Save the date!

Okay, we are all locked in for the weekend of October 23rd at Cliffs Castle in Camp Verde for our 25th high school reunion. We have reserved the ballroom there for a dinner on Saturday night and more details will be forthcoming. Hope to see you all there!

October anyone?

I've been watching and waiting hoping someone would decide to organize our 25th high school reunion but so far I haven't seen any evidence that it's happening. So how does October 22-23rd sound for everyone. We were looking at booking a banquet hall at the Cliff Castle hotel for Saturday night and setting up a mixer of some sort on that Friday night.

What do you think?

25th Reunion: When & Where???

It's time to start planning the Mingus Union Class of 1985 reunion. How 25 (well 24 years) have gone by since high school is mind boggling, but I know I am looking forward to seeing the people I went to high school with and I'm ready to put that date on my calendar.

Which brings me to the point of this blog. It's time to decide when we are having our reunion and where. A possibility surfaced that everyone might want to go spend a weekend in Vegas to have our reunion rather than centering the activities in the Verde Valley. What do you think?

We have a group set up on Facebook (Mingus Union Class of 85 Reunion) so please comment either here or on Facebook.

My personal opinion is that more people will be able to attend if we keep the activities in the Verde Valley, and I worry that a weekend in Vegas, while fun, won't afford us a lot of time to spend together and catch up on our lives. But, like many people, my primary interest is having the opportunity to see everyone again. So bottom line is whether one location or another will cause some to be more able to go than the other.

Opinions welcome and wanted!!!
