Dear Classmates,

We are happy to be planning our 30-year class reunion for the Madison High School Class of 1979! Included in this document is your invite, this letter, directions to the Crowne Plaza, dinner menu and registration form with payment instructions.

IMPORTANT: We are NOT “snail mailing” invites, so we NEED YOUR help in forwarding this information to your class of ’79 contacts. We have a spreadsheet of all 1979 graduates (made from the 1979 yearbook and used for the 20-year reunion) and we have several volunteers who have offered to help try and contact all of the alums.

Once you receive this, please forward to any classmates that you have contact information for! Please contact us with any e-mail addresses you have for other classmates so we can get this information to them and update the spreadsheet. If you would like to help contact people, please contact us!

Next, if you want to attend, complete the registration and submit your payment via credit card or cashier’s check. Credit cards and checks will not be processed until after the reunion. If you would like to reserve one of the blocked rooms, be sure to contact the Crowne Plaza per the instructions included.

Regarding attire: Feel free to wear anything: a Halloween costume, or something from the seventies, or something contemporary, casual or formal. To each their own! The hotel pool is open 24 hours and we’re having an optional late pajama party, so bring your swimwear and pajamas!

Please don’t delay in spreading the word. The reunion is coming up fast and we want to see all of our classmates! Also, please contact us if you know a DJ that might be willing to volunteer their services.

Sincerely,

Sherri Farley-Povolo and Steve Cobus

James Madison Class of ‘79
