Another Fun Alumni Event...

New pics added to flickr from last night! We had 16 Alumni attend + some guests. I've uploaded some pics that I took. If anyone has any they'd like to share, please e-mail them to me. We started at Elliott BAy & ended up at Mick Kelly's. We'd like to make this an annual event. We will keep you posted!
Have an amazing rest of your summer!

Something NEW*****

I just created a flickr account for our alumni pics!!! I'm limited to how many pics I can post for now, so the ones I put up first were from the pre-reunion party last year.
Find it at: www.flickr.com/photos/jfkclassof1988/
I've been trying to upload a slideshow for the blog home page, but it fails to pull up our account. Grrr. So until THAT works, please click on the link.
ENJOY!!!

Social Media:

Hmmm. Social media has its advantages. However, if you are viewing these sites on a PC, be sure to have GREAT anti-virus software, but beware. We have employees where I work that used to check their Facebooks on our non-business computer. We have since had to ban these sites because even with GREAT software, some viruses just snuck through. This can create a nightmare situation, and a heavy cost to fix.

Although I now use a MAC at home, for those who have asked, NO I personally do NOT have a Facebook page. I think I signed up for one before the reunion last year, but have no recollection of the name I used, password, etc. I have since changed my personal e-mail too, so have no way to retrieve it, and have NO intention of signing up for one. I simply don't have the time.

I do know that many of you DO have one, and if you are comfortable with these types of programs, I encourage you to make "friends" with our alumni so that you can continue to keep in touch.

All the best,
Heather

This Saturday!!!

I can't believe it's already August! Hope everyone enjoyed the July HEAT wave, and now August 8th is a day away! WOW. Time really does fly by. Remember, the crew is providing limited food for the event with some of our leftover funds from last year! Hope to see you!!

2009 Summer EVENT!

One month from TODAY!!!
August 8th...
6:30-12...
Elliott Bay Brewery in Burien...
BE THERE!!!!
We've reserved the same room (I think), and we'll be there to mingle (& drink & eat too!) The "book" of Alumni will not be ready. (Unfortunately, the printer & I just couldn't coordinate to get it done in time.)
It will still be a fun evening, so stop by for a bit and say "Hi".

We did send out a reminder e-mail to those who are on our Alumni-list. If you didn't get one, & would like to be added to our list, please let us know by leaving a comment below.

See you on the 8th!

Are you done yet???

Hope everyone is doing well!
Just got an e-mail asking if the booklet is done yet...And the answer is still "No" :(
Work, among other things, keeps getting in the way unfortunately. With the get-together approaching, I do hope to have it done, and to the printer, with enough time to have them available then.
I'll keep you posted.

Is it summer yet???

I know they said March came in like a lion, but seriously...aren't you all ready for summer? We definately are, and with the thought of summer coming, we are planning an informal get together for local alums. Date and place TBA. We will keep you posted via this blog and we will also send out a mass e-mail for those of you we have on file.
I've checked into creating a facebook/myspace page to keep in touch with people, but since they are the WORST places to attract spam and viruses, I've decided against it. So, I hope there are still at least a few people who view this blog and can get the info when we post it.
We will also let the alumni association at JFK know, and have them post it on their site.
Happy Friday the 13th!!!

OMG...It's almost February!!!

Well...I can't believe it's been 6 months. I feel as though I've blinked once, and let time fly by. I still look back and think, "Holy %^*#!!! I can't believe it's been 20 years, and I can't believe the event has come and gone."
As for any news to report...there's nothing from our end. We would love for this site to remain 'active', but we just aren't getting many responses, or e-mails. I have forwarded on requests for contact info for those of you who have asked. If you still need that type of info, let me know. I have switched my home computer to a MAC, and have put our publication on hold, so that I can get better aquainted with the new system. (No, I haven't forgot about it.) More details on that to come...
We have a wonderful account set up with some 'seed money' for the next alumni who would like to step up to plan our next event...ANY TAKERS????
