White House, TN -This is the last issue of Lee's Traveller before our upcoming reunion and the last time to put out the schedule we plan to follow.Please note the phone numbers to the right in case you need to make some last minute contacts.I'm looking forward to seeing all of you there. I still have not heard whether Willard Finkbinder will attend or notPlease send an email to your contact and include: Class year, first name; last name at time of graduation; married name (if applicable); spouse’s name (if applicable); street address; city; state; zip code; home ( H ) or cell ( C ) phone number (which ever you prefer); e-mail address; and occupation.Even if you do not plan to attend or are not sure if you’ll be able to attend the upcoming reunion, please send in your information. And please encourage other classmates that you may be in contact with to do the same. 
A few extra things to add to the update from last week:Those that have paid in advance will be on a check-in list at their class's registration table. Those paying Friday or Saturday at the door will be added to the list at that time.A photographer will be taking photos both Friday & Saturday evenings.We will arrange for a group photo to be taken of each class and if anyone wants to arrange for other special group pictures, the photographer will be happy to work with you. Checks will be accepted, but he will not be set up to take credit cards.If you have any photos or other memoriabilia that you would like to share, there will be a board set up to post them on. If you can bring copies that can be kept, that would be great. Kem Robertson (class of '65) still has the one he put together for the 2000 reunion and any new photos will be added to it. So dig through those old photo albums and see what you can find!With only a few days left, if you need to contact someone in regards to the reunion here are a few contact numbers:The reunion festivities scheduled at the Huntsville Marriott will cover two evenings:Friday, August 20th & Saturday, August 21st. The cost of attending the reunion is $50.00 per person. There is not a separate price for attending only one of the evenings. The cost is figured to cover the expenses for the whole weekend. Please keep in mind that the final food order must be placed at least 72 hours before the event. So if you are planning to attend, but for some reason can not get your registration form sent in advance, please get in touch with your class contact and let them know so that enough food can be ordered. When planning an event of this size, some “wiggle room” is figured in, but we don't want to run short of food or seating. Questions have also been asked about who is invited to attend this reunion. The classes of LHS ‘64’65’66 had a unique high school experience. Many of us attended Lee for six years as it changed from Lee Jr. High School into Lee High School. That experience seems to have given us a special bond; therefore we have planned our reunions together for many years. That does not mean that others are excluded. If you are in another graduating class or just attended Lee at some time and want to join us, please know that you are welcome. Just get in touch with one of the class contacts listed on this website for a registration form. We'll be glad to have you!Friday evening’s get-together (6:00 p.m. – 11 p.m.) is an informal poolside gathering. Each class will have a Hospitality Room where attendees will go to check in and get a nametag. If for some reason you have not paid your registration fee for the reunion, you can pay at the hospitality room. The tentative Hospitality Room numbers are 159, 161, and 163. To reach these rooms, go through the lobby and past the front desk. You’ll see glass doors to the right that lead out to the courtyard/pool area. The hospitality rooms will be across the courtyard. (Watch for blue balloons and signs to guide you to the appropriate rooms.) In case of rain, aside from the hospitality rooms, there is an area inside where we can gather. Dress is casual – comfortable & cool. Light snacks and soft drinks will be provided. A cash bar will also be set up. There is no planned program for Friday evening. Just grab a seat or stroll around and visit.Saturday evening’s get-together (6:00 p.m. – 12:00 a.m.) will be held in the Huntsville Marriott Ballroom. This does not mean that dress is formal – it’s just what the room is called. Since it is inside and cooler, “dressy casual” is a good way to go.Registration begins at 6:00 p.m. To reach the ballroom, enter the main lobby and walk straight ahead past the front desk. You will see registration tables set up outside the ballroom. Find your class year table, check in and pick up your nametag. (If you registered early enough a special nametag will have been prepared for you.) If for some reason you have still not paid your registration fee for the reunion, you can pay at this time. Please make checks payable to “LHS Reunion 2010” or have the correct amount of cash available.Buffet served 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. - heavy hor d’oeuvres, coffee, & tea. A Cash Bar will also be available.Reunion Program 7:30 – 8:00Live entertainment begins at 8:00 p.m. The Time Machine The Baby Boomer's Guide to Growing Up in "The Rocket City" is now available for mail order purchase. The 402-page book costs $15 plus $5 for priority mail postage. I will be bringing a limited number to the reunion with me so you can save postage costs if you can catch me there and I have any left. I will also be at the Sidewalk Arts Stroll on the Courthouse Square on Thursday, August 19th from 4:30-8:30 p.m. Chick on the link below for ordering information:
