Wow, I'm impressed with all the activity!

This is no "snail mail" protocol to send anything out from the website but -- if an email address is known -- you can click a person's name in Missing Classmates and send an invitation with an embedded link to register.

So far Mark Laney has gotten back to me on Messenger and he can't make it

Hi all, it's been 50 years since we all attended SHS. I'm finding my way around this site but don't really see anything about a get together for our 50th year reunion. Is there plans made?  If so, what are they?  

Vanessa Carter (Chamberlain)

Hi Jill-  check out the "message forum" on the left to see where we stand.

Memories...It's been 50 years since our HS Grad and 50 years since Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes, a record that still stands today! Yesterday, 50 years later my husband & I were standing in the paddock at the Belmont stakes honoring Secretariat 's win, before our own race.  50 years ago my Dad passed away May 20th of our Sr Year and 50 years just flashed before my eyes, all the highs & the lows. This fall we will celebrate our 50th HS reunion and i look forward to seeing & hearing about everyone! Hoping we can make our 50th special ...

Sharon/Sherry Hiter (Neble)

great news several of you have located many of our missing classmates! Any word back from Massies or If there is a possibility of having an Oct Lake George Boat Cruise ? The Superintendent of SGFHS went to Massies for dinner & she had suggested it earlier to me so I asked her if she could inquire for us.  She told me they told her they would prefer a Sat night to close for private party but for us to reach out  thru their Web Site contact info. I told her that a classmate already had . any updates? 

Natalie VanGuilder (Hoeppner)

Vanessa,  as someone who is coming a distance for our reunion, I would appreciate you looking into a block of rooms for us.  I would love to be able to visit with people even after our activities!   I have never gotten a block of rooms, so I'm not sure if there's a deposit, or if there's a problem if all the rooms are not taken.     On another note, I am willing to come up with some simple table decorations for the dinner Saturday evening, just to add to the ambiance

I went to a friend's 50th reunion last weekend.  I was paying close attention to how they did things.  They had a much larger class than we do, but the premise is the same.   I liked the idea of having different colors for the activities each person chose that required a cost . They had wristbands with the colors, and name tags for each day.  My thought was that if we could do a pin-on tag, we could put colored dots on the name tags which cut down on potential printing costs.    Thoughts?

Natalie VanGuilder (Hoeppner)

And thank you to everyone who is working so diligently to connect with our classmates 

Donna Winslow (Winslow-Bialozor)

Hello Admin of this site. Would it be possible to update the Announcement on the home page. I believe it is a message from the last class reunion. Maybe update to announce plans for 50th class reunion? Thanks!! DonnaWB

Vanessa Carter (Chamberlain)

Not sure what we are looking for in terms of rooms but will see if I can locate a couple places with different costs and room qualities near one another. Also I have still not heard back from the Chronicle so I wiill try again

Kevin Chamberlain

Natalie (from earlier today), good idea re the color codes! I would suggest that they represent ANY event, regardless of cost, so that folks know at a glance what others are planning. Unless someone objects, I plan to print nametags (probably multiple copies of stick-on ones) and will take care of the costs for them. The website has access to yearbook pictures which can be included. I, for one, will have a much easier time recognizing people from those!

Donna (also from earlier today), "admin of this site" would be me. I'm not sure how that old announcement came up but I've taken it down and added a word about the upcoming event. 

Vanessa Carter (Chamberlain)

The reason this is not coming together in an organized manner is we have no committee. People are trying to do what they are able to do and many of us do want to get together but without some type of leader and group, it will be a bit difficult. That being said, I think we have some great ideas and I think it can be done! However I think time is not on our side.The first hotel I tried (Fairfield Inn by Marriot) is already overbooked that weekend. I will continue calling until I have a block of 10 rooms but people might be wise if they do plan on attending (Oct 6-8) to make hotel reservations now which can always be cancelled. I'll speak for Kevin (who is working today) to see if we can set a date soon to have a meeting to collect all the information we have and establish a calendar of events. It should be in the Event area at the left side blue column so please keep checking.This may not turn out to be the fanciest reunion but it should be fun to get together again. Hey we're going to do this!!

Vanessa Carter (Chamberlain)

OK Just heard from the Landmark which is fairly close and had decent comments. King one person is $85 and 2 people are $99. I have 15 rooms held until 30 days before (September 6) under my name. The hold will go off then. If you would like one of the rooms contact THEM directly @ 518 793-3441. I have the rooms for October 6, 7, and 8 (in case you want to stay through Sunday so if you'd like to cruise then and leave Monday, you can. Jist let the hotel know. If people would like something more upscale, I  am talking to the Queensbury in Glens Falls and will put in a message when I hear back from their person in charge. Comments/other suggestions?

Thank you to Admin for posting an updated Announcement on the home page!!  Happy to help on any Committee that is formed!! Thanks to everyone for efforts so far. DonnaWB

Donna Winslow (Winslow-Bialozor)

Hi Vanessa, Thank you for all the work on reserving blocks of rooms!! If I can't stay with family, I usually stay at the Queensbury Holiday Inn Express right off I-87 Exit 18.  Fairly new, great amenities. Close to everything. Just a suggestion for those who will need lodging that weekend. DonnaWB

Vanessa Carter (Chamberlain)

Checking Donna Winslow's suggestion of Holiday Inn Express and they (along with others affiliated with them off exit 18) should have bids to me by noon Friday.
