Newtown 1985 Silver Reunion - webcast
We had a netbook with Internet access at the Silver Reunion. The computer sat in one corner and transmitted mostly dark silhouettes of people dancing. Rats! We should have walked the thing around the hall, but see if you can any decent glimpses of the event through these recorded videos.

THE EVENT!!!
Here you go, non-Facebook Newtown '85 classmates. The event arrived and it was a blast. Many people brought cameras and nobody forgot to load them with films! I know, back in the 1980s cameras used films and sometimes we would snap away without knowing there was nothing to save the precious memories to. These are just the photos from my camera. Hopefully there will be more. To pause the slideshow, right-click somewhere white in the "notebook". Mac users, control-click is equivalent to right-click, that is, hold the "control" key and click the big one button on your mouse or trackpad. Enjoy!

The Day Has Arrived
This is it, folks. The Silver Reunion has arrived, well, technically another 12 hours or so. Sorry for the lack of news in past months, but it was hectic on the Facebook side.
In the end, we have over 100 graduates, about 40 guests. A few people flew in or drove in from far away, many from Florida, others as far away as Arizona and California.
Everything is in place and we look forward to a great reunion. No payment at the door, i.e. you have to already paid in advance.
There should be lots of photos to share afterward here, but to appreciate the full scope, visit

and proceed from there.
