Julie, I knew that mentioning the liquor might run low would catch some people's attention!!! :) Obviously SOME things haven't changed! Thanks to everyone who has gotten their money in. It has been fun to get notes from some of you (and I mean that for everyone who has enclosed a note). To those of you who haven't gotten your money in...What are you waiting for?? You know it's going to be fun! All you GR dwellers don't think you can get by w/out sending your $$. We need headcounts as Julie said. You guys have no excuse for not coming, so get your buts in gear!! :)

comment by Julie Jurgens-Shimek

I see the way to get your attention is to mention the amount of beer available depending on our RSVP numbers. Never the less, whatever problems should arise I realize that when it all boils down to it, it really is Mike Hare's fault. Send in your RSVP's and email Gordy with the tunes you want to hear for Saturday night- Let's do some chatter about Saturday AM...are we wanting to meet at Nesbitt Island and drop a keg? Or am I going over board? I really rarely drink beer, however would be willing to throw some $ at a keg to help the cause. How many people are planning to gather on Sat on the lake? I have had many emails, and much chatter however it would be great to have some better ideas as to numbers. I have been told that we can gather on the island, large gatherings are frowned upon if they get out of hand. So for every frown you see flash them a smile to balence it out and keep your hands in line :)

I received the email too & thought oooooh boy the natives are going to get restless!!!! Tony just proves my point! :)

comment by Tony Epple

I just got an email from Julie that all of you recieved. If we run out of beer because some of you failed to RSVP I'm going to be one unhappy camper. I would have to take out my fustration on Mike Hare.

comment by ron feltus

comment by Michelle Grubb Albrecht

Hey everyone! I know I am not th only one with pictures from jr. high/high school!! Send in your pics!! And, if you know anyone who has not registered keep hounding them until they do!!!! My husband has his 20 yr this summer also, and he is in charge of his website. Their class is using the guestbook to banter back and forth and it is a riot!! Hope to see a record turn out from our class!!

comment by Julia Larson Konsor

WOW! I feel like I am late for an important date! I just found the website today! Thank you for all your planning & stratergizing! Hopefully I am off "the List" as I did register. Keep in touch, Julia :)

comment by Jodiah Nelson

Wow, classmates.com reminded me of you all. I left senior year for Cali and ended up staying for awhile. I stayed in touch for awhile with Matt Booth after he took me to my flight outta Minneapolis. But havent seen him since. Hope you all have fun!

comment by Kathy Nevins (Wallace)

Wow! I'm impressed with the web site. I wasn't able to make it to any reunions and this is a great way to start thinking about all the people I lost touch with. I'm planning on being there in August. Thanks Julie and Craig.

comment by Michelle Kostka

How time flys! Julie and Craig WOW nice web site! This is fun and makes me smile. I plan to see you all in August.

comment by cathy perrington (rancourt)

Hi every one. Julie your doing a great job. Thanks.

comment by Julie Jurgens-Shimek

Hey Class, Just a quick message. I have been contacted by dozens of classmates looking for people and contact information to classmates. For so many I have that contact info. I have decided that for privacy reasons I will not be giving this information out to people. I feel that if you wish to be contacted you will register and provide a contact ( email is all we offer for info and it is only a link not your email address )-(open). Please keep this in mind as you visit the site or or have a contact to a classmate not yet registered. People are searcing for one another and would like to chat. I feel bad that for many I have the contact info however feel that I can not / should not give that info out. Just a bit of information I wished to pass along. In closing as always.....please register and check the MIA list and forward info on those you may have or contact them and encourage them to register. * Sorry.... I could not help myself..At the reunion I will be the person wearing the t-shirt that has the phrase "register...MIA list" as that is all people will remember me for :)*

comment by ROY PROCOPIO

I WILL LET JEFF CARLSON, AND ROB JOHNSON KNOW TO GET OFF THE MIA LIST, THANKS FOR ALL THE WORK YOU ARE DOING FOR THE REUNION

comment by Traci (Barcus) Ohren

Wow! What a fabulous job on this site. I was unable to make the 10 year reunion, but there is going to be nothing stopping me from going to my 20th.

comment by Jennifer (Ekholm) O'Quinn

What a wonderful job on the website. It is fun to catch up with everyone and the photos help, as I have lost a few brain cells in the last twenty years, age and 3 children will do that!! Looking forward to August. Thanks so much!

The weekend sounds like it will a lot of fun and I am looking forward to it. Hopefully the food will include some kind of meat and potatoes not just finger food. Looking forward to hearing from some of you guys.

comment by Brenda Haynes (Young)

I have recently gotten in touch with a few people from school and I can honestly say that I'm really glad to be reconnecting! Thanks for the great site. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again.

comment by Marie (Tobeck) Richter

Great job on the website Julie and Craig!! I am really glad that you did this. I was never contacted about our 10th reunion, so I am looking forward to our 20th. My thoughts and prayers go out to Kelley and her family. It is really great reading everyones bio's!! I will keep watching for new things.

comment by Alan Swan

Hi Everyone! I missed our 10th year reunion; I won't make that same mistake again for our 20th. I encourage everyone to contact someone and pass this event on so that we may have an absolutely wonderful event with ALL classmates!!! Take care, Alan Swan

comment by Linda Newman-Stram

After joining the committee and being completely harassed by Julie, I figured I better register. I will try to track down as many people as possible. Hopefully still living in GR will help. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

comment by Gordon Stram

Looking forward to playing music Saturday night. If you have any requests, please send them to me via e-mail. Be excellent to each other.

comment by Larry Hector

Hey class. I've been following the discussions on classmates.com and after seeing the class of 86 do such a nice job on their website, I'd like to thank Julie and Craig for getting us off to a great start here. I look forward to seeing more pictures in the photo section. It is amazing to think that 20 years have passed. So much has changed in our lives since then that it almost seems like a dream. I look forward to seeing everyone and re-establishing friendships that have faded through time and distance. I wish you all health and happiness and hope everyone can make it next summer.

comment by Rebecca (Thomsen) Rasmussen

Thanks Julie for such a great sight! I saw the add in the paper yesterday. Can't believe it's 20 yrs. already!!! Let me know what I can do to help out.

Hi, Julie! I found it! I will get the word out to as many people as I can. Let me know if you need any help. I live in White Bear Lake, which is a northern suburb of St. Paul, but I will do what I can. My parents still live in GR so I do make it back now and then.
