7 days
left until our reunion.

All tickets must be purchased In Advance!! There is not a physical ticket, your name and info will be on a spreadsheet at the door. If you bought tickets for the Chad and Jeremy show those tickets  were mailed or you can get them at "Will Call" at the theatre. The same goes for fab Faux Tickets, you either got them in the mail or you will get them at "Will Call" at the Klein.




Dick Grass and the Hoppers - Please Dear

8/31/10

The Reunion Record Hop has as of today 130 people comming from every Class from 1959 - 1974. It's being held at the Scandinavian Club on South Pine Creek Rd. near the location of the old Surfside, I think everyone knew where that was, I know I do. Tickets are still on sale and we expect atleast 150 people, come join us, it's a party!

I would also like to know if anyone attending the Fab Faux concert is interested in having an early dinner at Avelino's on the Post Road, before the show? Dinner will be served at 5:00 pm in plenty of time to get to the concert at 8:00 pm. The resturant can seat about 70 people, so I have to know whose interested. The cost will be $25 and a cash bar and you will have a choice of three entrees, salad and desert. I will have the exact menu soon, so please contact me to get on the list, it's filling up fast. You can contact me at www.rlhs60s.com thru the Contact page or just email me at jngill@optonline.net.

Friday night you will recieve a bracelet that is good for discounts at a number of resturants that are listed below, use it, it's good for the whole weekend. Click on the links and check out the menus, every one of these resturants have great food. If anybody has a questions  please contact me i'll be glad to answer them all. I am going to be busy for the next week so there might not be to many more updates, but if something important comes up i'll post it. Make sure you read the older posts to see what we have planned.

Remember there is a Classic Car Show and band at the Brick Walk, if your not going to the Fab Faux. Alot of us that are going to the concert are going to meet up after the show at the Flipside, which is part of the Brick Walk , so you can walk there if you are at the car show. We should be out of the concert about 10:30, so if you want to visit with Classmates, that's where we will be. There are still good seats left for the concert, just call the theatre at 203-259- 1036, use my name and get a $10 discount. Thank you. Jim

It's really close now, GET YOUR TICKETS!! I can't stress enough how I have to know how many people are comming, so I can order food and booze. The list is growing, as of today we're up to 80 people and they're about 50 of my friends that haven't purchased them yet, Let's Go!

I recieved a few emails about Saturday night if there was something to do if people didn't attend the Fab Faux Concert and in my last installment I named a few things. Here is an, ad for the Brick Walk, the Car Show with a band and DJ. http://www.klebanproperties.com/connecticut/fairfield/residences.htm

Also another resturant made the list of discounted places to dine, Flipside Burgers and Bar. http://www.flipsiderestaurant.com/

Important News!! Location, Location, Location!

The news is that the location for Friday night has been moved. It has been moved for a bunch of reasons, all good, and it's only a mile from the original (FTC). The "New" location is the Scandinavian Club S.Pine  Creek Rd. (click link for Map and directions)
 http://thescandinavianclub.com/default.aspx 
about a mile from the Theatre, so you can still see Chad and Jeremy if you bought tickets and attend the Record Hop, with out  much trouble.
 
I would like to list all the resons for the location change, but it's boring. I'll give you one  "Air Conditioning" it's a big plus, the warehouse had none. If any of you attended the Class of "65's" 40th where it was 90 degrees and 100% humidity and a giant thunderstorm that made it even hotter, remember? It was not nice. Also it is more intimate, comfortable for talking and mingling with old friends. I shouldn't have said intimate, because it has the same amount of room as the warehouse, just nicer. I will be notifing everyone, who has purchased tickets already, of the location change.

There is a bulleted list below for Friday night. I still need everyone to get your tickets soon, I have to let the caterer know by next Friday. Tickets sales have picked up and we still have lots of people who tell me their coming and haven't bought yet, let's go!! Tickets for Sat night are still on sale at the FTC, just call them at 203-259-1036, use my name and you'll get a member discount. People have asked if there is anything to do if they did not want to attend the concert. Well, there is a Classic Car Show with a band and a DJ, at the Brick  Walk Promanade in the Center, with plenty of resturants (that you have discounts for) within walking distance. You also have the Community Theatre and bars, you can get a bunch of friends and meet there. That's it for now, keep comming back for the latest updates. Thanks Jim

Almost forgot, "Reunion Bracelets will be given out Friday afternoon or at the Record Hop, so you can get the discounts at participating resturants listed below. More on that later.
