several "Optional" events that are voluntary and require additional
fees should you wish to participate. To sign up for any of
these "Optional" events, please fill out the "Optional
Event Form".
There are many amenities available at The Orleans, including bowling, movie
theaters, free shuttle to the Strip, lots of lounges with live entertainment,
swimming pool, spa, etc.
IN CONCLUSION:
Make plans to be there. "You
are the Reunion!!!" Opportunities to reconnect with
friends and add to the memories we all shared are priceless! Secondly,
make your room reservations early. Please don't wait until the very last
minute as we are only able to secure the group's contracted rates for a limited
number of rooms, and for a limited amount of time.
And last,
but not least, PLEEEEAAAAASE send in your Registration Form and fees as
soon as possible, as much of our planning relies on your
early commitment.
After
completing the above assignment, go through your attic, basement, or garage and
dig out those pictures, yearbooks, and mementos from Sasebo to share with all of
us at the Reunion. We are also planning to hold a
"silent auction" to raise $ to offset our costs. If you have any questions,
concerns, or would like to help with the Reunion, call John
Gordon at (949) 458-2967, e-mail fenwayjack@cox.net,
or Jo Wilson Emerson at (651) 653-0731, e-mail wjwe@aol.com
.
The
word has gone out to the citizens of Las Vegas..."It's Sasebo
time!" Regardless of when you were in Sasebo, whether you were a
student, teacher, parent, in the Service, or related to, or just a friend to any of the aforementioned, come and
celebrate the magic that was Sasebo!! P.S. Your family and
friends have listened to you talk about Sasebo for many years. Now's the
chance to bring them with you so they can see and experience first-hand what
made that time in your life so special. Bring your spouses, companions,
parents, children, relatives and friends. Our
scheduled Reunion events are designed to interest all of them, and if that
isn't enough, they'll have the rest of Las Vegas to keep them entertained.
