Dear classmates: 

Twenty years ago we were...well...we were 20 years younger, for one thing. We were also Glencoe High School's Class of 1999. Now that we're so much older—and wiser!—the time has come to celebrate with our 20-year high school reunion. 

Please save the date: Saturday evening, August 17 at the Jupiter Hotel in Portland, Oregon. To get this party started, we ask that you reserve your spot with a contribution of $65 per person. Please pay here.

This is a limited-time offer that will cover the venue as well as food and drinks. The price of admission will begin to increase after April—and you must purchase a ticket in advance to attend the reunion. If you're interested in booking a room at the Jupiter, use this link for a discounted rate.

You're very much welcome to bring a guest to the reunion, but we'd also like to keep this an adults-only affair. In addition to the Saturday evening gathering, we will organize a family-friendly potluck that same weekend. More programming details will follow in the weeks ahead. 

Lastly, Aaron Bass, Chary Warner, and Joel Weber have volunteered to organize this year's event. Should you have any questions or suggestions, please contact them at glencoe99reunion@gmail.com. You can also find the Facebook reunion page here.

In the immortal words of Ferris Bueller: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." This summer's reunion is one engagement you definitely won't want to miss. We look forward to seeing you in August! 

Sincerely, GHS '99 Senior Class

#5 Alum Update: Greg Blaisdell

Greg has spent most of the last 10 years looking forward to the 10 year reunion. Some time after graduating from Glencoe he went back in the closet and got himself married to a woman who proved useful in providing him three children, which they decided to keep, largely for tax purposes. He earns money for a living, and also enjoys judging the faults of others and eating pizza.

Tickets are now $45 each

The July 25th deadline has come and gone so tickets are now $45 each, $90/couple. Thanks to all who paid already. For those who haven't, you can pay via Paypal using the "Buy Now" button to the left of this post or you can wait and pay at the door.

We will see you all on Saturday.

OFFICIAL Reunion eVite and RSVP List

The reunion committee e-mailed the official invites a couple weeks ago to those alums we have e-mails for. To those of you who are not on our e-mail list, we made the eVite public so you can RSVP on your own without us sending it to you. For those who have seen it, feel free to forward it to those who haven't. We want all alums to know about the event, whether they are coming or not.

Click HERE for the reunion eVite.

It should provide all the info you need for the evening but if you still have questions, feel free to e-mail us at glencoe99reunion@gmail.com

The Reunion Committee

Need Your Pics!

The reunion committee will be showing a slide show at the reunion and so we need your help to make this happen. Please submit photos of you and friends from childhood, high school, and post graduation. Joel Weber has created a group album using Photobucket. You can log into the album by going to photobucket.com and using account name: Glencoe99 and Password: crimsontide If you don't want to log in, Joel says you can e-mail your pictures to him and he will upload them for you. His e-mail is: joelnweber@gmail.com We ask that you only upload a maximum of 5 pictures. If you would like to view the album, click HERE. Thanks for your help! We look forward to seeing everyone August 1st.
