About That Time!

After several months of planning, various emails and phone conversations the CHS Class of 1995 10 year Reunion is upon us. This has definitely been a group effort on getting this planned and all the details worked out. I think a special "thank you" is in order for Jason Hollified for all his work on securing a place, sending the evites and just keeping up with details in general. Kelly (Davis) Homesley deserves her own "thank you" for agreeing to keep up with the money, no small task in itself. Thanks to all the others that have contributed ideas and suggestions and to Chad Porter for fronting the deposit for Tyber Creek. Chad, from the sound of things you will be getting your money back. When you see these folks at the reunion, please tell them "thanks" and, if so inclined, buy them a drink!

From what I understand, it looks like we are going to have a great turnout with those that have RSVP'd and sent their money in already. I'm sure there are some that haven't done either but will still be there. If you plan on showing up, please bring money to pay at the door to help us cover expenses and have money for our next reunion, hopefully in 5 years.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I am really excited about getting everyone together. There have been a lot of people resurface that I haven't talked to in years so I know it will be fun catching up and seeing what everyone is doing.

I do have to say that, unless there is someone that I don't know about, Shane, "The Great Watuse" Grigg will take the prize for traveling the farthest coming from San Jose, California. Shane, thanks for planning your holiday trip home around us. Now I know I won't be the baldest person there!

With all that being said, I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving. I know many of you will be traveling in some capacity so please stay safe. Also, if you haven't thought about it, please make arrangements to have a designated driver or a hotel room for Sat. night. From what I understand, police are really cracking down this year on drinking and driving, especially around downtown Charlotte. Not only that, but we want to make sure everyone is around for the next reunion.Look forward to seeing all of you on Sat. night!

And thank you to you Ben Payseur for all his help with everything. Without Ben's input and help with the decision process (including the Blog) we'd probably be meeting at Gasland (which wouldn't be so bad now that Bojangles is there.)
