REUNION DATES SET-OCTOBER 28, 29 - 30
05/09/05     Brad Smart  (1985)      brad@olfinishing.com
With much consideration, I have decided to have our 20th reunion the weekend of the homecoming football game. Please mark your calendars and plan on attending. Also, anyone you see or talk to, please inform them as well.

The success of our 10th and the things we were able to do was because of the fundraising activities that the commitee did. This time I am considering maybe selling raffle tickets. This may sound cheesy, but it could be a good way of raising money to help us off set costs. Maybe each classmate sell 40-$5 tickets. What do ya'll think?

More info to follow...

Brad

Raffle tickets sounds good. The turn out for the 10th reunion was good but I know that this word of mouth thing won't work too hot. This site is great, but only probably 35-45% of the classmates are using it or have access to it. So.......what about the other folks?

Cheryl,

From most of the feedback I have gotten, most classmates don't know about this site. I think if we go out of our way to inform classmates about the site, it can be a great source of info. Also, regardless of what we say or do alot of classmates have absolutely no interest in attending our reunion or communicating with their former classmates. That's just a fact!

What about putting something in the Bulletin with the dates, contact information, etc. and ultimately sending people to this website? I think even those who do not want to or can't come would be inclined to visit the website. Also, some people read the Martinsville Bulletin online - even when they are long gone from Martinsville.

Thanks for putting it together. See you for homecomming. I will try and reach out to all that I know.

Brad....I don't think as many people will hear about the reunion through this website or by word of mouth....I would be more than happy to help send out anything by mail...get in touch with me! (276)673-5059

Brad,
Brad,

Again...thanks for your leadership and work on this!
I'm not sure how much success an out-of-towner such as me would have selling raffle tickets. Wouldn't the price that each person/couple pays to attend the event offset costs? What else do we need fundraising for??? The Notices in the Bulletin should alert classmates and/or their families who still live in the 'Ville. Also the reader board at school could possibly be used.
Let me know if I can help from afar!!!

Hi Brad,

I just moved back to the area from the NY area with my husband and two kids. I was looking for information on the reunion. A friend told me there was something in the paper about an early August date. I am assuming this October date is correct. I am local and offering assistance. I live in Chatmoss and my phone number is 632-0638.
