Last Chance!

Hopefully everyone realizes by now that tomorrow is the deadline for making your payment for the Saturday night event. So far we have 50 people who are attending and have made their payment, but we're hoping that a few more of you will still be able to join us! Because of the holiday, you won't be able to drop your payment in the mailbox today and expect it to get to us tomorrow, unfortunately. Your only option at this point is to pay with a credit/debit card on the reservations page, so please check it out if you haven't already!

We're so looking forward to seeing old friends and we hope you all are too. If you're not sure if your high school friends are coming, make sure you contact them and encourage them to join us!

Have a wonderful Memorial Day and hopefully we'll see you all in less than two weeks!

One Week Until the Deadline!!

As most of you probably realize, as of today there is only one week left to RSVP for the Saturday night event and make your payment. Even if you RSVPed tentatively several months ago or RSVPed positively on Facebook, we still need to hear from you if you haven’t already paid online or sent a check! If we don’t receive your payment by June 1 (in just 7 days!), you won’t be able to join us for the Saturday night event. We would hate for anyone to miss the event just because they forgot to make their payment.

Although we originally estimated having just over 100 attendees based on the positive responses we received back in October, as of right now we have only 37 people planning to attend our main event on the 12th. We really hope more of you will be able to make it! Please let us know if you're planning to join us by sending us an email at salinacentral1990@gmail.com!

Family Event Details

We hope everyone will be able to join us on Saturday afternoon to enjoy the music, art, food and friends at the River Festival. Unfortunately, the park shelters across the river in Kenwood had already been reserved, so we've decided to make our official meeting place near the Oakdale fountain in the botanical gardens. This area is relatively close to the children's activities and food vendors, has lots of shade, and shouldn't be heavily populated with festival goers. While we couldn't reserve it officially, the organizers do know that we're coming and approved of the location. The map below has the exact area highlighted, so please make a note of this area or print it out (click on the map for a larger image) so you can find everyone! We'll try to have balloons or a banner to make us easier to spot.


We're planning to be at the festival from noon to 5 on Saturday, and the admission buttons are $10 if purchased in advance. Unfortunately, there's no place to buy them online, so you'll have to make a stop at Dillons before heading over to the festival. You can also buy them at the gate for $15, or for just $12 if you take this coupon with you. Thankfully, children 11 and under get in free!

Remember to bring your blankets, bag chairs, footballs and frisbees for a relaxing time with our families!

Five Weeks

It's hard to believe that just 5 weeks from tonight many of us will be getting together to reminisce at the Paramount. As of now, we've invited 145 of our classmates via email and 11 others via Facebook or Classmates.com when we didn't have their email address. Unfortunately, there are still around 40 people who graduated with our class who we haven't been able to reach to let them know about the weekend's events. Next weekend, a classified ad will run in the Salina Journal, which will be the final effort to contact these people. Hopefully any remaining classmates who are interested in attending will able search online for information.

Thanks to those of you who RSVPed immediately and have already sent your payment. We hope to hear from the rest of you before the June 1 deadline. Just three more weeks to RSVP--don't forget!
