What a great 50 + 1 reunion weekend we had (September 24-25)! The weather even cooperated.
Our ‘informal’ at Coreys was a huge success, thanks to Bill Corey. Bill, our server Lilly was incredible. Our Saturday morning tour at Everett was very enlightening. I heard comments that our days there seemed like the Dark Ages compared to all the technology they currently have. Our tour leaders were amazing. Our Main Event at the Ramada was a big success. We are so appreciative they were able to host us after our last minute cancellation of our original venue. They did an incredible job.
Tremendous thanks goes out to my Reunion Committee: Sue Beckner Mayes, Marc Bennetts, Dave Brigham, Sherrie Eastman Nunheimer, Kit Langenbacher Pull, Paula Munn Krauss, Steve Krauss, Diane Reck, and Gail Sawyer. Without their tremendous help, we could have not pulled this off. We had so many last minute challenges that we faced. Although the event planning was 31 months in the making, the biggest challenges all occurred in the last month.
Your thoughts of appreciation, kind words and gifts last night were truly unexpected and humbling. We are such a connected class. Over these past few days, what we have had for so many years, and continue to grow even further, makes me proud to be a Viking.
Again, many thanks to those of you who attended. We faced a lot of challenges but it was so good to see so many, share stories of the good old days, laugh and celebrate. We hope to see even more of you for our next one.
