We begin with a gathering at a Marriott hospitality suite on Friday evening, continue with a dinner/dance at the nearby Cafe Escadrille on Saturday evening, and ends with a Sunday morning brunch at the Marriott. Registration will take place on Saturday at 5:30 pm. To date we have 75 signed up for Saturday dinner and 41 for Sunday brunch.

CONTACT INFORMATION:

Thanks to the continuing efforts of the LOC and many enthusiastic classmates, we have accounted for over 90% of the 222 members of our class. This includes 135 for whom we have email and/or postal addresses and 68 who are known to be deceased. That leaves 19 who remain "lost." Click on Email Addresses or Class of '49 to find your fellow classmates.

We are continuing our efforts to find missing classmates. Please click on The Missing to see a list of those whom we have been unable to locate. If you have information about any of these classmates, please email me or any member of the LOC.
