The theme for this reunion is "Find Your Way Back" and held at the Tall Oaks Lodge, off the Spillway Road. The Tall Oaks Lodge is a beautiful, rustic setting overlooking Lake D'Arbonne and the perfect setting for you and your friends to reminisce as ou enjoy your dinner of home-style food catered by LBK's Restaurant. And just when you think it can't get any better, you will enjoy top hits from your high school days all night long courtesy of our reunion DJ. Yes, dinner AND dancing.

Note:
The newsletter was mailed out with directions to the reunion. The directions were taken from one of the online maps website, but recently we tried to follow the directions to verify the map - and guess what? We couldn't find one of the roads listed. So....oops!!! So how is everyone going to find the reunion? Don't worry - we'll have signs and balloons at each turn.

But FYI - here is how we have been driving to the lodge.

DIRECTIONS
Turn down the Spillway Road (like you are going to the Spillway). After you pass the old Massingale's store (which is now a house), look for Wildwood Road on the right. This road connects at a sharp angle, so you have to turn sharp. Just a stone's throw down the road, you will see Upsy Downsy Road. It's a "hilly" dirt road. Another stone's throw and you will see the Lodge on the left near the water. If you are reading this - tell your buddy, okay?

And I just wanted to share a little personal reunion story. It turns out the one of the owners of the Lodge is the mother of one of my old friends who used to live in Monroe. Mitzi just happened to be in town Easter weekend, so she met us at the lodge to show us around. I haven't seen her since 1987! It's funny how one "reunion" led to another.



Check back soon for more news. Don't forget - you have about 3 weeks let to get your registration sent in. And make sure you tell your buddy to get theirs in! If you have any photos from high school - please send in the scans. We'd love to use them on a photo DVD.
