13) Comments or Suggestions
The Friday and Sunday activities were great opportunities to mix very informally and more intimately. The Saturday evening event was grand, but a bit overwhelming in size. (I don't expect future reunions to be that large, by any means) Would prefer a hotel with food service attached or nearby. Candlewood was nice, but one could starve and the MSU Club only provided food service during weekdays....also very $$$ for the value. Had a great time...got to know several people I never knew before and would have like more time to renew old friendships...but no...I don't want a cruise!!! Keep up the good work! Michael

Probably doesn't need to be as elaborate as "50". DJ for music background, even if not dancing. Pretty hard to beat the "50" so it's ok to back off some of the misc' eg. Golf, tours. ??
- Thompson, (June) James N
 
Had a great time at the 50th look forward to the 55th. Open to what ever the committee feels is right for the majority at that time! Just hope we'll all make it.

I'm still on for reunion committee participation. Will we need a fund raiser? Everyone enjoyed themselves so much that I would hate to change any of it.

50th was great

Keep doing the same thing--If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

I have never come to a reunion...But I would be more interested in a combined school reunion. 5 - 10 years combined. One day.
- Stuart, (June) Sharon K
 
how about combining the dinner with the mixer. we could start the mixer a couple of hours before dinner?
- Shelton, (June) Bill
 
The 50th high school reunion was all and more than we had expected. Sat with Sally Alexander & friends & Nancy Berg. Met some people that attended for the first time. Enjoyed the food, the setting, band, the club, the open bar, wine with dinner. So glad Mary push me to attend. I,d do what ever I could to attend the 55th, even though I don,t golf a fri social hour might be on our agenda. Thanks sooooooooooo much for all your dedicated hard work to pull this off.

I don't have any special items for a reunion, but I'd like to see them happen every five years as we are all getting on in years. It would be nice to see each other while we still can. Thank you Reunion committee, for all the hard work that you have put forth. Santa Ed Barr

The committee did a great job for the 50th. I wish I could be there to give in planning. If I can be of any help from here please don't hesitate to give me a call or e-mail. Suggest that we BYO Glenn (Bud) Buckborough

This was my first reunion, and although I did not participate in all the functions, I certainly enjoyed myself at the mixer and tour. Will certainly plan on attending all aspects of the next one. Those responsible for the event did a GREAT JOB. ----GIL C.

Regarding Month and Location, I have no preference of one over the other -- either month or either location works for me. The 50th was great!! I look forward to the 55th!

I was unable to attend this year, but would like to attend if at all possible. The website with classmate profiles is awesome! You are doing a great job. Nancy
- King(Keish), (June) Nancy A
 
I am pretty flexible on the dates, and anyway, there is no predicting that long in advance. My preference for sitdown dinner is only mild: it worked so well in September that I don't see a need to change.
- Palmer, (June) Patrick E
 
questions w/o answers have no opinion.

This 50th was absolutely superb. Only suggestion is to have the guests stand up or let those in the back know which table they are at so we can greet them personally. We might not recognize them just going around the tables.
- Norris(Sparks), (June) Jeanne L
 
I was unable to attend this year, but I was able to view the allbum and communicate to some of those who did. I would like to thank Mary, with a sense of deep appreciation, for all her effort in bring us all together again. The memories that this effort brought back were incredible. it is good to see that the Class of 1959 developed so many incredable world citizens who have help make a difference. Thank you again for this reunion. Regards to All, Carl & Reiko Mosher
