OK, this is kinda important. The planning committee for the 40th Reunion needs a decent head count for Saturday night’s Main Event at the Renaissance.

If you’ve already registered, carry on. We have what we need.

If you know you’re going but have not registered yet, why not register now (before Tuesday, Sept. 16) and save $20?

Here’s the important part …

Something tells me Tim Holt got outvoted.

From Tim Holt:

There will be a Reunion Committee meeting…Wed. July 16 at 7:00pm Rib Crib at 81st and Yale Ave. BE THERE or BE SQUARE !!!

Reunion Music Requests?

The reunion committee has hired a DJ who takes requests, so the question is on the table: what were the most (or least) memorable songs of our high school years, and why?

For example, Tim Holt likes “Freddie’s Dead” by Curtis Mayfield. Whenever he hears it, Tim says, it reminds him one time when he got thrown out while rounding third base trying for home. Whatever. I never played baseball.

How about it, you Aging Eagles? What music takes you back to the Smokehole, the Restless Ribbon or the 51 Drive In? Let us know in the comments.
