture files and renaming them with a more descriptive name. For example, instead of a file name like 100_0894, use something like Jesse HanksLondon Trip. If you need help with files, please ask your children or grandchildren to help you. Please send copies of your JPEG files to this e-mail address: mays_glendora@hotmail.com

Its not too late

Did you miss the Friday, January 31, 2014, deadline to pay at least a $20 deposit of the $75 reunion funds? Please send your $20 deposit or $75 reunion funds so we have an accurate head count of classmates who plan to attend class reunion on Friday, June 20 (Meet & Greet), and on Saturday, June 21 (Banquet & Dance with DJ Music).
