45th Reunion

Finance & Registration

Go to Budget

Joe Prather 5/4/06
Dear Classmates:

In response to concerns raised about the fee structure, we have reviewed the fees and discussed the issue with several committee members.

The classmates are the ones putting on the 45th reunion for the class and for their wives, children, grandchildren, and other guests. It is the classmates' responsibility to pay for the fixed costs of our 45th. The fees that we charge our guests should cover only the marginal costs of having them join us.

We are satisfied that the fee we, as classmates, are paying properly reflects the fixed costs of bands, undergraduate staff salaries, and rentals; and also the variable costs of meals and costumes. We feel the fee for the wives is also proper.  A revision to the Saturday-only guest fees is warranted. The new fees will be:

Children 6 and under will be free and will include lunch, a badge, and wrist band, any costume items will be a la carte.

Children over 6 will be $35 and will include lunch, T-shirt, badge and wristband.

Any overpayment already made will be refunded.

We apologize for any problems the initial fee schedule has caused and wish that we had been clever enough to get the right insight earlier.

Ev & Joe Prather
