Fellow classmates:

Over the past few months, there has been very limited response to the suggestion for scheduling an Upsala College Class of 1969 50^th year reunion get-together.  As a result, I am hesitant to begin the labor of elaborate planning when I am skeptical about the results.

Instead,   I would like to step forward and offer an idea for a Southern States reunion.  I offer my home in Palm Beach Gardens Florida as the venue for up to 20 or so attendees, and, if the response is greater, I will arrange something at our Clubhouse. Of course, spouses and guests would be included if desired.

I would like to propose two possible dates, and I ask that you respond with :

1. Whether you are interested at all
2. Which date would you prefer, or advise if either date is OK
3. Would you be willing to pay up to $50 per person ONLY if the Clubhouse is needed, or about $20 per person if the reunion stays small and we do it at our home. How many might attend?
4. OR, if you are not interested in coming to Florida at all, and you would like to offer your home for a similar arrangement in some other location, please let me know.

Dear Class of 69

My apologies for a long period of absence from UpsalaCollege69 website activity.  I have just completed a 6-month renovation on our new home in Palm Beach Gardens Florida which hopefully will be our final home to last throughout our retirement years. It has been an all-consuming project requiring a full-time commitment.

Our 50^th Graduation Anniversary is here, but I have received ONLY ONE inquiry about a class reunion.

I was thinking of a date in May… but Where?  14 of our classmates live in Florida. Is anyone interested in one down here?  I would be happy to host.

Or, would you prefer to try one up North – I am sure for our small group it would not be difficult to quickly put together a dinner date. Of course, spouses would be included.

BUT I NEED TO KNOW IF YOU ARE TRULY INTERESTED.   PLEASE POST A RESPONSE TO THE CLASS AND VOICE YOUR OPINION.

Despite being online for almost 4 years now, our website has disappointingly only acquired 42 classmates. No active current mailing list exists for our class. Please help us gather more steam.  If you have contact with any classmates, please direct them to our website www.upsalacollege69.com .  We could especially use some assistance from any Fraternities or Sororities that are still active.
