Editor’s Note: This is a comprehensive summary of what’s coming for our reunion. Everyone should read it and nail down his plans to attend. For those staying in hotels, see the links and other information to help you BOOK NOW when the “reunion rates” go live next Wednesday, Jan. 31.
We are working on two ideas to add a little music to our reunion. Eliot Norman suggests:
1. Putting “Street” Pianos at the two ends of the tent in the courtyard at TD. Folks can just play a bit as they feel like it, while walking by, whether to entertain friends, jam or just communicate their thoughts.
2. Organizing a “pop-up” band and sing-along participation fun event after dinner on Saturday.
For further information, read more or contact Eliot (email).
Editor’s Note: Reunion co-chairs update us with announcements re: which college will be our reunion HQ; previews of likely presentation topics; timing of the memorial service and Class Dinner; and other updates.
Yes, it’s quaint, and a bit nostalgic, to sleep in our old rooms … on those “Yale single” bedframes that squeak when you sit on them. But many spouses or partners are not so, um, adventurous, nor brave enough to deal with shared bathrooms, third-floor walk-ups and the other limitations of dorm living. They (or we!) want a regular hotel room, thank you very much.
Reunion co-chairs Bill Newman and Derry Allen report that YAA has assigned the 55th Reunion for the Yale Class of 1969 to the weekend of May 30 – June 2 of 2024. Mark your calendars! Save the dates!
Here’s what little we know so far about on-campus housing, hotels, program, cost, registration, etc. And here are some things you can do over the next month or ….
Reunion co-chairs Bill Newman and Derry Allen are asking for YOUR help in formulating the “class-only” reunion events. Please join an ad hoc “planning committee” for two one-hour zoom meetings to a) define and then b) choose the reunion events offered by the class.
