Places to Have a Class Reunion

Where are some good places to have a class reunion? To answer this, I guess it may depend on the size of the class.

Here are some ideas:

Any other ideas? Later on, we can add contact info.

If we do have it in the MHS gym, would it be the old gym or the Neuhaus gym...wow. That would actually be sorta trippy. Maybe someone knows of a club or place that isn't so out in the open like Pepe's (mosquitoes suck in the summer and its chilly in the winter). I don't know if anyone cares, but has anyone looked into Fast Eddie's in McAllen or whatever? But as Omar pointed out, we really would need to know just how many people we are talking about here before we start making decisions.; ▶ Reply to This

It doesn't look like much on the outside, but it's pretty nice inside. For our class, based on the last reunion, it may be a little much. I just put that out there because the forum is open to other graduating classes that may have use for it.

I'm open to whatever venue the committee decides. We just have to work on who will be a part of the committee and then we need to start making decisions. I'm going to start making a list of things that we need to do so that it's not a vague concept. It's probably easier to ask everybody to do specific things rather than simply asking for "help". I realize that it could mean just about anything and committing to "help" could mean commiting to neverending tasks. This way, we can all volunteer to discreet, simple tasks and be done. This should not turn into a nightmare for anybody.; ▶ Reply to This

I am open to somewhere comfy...I am going on 5 months pregnant and need a comfy place to sit and especially EAT!!! (hehehe); ▶ Reply to This

I don't know if that was pre-arranged or if it's something NHS does for all alumni. If anybody wants, we can meet in October somewhere to brainstorm a bit.; ▶ Reply to This

When did the season start ending so quickly??? I can remember it going on until at least Thanksgiving...I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. :( In the case of "help"...let me know what is out there to do and I'll let you know what I can get away with according to time restrictions on my part. On the whole, I think I may have a bit more "play" going on timewise than everyone else (single and no kids), but I do have to watch my academic integrity (too many papers and tests and crap) plus my job....BUT I can make time for this...It's IMPORTANT! Just let me know Shaine...Maybe Kendra and I can team up or something?; ▶ Reply to This
