If the 50th reunion didn't give you enough time to visit with classmates, come to a min-reunion of our class in San Francisco, April 24-27, 2003. There'll be delicious food, stimulating museums, boat rides that will leave the driving to someone else, and more delicious food. We'll be entertained at 'Beach Blanket Babylon', a San Francisco institution, and two Napa wineries will add to your appreciation of wine-making skills. An al fresco luncheon buffet awaits us at Rutherford Hill Winery. Paul Klee's work as well as Leonardo da Vinci's will be on exhibit at museums we will visit.
The formal part of the reunion will conclude with a Hornblower Yacht dinner cruise around San Francisco Bay. For hard-core tourists there will be an optional trip on Sunday to 'The Rock', better known as Alcatraz, the former penitentiary and now a museum. A big plus for an event like this is having a hotel centrrally located (within two blocks of Saks, Tiffany, Hermes, Nieman Marcus and Macy's) comfortable and reasonably priced. The Chancellor Hotel is all of that. All this comes at the manageable price of $400 each. The hotel is separate as well as dinner Thursday nigh, breakfast Friday morning and the optional events on Sunday.
Batch has already sent the detailed itinerary along with a sign-up sheet in '51 Fables. Bogardus and McKee ran all over the area, taking photos of where we'll be going, to further whet your appetites.
Everyone on the Committee plans to attend. A call by you to other
classmates, encouraging them to join this mini-reunion, will make it even
better. Next April, we'd love to have that song on your lips, 'San
Francisco, Here We Come!'
