Room Reservations at the Hilton:

As part of Catering and Rooms Contract with the Hilton Palm Beach Airport for our 50th Year Reunion we have a 9 room commitment at a group rate of $89 plus 13% tax. Those classmates who made prior reservations for the previous June 26 & June27th reunion dates should have received notification directly from the Hilton yesterday that your reservations were automatically changed to correspond with the November 20 & November 21st event dates.

There are currently only 2 more rooms available under our group reservation commitment. There is no guarantee that the hotel will be willing to extend our reunion discounted rate beyond our commitment. For those classmates that have made the decision to attend the reunion and need overnight accomodations, I recommend that you go ahead and make your reservation before our total allotment of rooms are booked.

To make your reservation, the new booking link is:

We are happy to share that Tom Goodrich and his wife Marque are the latest classmate and spouse to have sent in their payment to attend our 50th Year Class Reunion on November 20th & 21st. 

The new deadline for payment to attend the reunion is Monday October 19th. Payments made between now and the extended deadline are greatly appreciated as they will provide the reunion committee with the added financial assurance that the reunion is proceeding as budgeted and provide the required continuing financial resources for the disbursement of reunion expenditures in the coming months. 

To keep everyone appraised going forward,  I plan  to post weekly updates of classmates who have committed to attend as their payment is received.

At this time, I would also like to express my special thanks to the other 18 classmates, spouses and guests who previously paid to attend:

Norma White Wyngate

Hal T. Wyngate

Tom Parker

Gary Tenczar

Jack Courtney

Virginia Brooks

Christine Zabelny Guderyon

Fran Gordon Benz

Marsha Kidd-Collins

Diane Finch

Change of Reunion Dates:

In the current climate of uncertainty due to COVID 19 and the good possibility of restrictions on group gatherings being extended, the Reunion Committee has decided to postpone our scheduled 50th Year Reunion Events from June 26 & 27 to November 20 & November 21, 2020.

The November 20 & 21, 2020 rescheduled dates were chosen in light of comments received from out of town classmates who were expressing apprehension of having to make a decision to attend the reunion in late June. The Reunion Committee was also under a deadline to make a decision as to the Hilton's available alternative dates in 2020, otherwise, there was a risk that we wouldn't be able to hold the event this year.

The Reunion Committee trusts that by delaying the reunion dates until late November will provide classmates with additional time needed to decide without any of the current concerns.  We truly look forward to seeing everyone and celebrating our 50th Year Class Reunion with a renewed spirit of life after COVID 19.

In the meantime, Stay Safe and God Bless everyone!
