A few key items from last night's meeting:
* We contacted the HS, and they are pretty sure we're a go for either August 6 or 7. If one day is better than the other in terms of availability, we'll shuffle the BBQ day. No cost to rent, just a $25/hour cleanup fee for the janitor (kept to a minimum if we clean up the confetti/silly string/toilet paper/raw eggs/bubble residue/mud pit ourselves).
* For the BBQ, we're thinking the cost of burgers/hot dogs and paper products will be included in the admission cost, then we'll potluck the side dishes. For the evening at PV, we're thinking finger foods ranging from mini sandwiches to wraps to chips and salsa to a giant pile of cocktail shrimp (dessert, too, of course).
* Factoring in all our projected costs, including the food for both days, we think the price per person will be around $15 per person. It will help if we can do e-invites rather than a printed version.
* Colt says Green Springs park will be the best option. It's very close to the HS, and it has everything we need: pavilion, BBQs, splash pad, etc. It's $25 to rent it out.
* Mik'L is going through her mom's vast trove of old HS videos...
* Next step is to shape up the agenda for the night at the HS. We're taking suggestions for games, activities, etc. We don't want to structure the whole evening because we want people to mingle, but we want enough structure to keep things interesting.
* Next meeting: Tuesday, Feb. 2, 2010 at my house.

Oh, we also have a Google spreadsheet set up to gather contact info on classmates. Send me your e-mail address and I'll give you permissions to it so you can add yourself and anyone else you know. (If nothing else, we need valid e-mail addresses for everyone we can find.)
