School Reunion

If it has been five or ten years since you graduated high school, then it is time for your high school reunion. Perhaps you have not heard of any plans? Why not take it upon yourself to get the school reunion ball
rolling? Where is your class president anyway? If they are not making the necessary plans, then someone needs to. Why not make that someone you!

Planning a school reunion does not have to be as scary as you might think. Start by forming a committee so you can delegate some responsibilities. Find out if you can contact any of the class officers. If not, find some former classmates that still live in the area.

The first thing you need to do is secure a site. Many schools will allow the use of their gymnasium for reunions. This might be a good idea if you are on a tight budget. Other ideas include banquet facilities and nice restaurants. If it is in the summer, you could consider having it at a park, but there is the issue of the weather.

Once you have chosen your location, it is time to pick a budget. Do this before sending invitations. You will have to charge something for those who attend the high school reunion. Choosing your budget will help you determine how much to charge for tickets.

Now it is time to send out the invitations. Have an early enough date for the RSVP so that you can plan for the correct number of people. Contact your high school to see if they have contact information. Tracking down your classmates is the most challenging part of planning your reunion.

Once the invitations start rolling in, start planning the actual events. Be sure to publicize the reunion as much as possible, for those that you could not contact can are able to come. By considering these tips, you can ensure you plan the best school reunion possible.
