Reunion plans are getting better & better! Vic Holland is providing a spaghetti dinner at 6 PM Saturday. Please let us know if you plan to join us. jspoon@charter.net

The 2010 Alumni Reunion will be Saturday, August 14.  Hickory Dining Hall will open at 9:00 AM. No meals are planned at this time.  Attendees should bring a picnic lunch or plan to eat off Campus.  The availability of rooms in Wiese Hall has not yet been determined. A group picture will be made on the steps of Hickory Hall at 11:30. At this point, the day is unstructured except for the group picture. So, return to the Patterson Campus to visit with old friends and to make new ones.  Reminisce about your time here and what the School has meant to you. The future is still uncertain: Only God knows the plans He has for our beautiful campus, but we can rest assured that they will be good, for He is good. People are invited to make donations this year instead of the School setting a fee.  If you plan to be here on the 14th, please RSVP Janet Spoon at jspoon@charter.net.  Give your name, your class year, and how many will accompany  you. We look forward to your visit–as always!

Update on Reunion: Wiese Hall open, $10/person. Remember your linens, pillows & fans. If you’re coming, please let your friends know so that they will be more likely to come.  If you would like to help in some way while you’re here, bring a weed-eater & don’t forget your picnic lunch.
