We're Launched!

Lakenheath High School's Class of 1977 is planning a 30-year reunion for August of 2007, and this is the blog that will bring you all the latest news and information about it.

Your fearless reunion committee (Lee Herrera '77, Donna Lopez Powers '77 and Kelly Russell '77 to name a few) had such a fantastic time in Las Vegas (thank you '76ers!). We still have a healthy case of reunion after-glow, and we are already in the final stages of negotiation with the Melrose Hotel in Washington, D.C. To check out their website click here.

The rates for double occupancy are $129/with one “American style” breakfast included/ $139 with two breakfasts/ $149 with three/ etc. This is a fantastic rate to stay in our Nation’s Capitol and to celebrate the big 30! We've also secured a great rate on parking...only $10 + tax/ per night (usually it is $25). There are three airports in the area--Dulles (only 15 minutes away), Reagan National (even closer), and Baltimore (for those of us who have succumbed to Southwest Airlines).

We need some feedback regarding the date. We have two options: August 9-11, 2007 or August 16-18, 2007. Please post a comment on this blog with your preference by Friday, July 14. Or e-mail us at Lakenheath77@gmail.com.

No matter what year we graduated and no matter where we meet next, we have a bond that we share from living in England in the 1970s. We hope to see you next August in D.C.!
