Subject: 2020 All Classmate Reunion Cancellation
 

Greeting from the 2020 All Class Reunion Chair & Committee. We hope all is well with each of you and your families, and you are practicing “STAY IN PLACE.” Your executive steering committee and I met and unanimously agreed, due to the uncertainly of the COVID-19 epidemic, to postpone and reschedule the 2020 reunion. Each chairperson and their committee members are willing to serve as the Steering Committee for the PHS next upcoming reunion.
 
All planning activities are on hold. All persons who have per-registered will be issued a refund. By cancelling our reunion plans now, we have ample time to cancel all travel and hotel accommodations.
 
Several committee members have proposed, depending on the COVID-19 threat and if permissible, a PHS event be held in spring or fall of 2021 or reschedule for 2022, date and time to be announced. Your input will be solicited, and a new plan of action developed. We will update  you on the results and announce a new reunion date. Please response to the survey which will be emailed to each of you. Check PHS website for survey info. Thanks, you for the enthusiasm you showed for  the 2020 reunion festivities and we are looking forward to our next BIG Reunion CELEBRATION to be announced.
 
In the meantime, continue to be safe and blessed. And May God Bless These United States.
 
 
THANKS!!!

“Long May She Stand”

                                                                                                   
           
​                    
                                  ATTENTION CLASSMATES! Class of 1970🐅🐅

I pray that everyone is well. I wanted to let everyone know and please tell others not on social media, that unfortunately due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 situation, we will be postponing our reunion in June. We hope to have it at a later time. We realize that we are officially the "Geezer Crowd" and we do not need to be exposed to the virus.
Your Steering Committee will be teleconferencing soon. Hopefully, if you have already made travel and hotel accommodations, you will have time to cancel them. For you who have paid your registration, you will be refunded.
In the meantime, stay in touch on this page and with each other. Watch for email updates. Stay safe and healthy! Despite COVID-19, it's still hard to be a Tiger! 😉 Freida Crawley Class of 1970🐅🐅🐅
