Location for the 40th Reunion Friday Night Reception - Posted 05/08/09

The Friday Night Reception for the 40th Reunion is planned for the 6th Floor Pool Deck at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort. To make sure the pool deck would be the ideal setting for the kick off to the 40th Reunion the committee visited the Hilton on Thursday night May 7, 2009. The pool deck is located on the east side of the Hilton over looking A1A and the Fort Lauderdale Beach. The deck is large with ample room for the reception. There is a great view from the pool deck of A1A and the beach. It will be warm in July but the ocean breeze will help keep everyone cool. I would even suggest bring a windbreaker just in case you start to feel a chill. We do have a back up plan just in case the weather turns bad.

 

Next Meeting 05/07/09 at Hilton - Posted 05/05/09

The committee will be meeting on Thursday May 7, 2009 at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort.  The Hilton has a pool side party on Thursday night and the committee wants to go and see if the 40th Reunion Friday Night Reception should be held on the Hilton outside pool deck. The pool deck is on the 6th floor of the Hilton over looking A1A and the Fort Lauderdale Beach. The committee is hoping this will be the ideal setting for the first night of the reunion. We are planning on showing up at the Hilton around 7:00 PM and will stay until at lease 9:00 PM. The Hilton is located at 505 North Fort Lauderdale Beach Blvd. We would like to invite everyone who is free on Thursday night to show up and check out the hotel.

Multi-Class Get Together - Posted 05/04/09

On May 02, 2009 the 4th Annual Multi-Class Get-Together for Stranahan Alumni was held at the Quarterdeck Seafood Bar on Cordova Road in Fort Lauderdale. The reunion was attended by more than 600 Stranahan Alumni and guest from 1963 to 2004. Including the following alumni and spouses from the Class of 1969: Bill Thixton, Bob Simac, Sue Artus-Simac (SHS 70), Bonnie Rogers, Cathy Reeves-Thixton, Chuck Forum, Cindy Plummer, Eric Benson, June Kannigiser-Leaman, Walter Leaman (SHS 66), Ken Fernandez, Linda Schryver, Mary Maida-Benson, Mary Walsh-Keefe, Ricky Keefe (SHS68), Neena Mohnani, Steve Coleman, Sue Kick-Jones, and Tom Griffey.  If you attend the get together and I do not have you on the list please e-mail me.  This is an annual event which is held in May so please mark you calendar and make plans to attend next year.  I will post information about the 5th Get Together when I receive it.

Stranahan Class of 1969 on Facebook - Posted 05/01/09

I am sure most of you have heard about the social networking website FaceBook.com. For the most part social networking site members are in there teens and early 20s. But that does not mean that thought of us in the 50+ group are not participating in social networking sites such as Facebook. The fact is Fackbook has around 400 members from the Stranahan High School classes of 1967 to 1971 and our class has over 85 members on Facebook. This number is growing every week.

I was thinking that as we get closer to the 40th Reunion many of us Dragons are starting to think about our friends from High School and wonder what they are up to now. The reunion in July will be a great way to get reacquainted but it will be hard to catch up with everyone who is attending the reunion in just three days. Why not get a head start by joining Facebook now and start to reconnect before the reunion. Also many classmates have there current photo on Facebook so it will be easier to identify them at the reunion. It is free to join Facebook. If you do decide to join make sure to include Stranahan High School Class of 1969 as your High School in your profile. This will make it easier for other classmates to find you on Facebook.

 Golf Event Saturday 07/25/09 - Posted 03/27/09

Several classmates have indicated an interest in a golf outing on Saturday July 25th in conjunction with our reunion weekend.  Presently, we have been in contact with 3 separate golf courses to obtain information for an outing that will be a convenient location and priced competitively.  The courses for those of you familiar with the Broward area are Plantation Preserve, Ft. Lauderdale Country Club and Palm-Aire  Country Club (Sabal, Palm, Oaks & Cypress courses).   We are anticipating an 11:00am start to allow plenty of time for returning to hotels or home to get ready for the evening event at the Hilton.

 In order for us to be able to negotiate a special rate and schedule tee times we will need to have a “confirmed & paid” number of those playing by June 15th.   We currently have approximately 16 people that have indicated they wish to play.   Considering the current number, we will be on a staggered tee time basis. (Currently for 4 foursomes)   However, if we can increase this number to 36 people we most likely could arrange a “shotgun” start (everyone tees off at the same time) allowing everyone to finish at the same time.

At this point we do not have a definite price but it is anticipated to be in the $48-$70 price range per person which would include a box lunch or buffet depending on the course. Additionally, this event can be in a tournament format (such as scramble) or just everyone enjoying a round of golf.  As we move closer to the date of the event we will solicit handicaps, playing group requests, etc. as appropriate.  In the meantime please email your preferences on the course and format if you intend to play.  Also, if you have any ideas on how to make the golf outing more enjoyable, your suggestions are welcome.  You can e-mail Mike Lynch at stranahan69@hotmail.com.

REMEMBER THE DEADLINE DATE OF JUNE 15TH FOR PAYMENT & CONFIRMATION OF YOUR WISH TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS EVENT.

Attire for the 40th Reunion  - Posted 03/05/09

The committee would like the atmosphere for the 40th Reunion to be relaxed.  One way to accomplish this goal is to select a more relaxed dress code then what we have had at previous reunions.  On Friday night we are hoping to have the Welcoming reception on the 6th floor pool deck at the Hilton overlooking A1A and Fort Lauderdale Beach.  The committee feels that being outside the dress code for Friday night should be Casual: Slacks, jeans, shorts, Polo Shirts, T-shirts and other casual looks are appropriate.  Saturday night Buffet Dinner and Dance will be held in the Hilton Grand Ballroom on the first floor.  The committee decided that Saturday night should be a little more dressy but relaxed.  The dress code for the buffet dinner and dance will be Resorts Casual: Evening resort attire for men would be nice slacks, polo shirts, button down shirts, nice shoes or sandals, with the option of wearing a sport coat. For women: nice pants, skorts, skirts, nice top, casual dress, sundress, nice sandals or casual shoes. The length of the skirt or dress is knee length or longer.
