25th Reunion -- Need Your Ideas!

Our Reunion Team (more on that soon) has started putting together our 25th Reunion weekend.  One of the things we are doing is designing "classes" so classmates can share their interests with everyone.  We would LOVE your input.

Here's our idea -- we would like to have four "levels" of classes . . . from the silly to the serious and everything in between. 

100 Level Activities - activities for everyone

   Maybe a classmate can teach a group dance class, or a crazy science class, or cooking.  Or something else entirely, so long as it is something everyone can do together.

200 Level Activities. - activities aimed at kids

Let's have some classes aimed at the kids who will attend our reunion.  
 
Maybe something future focused:  What's it like to be doctor, build a house, work for a President, write a book, work for a newspaper, climb a mountain, go fly fishing?   Or, maybe something else altogether.
 
What would your kids like to do?   Let us know.

300 level activities. Activities aimed at adults

Book talks, debates about current events, discussions of movies, etc.  Grown up stuff.  What interests you?

400 level activities - seminars on life issues

One thing we share is our stage in life.  Would you like to talk about these sorts of things with people in the class?  Some ideas we have kicked around include:

Dealing with aging parents
Careers in transition
Dealing with educational challenges of our kids 
Avoiding the road to nowhere/are we Tiger Moms and Dads?
 
 
 
At this stage what is important is your feedback.  We need ideas and would like to shape the direction of the reunion with you in mind.  So . . .
 
Please let us know what you think.  
 
Volunteer.

Nominate a classmate.  

We would love to hear from you at happado@hotmail.com.
