Catonsville High School

Class of ’64 Reunion Committee

Minutes – June 8, 2009

 

The Catonsville Senior High School Class of 1964 Reunion Committee met on Monday June 8, 2009 at the Caton Tavern, area known as the “Junction” (I guess it was called that because the #8 turned around there).  Those in attendance were Ruth Noland, Paulette Hammond, Cathy Johnson, Don Hands, Jim Wich, Dennis Colson, Nils Lehneis, Wayne Swift and Rick Webb.

 

As we get closer there appears to be less that needs to be done other then confirmation of those items already discussed.

 

Mailings

 

·         301 invitations have been mailed.  Of those 21 have been returned with a bad address.  Those have been researched to include follow up contact by email and telephone calls, but generally to no avail.

·         Within the next week a broadcast email will be sent out as a reminder, but encouraging classmates to check with fellow classmates that they keep in touch with to see if they’ve receive an invitation.  If not, to encourage them to email Rick Webb rwebb@affcu.org with their current contact information.  We have over 200 lost souls.

 

Website

 

·         The invitation will be added to the website

·         Emphasis will be added to check the missing classmates list to see if we can’t shorten that list

 

Saturday Picnic

 

·         Cost to enter the Park.  Ahhhhhhh the benefits of getting older.  The $2 per person Park Entrance Fee will be waived for anyone that is 62 or older . . . that should be all of us.  Should you come with that younger spouse or jailbait, you might want to consider hiding them in the trunk as you did when going to Edmondson Drive-In.

·         We will be in Pavilion #576 and we’ve been told that we must leave by sunset which will be around 6:58 pm.  Anyone wanting to protest the authorities can do so at your own risk . . .maybe some bra burning might work?

·         Ed wasn’t able to make this meeting but we’re depending on him for sports equipment and name tags.

 

Golf

 

·         More to come, so watch the website www.catonsville1964.com. Danny Eckman with the help of Charlie Rittenhouse are making plans as we “speak” with the most significant decision being the number of allowable mulligans.  I’d vote for one for every five years since we graduated or perhaps one for each verifiable operation since graduation.

 

Responses

 

·         Responses are coming in.  Steiny is putting together the Reunion Book

·         We’re encouraging everyone to give us their suggestion for the 50^th which is included on the invitation response.

 

Next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday July 8^th at 11:45 at Dimitri’s Restaurant, 2205 Frederick Road @ Thistle Road.  Didn’t we have a teacher “caught” on Thistle Road?  I think Dimitri’s might have been called the “8 Mile House”?  Let Rick know if you will be attending in order to reserve table(s). 

 

Respectfully submitted,

Rick Webb
