From Steve
July 1
When I got in touch with Univ. of Hartford, I found they had replaced the manager I dealt with last year when we put together the Class of 63 reunion. After some phone tag with the new management, I finally pinned down our date, and we're confirmed for Saturday, October 30, 2004, 7:30 pm, at Univ. of Hartford 1877 Club, part of the Harry Gray Center, where the University hosts various kinds of events and meetings.
This facility used to be a faculty dining hall, and it includes a marble floored rotunda, where the refreshments will be laid out. The parking is a few hundred feet away, but it's a pleasant walk on a nice night. We neglected to place signs or markers to guide classmates from the lot to our 63 reunion, and so we got a bit of heat from people who lost their way. We won't forget that for this reunion.
To attract as many classmates as possible, we're lowering the price to $25 per person,in expectation of a subsidy pledge by one or more anonymous classmates.
I haven't had a discussion yet with the Gray Center about the menu, but it will be a light buffet along with complimentary beer and wine. They'll hook us up to play CD's in the rotunda and they'll provide us with a mike and lectern.
I've set up a link to pay by credit card. This is the link. I'll keep a running account and hold all money collected for the class by credit card in my business bank account until we pay bills. Payments to me will be considered to include state sales tax, collected for remittance to the University when it bills us for sales tax, as it's required to do.
Rich Holewa has been updating the class mailing list, and I should have that soon. Here is a list of classmates who can't be located:
