More plans....

Here's the deal. In keeping with the tradition of our class we're doing a casual, low-key reunion:

Come to the alumni tailgate party at Giant Relay Day (schedule in previous post--on campus around 4:30 PM).

Later we'll meet at the Uptown Tavern on the porch at 7:00 PM (Map of 538 E 17th Ave, Denver, CO 80218). Pay as you go.

On Saturday, we'll have a class of 1998 table at Chris Babbs's retirement dinner (see details in previous post--we've got a special discounted rate).

Come to any or all of these events--we're looking forward to seeing everyone.

Wow.

Hard as it may be to believe, it’s been a decade since that snowy day in June (!) when we all headed off to new adventures.

For many of us those ten years were filled with school, work, travel, and what else?

It’s time for show and tell! The festivities start on Giant Relay Day, May 30. What are the reunion festivities you might ask? An excellent question—answers TBD.

I’ll update this blog as the answers present themselves. For now, please let everyone know what you’ve been up to—either post comments to the blog or e-mail me something to post so your words will be front and center.

Hope to see you all in a few weeks!
