Your reunion committee conferenced this evening and have decided to cancel the country club event. We will however, still be having a get together at Richard Sanchez' house which is located across the street from the country club. Rich is opening his home to us from 3pm until we drop. We will no longer be meeting Friday night. We need the time to prepare for Saturday. The cost will now be $25 per person. The Paypal link has been removed to avoid the small fee paypal was charging for each transaction. Payment can now be made directly to Denise Escobedo. I will private message you my address when you send me your confirmation. To date, we have 23 classmates plus their guests who will be in attendance. We will have catered food, wine, beer, water and soda. Please mail your payment as soon as possible so we can start purchasing necessities. We have a great crowd so far. Hope you can join us........Denise

Deadline to purchase tickets

Our reunion is fast approaching. Final payment and headcount is due 8 days prior to the event. To avoid any unforeseen problems the deadline to purchase your reunion tickets is April 20th. Tickets will NOT be sold at the door. Every person in attendance must purchase a ticket. Country club personnel will do a headcount several times throughout our stay and we will be charged for each person over our final count. We will begin our 3 day adventure at the VBar (located in the Venetian) on Friday night. The bar opens at 5pm and will remain open until 3am. Feel free to message me if you have any questions......Denise
