I just went to my husband's class reunion. They had some pics that some people sent in from high school, and made a slide show that they showed continuously throughout the night. (At this time I cannot volunteer to make it, but hopefully in the future I may have some free time that I could do the slide show. I can let you know.) They even showed some pics of today.
They also had put up decorations from the 80's that represented their time in high school, ie posters of movies like Risky Business, singers like Rick Springfield, actors like Kirk Cameron, and maybe some pics of fads of our day.
The one thing that disappointed me was the fact that they didn't have any food. For the price that was paid I thought we were going out for a nice dinner too. I hope we have that. |

| It may sound obvious but a friend of mine went to a reunion and they did not have name tags. She said it was so hard trying to guess who someone was based on how they look now. They also complained the music was way to loud and you could not really talk and catch up. Hope this helps. |

| Last night we went to my husbands 20 yr reunion. They had peel and stick name tags that had their year book picture, it was funny to see how everyone had changed. The spouses name tags said your name and then wife/husband of ____. There was a cocktail hour that helped to break the ice- people moved through the room and figured out who they remembered and started getting caught up. They also had a buffet which gave more opportunity to chat with different people and the dj kept the music at a level you could hear and talk without having to yell. Nothing over the top but everyone seemed to really be enjoying themselves. |

I went to my husband's 20 year as well and it was boring. The DJ played ALL the hits from the 80's and they had cheesy name tags with just your name on it. Making different ones for spouses is a good idea. Noone knew if I was the grad or a spouse. Having a photo thing, whether it is a slide show, movie or something would be a great idea. If anyone has pics, send them to Terri!
