Hi WGHS76 alumni,
Here's a quick update on the latest developments regarding our reunion
weekend of October 20-21:
There will be a tri-fold announcement mailed out in the next couple of
weeks with these details.
Hotel Accommodations
Out of Towner Alumni can get a room at the Clarion Hotel in Greensboro
on Swing Road right off Interstate 40 at the Guilford College exit.
Mention that you are a WGHS76 Alumni and you'll get our special rate of
$109.00 for a Single and $125.00 for a double.
Our event happens during the week of Furniture Market and A&T's
Homecoming so rooms will come at a premium. We got a great deal at the
Clarion.
Call them at: 336-299-7650 BEFORE September 21 to reserve your room.
Friday October 20
Friday evening event before the football game
5:00pm - 7:00pm
Ballinger Academy (next to WGHS)
Food and Drinks provided by the committee "featuring" Randy Wilhoit and
his fabulous Johnsonville Brats cooker.
We'll have:
Johnsonville Brats and hot dogs
buns, condiments and sodas
BYOB or anything harder
Live music provided by the High Strung Bluegrass band
*I know these guys and have heard them play and they're a lot of fun!
This is Homecoming weekend and I'm trying to get details on who we're
gonna Sting! on the gridiron ;-)
Please be prepared to pay your own way into the stadium.
However, we do think that we've got a section reserved for us.
Post-Game Activity
A gathering of the alumni at the Revival Grill from 9:30pm - 11:00pm.
Revival Grill is in the back of Quaker Village.
...OK, let me take you way back...the physical location used to be a
little post office and then it was a branch of Choosey Mothers Foosball
parlor.
We've got the bar area at Revival Grill and the patio reserved for us.
Also, the High Strung Bluegrass band will be setup on the patio for
some acoustic "back porch" music.
This will be a great time to network with classmates, have a few
drinks, find out if she/he still has a thing for you or if it really
was just a high school crush...
The idea for this event is for Alumni to connect up again. If you wanna
bring a spouse or significant other, that's cool.
Saturday October 21
We're still working on getting a Golf outing together.
If anybody wants to help plan other Saturday morning/afternoon
activities just let any of us on the committee know and we'll get the
word out.

*We don't need no stinking DJ. It's an iPOD, some speakers and tons o'

Here's the catch. There's always a catch.
