12 Reasons to Attend Your 20 Year High School Reunion

12 Reasons To Attend Your 20 Year High School Reunion:

1. Laugh, cry and reminisce with some of your oldest friends.
2. You don't have to lie about your age.
3. Rekindle old or begin new relationships.
4. Enjoy an evening out without the kids, or even the grand kids, as the case may be.
5. A great excuse to buy new clothes, get your hair done, get a manicure, etc.  
6. Have an excuse to cut a rug.  No reason to feel silly about bustin' out the robot, cabbage patch or the hammer because we're all the same age and we all can relate.
7. Slide show presentation.
8. Football, band and graduation video footage.
9. An opportunity to catch up with former SHS teachers/coaches at the day picnic.
10. Door prizes, food and cake!
11. It's the one night out of every 10 years that you get to feel 18 again. PLUS,
12. Studies have shown (not sure of the source, but trust me)  that those who were initially hesitant about attending their reunions, discover that it was an event they wouldn't have missed!

REUNION POEM

Reunion Poem

‘Twas the night of my class reunion and all through the house
I checked in each mirror and begged my poor spouse
to say I looked great, that my chin wasn’t double
and he lied through his teeth just to stay out of trouble.

I swallowed his words, hook, sinker and line

and entered the banquet hall feeling just fine.
Somehow I’d expected my classmates to stay
as young as they were in that long ago day.

We hugged our “Hellos” but, like me, through the years,
they’d added gray to their hair and pounds to their rears.
But as we shared a few memories and told old class jokes,
we were 18 in spirit, though we looked like our folks.

So we turned up the music and dimmed down the lights
Rolled back the years and were young for the night.

Please help us get the word out and forward this page link to any classmates that you know of that may want to attend the event.  Also, please send us any questions/suggestions/comments that you may have and let us know if you want to help out in any way.
