That was the question when 10 classmates got together after our lives have taken us all over the globe and back these past 19 years. What were we doing? Kicking off planning our 20-year Campo Class Reunion!
Who would have thought we’d recognize each other at first glance, possibly have even more in common, and have tons of fun in one afternoon talking about getting the gang back together. I mean the WHOLE gang–not just my gang or your gang or another gang.
We don’t have all the details yet, but we promise to plan a weekend next fall (Dates TBD) that includes:
• an opportunity to share a cocktail with an old friend
• possibly head back to our old stomping grounds on campus or take in a campo football game
• introduce family or spouses at a day time event
• opportunities to attend one event or attend them all
What we need right now is help spreading the word and building an invite list for the 262 classmates that shared our graduation stage.
While we build our event website and work out details, this facebook group called Campolindo Class of 1990 and this blog will serve as our primary communication channel. I’ll be tweeting updates from @reillyjacobs on twitter and using a hashtag #campo90 if you’d like to set a search and keep in touch that way. So bookmark this page and spread the word.
We promise:
This isn’t the 5 year where someone shows off a fancy business card, or the 10 year where you prove how much you still party (from what I heard), or the 15 year where you spent more time with a few people but still missed catching up with some important friends.
This is our 20-year reunion, and we’ve all been through a lot by now. No pretenses, we’ve survived: moving, traveling, dating, success, grad school, marriage, pregnancy, failures, career changes, cancer, grief, achievements, family, infertility, divorce, establishing home, economic highs and lows, war, earthquakes, and all around life-quakes. We’ve all changed and grown, so what do you say….will you meet me there?
