Hi, everyone from the Class of 1988! I've gotten a lot of great responses to the questionnaire and it looks like y'all are excited for Reunion! If you haven't made a decision about attending, just think about how much fun we'll have. Catching up with classmates, bragging about careers and family, laughing about our college days - it can't be beat! I'll be attending and so will Julie Reynolds Willey, Robbie Hollenback Thomas, and Sandy Plankinton Bassick! I really hope to see all of you in May! Have a great day! Tian

Hello everyone.
After living in sunny Florida for 9 years, my husband, son and I have just relocated to the Rochester, New York area, so if there are any fellow alums living around here, feel free to e-mail me - I need to meet some people around here!

After working for Walt Disney World for 7 years, I have given up a "traditional" job and have become a Creative Memories consultant so I can work from home and be with my one-year old son.  I teach people how to preserve their photos and put them in photo-safe albums and I love it.

Now that I am back in closer proximity, I may actually make it for our 15 year reunion next year. :)
Feel free to drop me a line - I love e-mail that isn't spam! ;)

I am glad to be in touch once again with CCC.  So many years later and still a great deal of fond memories.  Looking forward to this year's reunion.  Twenty years for our class!!! I can hardly believe it!  I have been out of touch for so long that I would need several pages to update everyone.  But, I will spare you and just give you my current status.  Currently living in Boston, MA.  I am working for an alternative Mental Health Program for women, as the Support Groups Program Coordinator.  Never married (traditionally).  I have no children.  Several cats and "u-hauls" later, I am happy, healthy and doing fine.  I'll be in touch!  Thanks for the memories!
