Dear Fellow Classmates of FVHS 1970 Graduating Class:

September 7, 2009

Since I am now in a state of semi-retirement, I have the time to kick-off the expectation that we can have a great class reunion for the 40th anniversary of our graduation.

I just this morning had a conversation with the lovely and talented Patty Gilbert Hill about the prospects and ideas for this event. We decided that there are really three things we have to consider:

When (Winter, Fall, Summer, Spring)
Where ( City, Hotel, Beach, Mountains)
What ( Friday and Saturday or just one day, dinner, etc.)

When: We need to get responses from everyone as to what time of year is the best for all.

Where: Patty suggested a resort area in Savannah and I suggested Brasstown Bald resort. Please submit any and all suggestions and we will negotiate a deal in these economic times. Anything! Nothing is off the table.

What: One day, two day week-end, 30 minute lunch (just kidding) or WHATEVER. I like the idea of meeting somewhere with plenty of “stuff” for all to do in a leisurely sort of way and then have a few collective planned activities e.g. a parallel parking contest or a dog dipping class. Maybe golfing, boating, eating, sleeping, drinking or hiking around for the more adventuresome folks.

LET’S GET THE BALL ROLLING! We still have plenty of time to make our 40th the best ever.

I have seen a few comments about a reunion from Monisa, Charlie Crawley and Randy – so let’s get some more comments. Maybe we could create a web-page to this. Who’s good at that sort of thing?

(Our new Blog spot is http://fvhs1970.blogspot.com/ and we also have set up a Facebook page - Fortvalley High )

Life is too short not to do this!
