Reunion Planning Tips

  • Consider your style and budget.
  • Consider a central place easily accessible to most attendees.
  • Select a date that is good for as many attendees as possible.
  • Make sure you see the actual room or location where your event(s) will take place.
  • Discuss the menu selections and per person cost. Does it include tax and service charge?
  • Food stations and buffets encourage people to get up and mix and mingle more than a sit-down, served meal.
  • Find out what equipment is included and what would be extra. How much is it?
  • Know exactly how long you may have at the facilities: when you can access the site prior for decorating and set up and when you have to end your event. Make sure this time is in writing from site coordinator.
  • What time can you gain access to the room to decorate? What are decorating restrictions?
  • Are there discounts on certain days of the week?
  • Can you bring in your own caterer or do you need to use theirs?
  • Is a security deposit required? If so, how much? When is it refundable?
  • Have a memoriam of those that you have lost in your class for all to see.
  • If you have a classmate that is serving overseas, have something for that classmate stating Bob Jones could not be here tonight with us because he is currently serving our country....
