Reunion Info. Part 2

There are approximately 5 tickets still available to purchase. First come, first serve.

Midway:
The dress attire at the Midway is semi-formal to the point of whatever makes you comfortable. We want you to be comfortable but at the same time this is a sit-down banquet. :)
(...casually semi-formal might be a good way to put it...)

Luau:
Due to safety reasons, please no pets at the park, unless the pets are kept in a seperate area. Thank you.

This is at a park location so please bring your lawn chairs or blankets to get comfy. If you have extra, please bring those to help out the out-of-towners.
Also, if you would like to bring any outdoor activities as well. Volleyball, football, etc.

Address and directions are posted below.

Again, any questions...email me (Marie Sugrue) at yohi90@yahoo.com

Reunion Information

Hi all! Reunion coming up in just a couple of days! Hope to see you all there!

Midway Parking:
The parking lot that is at the Midway pier is not run by the Midway so it is public parking. Friday night there is a Padres baseball game that starts at 7:05pm. The baseball stadium is not that far from the Midway. I suggest carpooling or trying to get there as early as possible to avoid having to park far. The parking at the pier also cost approximately $8 for the night. There is metered parking on the outskirts of the pier that is free after 6pm, however, those might be taken from the baseball fans. Please plan on being on the Midway no later than 6:30pm to be able to sign in and get situated.

For all out-of-towners, San Diego's weather has been hot and sunny as usual. Most likely a summery short sleeved shirt/blouse will do on the Midway. However, as we are literally on the water, it does tend to get a little breezy and nippy once the sun sets. I suggest dressing in layers or bring a light jacket/sweater that you can add once the night kicks in, in case needed. You also do not want to die of heat before the sun sets. :)

There will be a cash bar (again, carpooling would be nice!).

If there is anything that you're wondering or maybe I could try to help with, feel free to email me at yohi90@yahoo.com

Need one more favor!

If anyone has a picture of Tammy Olsen c/o 85 or 86 and Mrs. Sattre, could you please send it to me for our remembrance page. Would really appreciate it and wouldn't want them not to have their picture in our program.

Thanks in advance!
