40th Anniversary Reunion / Re: Other activities during reunion weekend

« Last post by robkarr on July 29, 2008, 09:46:03 PM »

Best place to park/meet is near the Cinearts Theatre which is at the far South end of the center (Santana Row)- and since there are parking lots on both sides of the theater, you should park in the furthest East lot (furthest away from Winchester).  It's that lot that the car gathering is in, and you can park any car there (not in the center of the car guy's area, unless you brought your Ferrari:^). 

If you can't get to Santana Row by 11:30- we'll be at Lynbrook for our picnic/walkabout from 12-1 (roughly).

I think it's a good idea to have a set of cell phone numbers to keep in touch during that weekend.  I'm not crazy about publishing mine on this (or any) interweb.  Soooooooooo, I'll be sending my cell phone number by email to all of the registered attendees just before the event (early in the week of Aug 16).  If you want to have your cell # included in the mailing to be given out, just email it to me (lhs6840th@earthlink.net) before Aug 10 and I'll include it.  If you're leaving your computer connection before that, then email me and I'll give it to you specifically.
Robk.

I hope this is small enough.  Best thing about getting old is having grandchildren.  Here is Gramma Judy (Twitchel) with oldest grandson.

If you are going to meet at Santana Row, can you tell me a more specific location or a cell phone number so I can connect with the group after I get in? I got directions to the shopping center but that's probably not localized enough and there are always flight delays to be considered. Murphy's law WILL no doubt operate. I don't want you standing around waiting for me.

40th Anniversary Reunion / Re: Where are you staying?

I finally got my booking done. I am staying at the Bay Front Inn Saturday night. I will be flying into San Jose Saturday morning, arriving around 10:30am and getting a rental car. Going back to San Jose Sunday evening to stay someplace at the airport (not yet booked) before flying out early Monday morning. I am open to negotiating shared accommodations and travel, if anyone wants to and is still making plans.  If so, it may be easier to call me. 717 627 0435. I haven't been to any other reunions so this should be interesting and fun.

This last May, Grace's boyfriend (now fiancee) took this shot of us in the crowded courtyard at the SFSU graduation for the Apparel Marketing and Design dept. Sonja (23) is in the center, with our son Jesse (30) and daughter Grace (25) with Martha and me.

Keeping in Touch / Sharing pictures

As the webmaster, people have been sending me some pretty cool pictures as current bio updates.  I've felt kind of bad cropping everything down to a 100 pixel high headshot, but felt like that was the appropriate way to do it in an online catalog of roughly 500 classmates.

What I'd like to do here is encourage you to post those pictures in this area of the message board, so we can see the rest of your beautiful family, loved ones, favorite pet, etc.  Here are the basic instructions.


First, if you have the photo online, just use the "insert image" icon (second from left in the icon row above the smileys)
  just select the image url, and then click the icon, which will wrap tags around the url
For photos not online
save a copy, keep the file size below 128K
  that should be plenty big
make sure there is some explanatory text in the main window
click the "additional option" link under the text entry window
click the "choose file" button to select your picture from its location on your hard disk
click the "post" button at the bottom
When the post has been accepted, it will display a thumbnail of the image that people will click on to see the full size.

if you need help, just contact me, and I'll try and talk you through the process.  I know a lot of people don't feel comfortable with these message boards, but I think people will really enjoy this once you take the trouble to post your pix.

Is anyone interested in playing golf on Sunday?  There's a good muni course in Santa Cruz called DeLaveaga:

It's always kicked by butt, but I'm willing to play!
