Planning Meeting #1 Notes – 01/08/2024

We had a great meeting last night! We tried a Zoom call and finally had some success. I’m not the best at tech stuff! In-person attendees were: Gary Schuessler, Alan Bisher, Steve Dubbs, Bryan Johnson, Kelly Holloway and me. Zoom attendees were: Randy Baker, Kim Eaker Brazil and Susan Richards Barnes. We also talked to Doug Cannon and Allen Toole on the phone.

Planning Notes:

*If you or someone you know has moved or updated information since the last reunion, please let Laura Dillman Bennett know.

*We will be sending out test emails in the next few weeks to see if the information we have from 2019 is still good.

*Kelly Holloway is going the look into setting up a block of discounted rooms at the Courtyard Cape Girardeau Downtown.

Friday, July 12, 2024:

*The Booster Club golf tournament will Friday during the day. Allen Toole will be heading this up. Laura Dillman Bennett will provide email addresses to him so he can share information.

*Friday evening we will gather at The Library in downtown Cape beginning at 6:00 (doors open at 4:00 if you want to start earlier). They will have food available to order and cash bar. We always see so many other people that were not in our class at this event.

Saturday, July 13, 2024:

*Susan Richards Barnes is going to work on planning an activity for the daytime. If you have ideas, let her know.

*Kelly Holloway’s family has been renovating the Buckner-Ragsdale building at Main Street & Broadway. It will be finished by early May, so she has offered this venue. We are excited to do something different than the casino. Once we receive information on catering for the event I’ll have more information to share and a per person cost. We usually start about 5:30 on Saturday evening.

Next meeting: Monday, February 5, 2024 at 5:30 at Advanced Pest Control, 530 County Road 317, Cape Girardeau, MO. We will also set up a Zoom meeting and post the link on the group Facebook page.

Starting Plans for 45-Year Reunion!

Yes, you read that right! We are starting plans for our 45-year gathering and we are sure we will have just as much fun, if not more, as we did at the 40th! If you weren’t able to join us, we hope you can make it to the next one. Keep checking back here for plans as they are announced. If you were lucky enough to attend the 40th festivities, thank you for attending! Hope to see even more classmates at the 45-year…
