Marriott Venue Cancelled Laura Brink Revenue Manager Marriott Key Largo Bay Resort 103800 Overseas Highway Key Largo, Florida 33037 P (305) 453-0000 F (305) 451-6054 Months ago the reunion committee began making preparations for our 50th High School Reunion celebration. A survey was sent out with questions pertaining to the site, month, attendance and by a margin the Key Largo Marriott venue was chosen with Homestead close behind. The staff at Key Largo Marriott Hotel was most gracious in working with us with the telephone calls and prompt in emailing me the lodging info and banquet menu selections. It was brought to our attention by a couple of the members the exorbitant prices for the menu selections altho room prices were not that bad. I was amazed at the request for a $2000 deposit just to secure the date for the lodging etc. and indicated so in my initial fax to the site. Never before have I, whether in FL, NC, TN, etc., was ever required to put down a deposit to secure the room and/or meals. My word was always good enough for all the other locations we've booked in the past. It's almost as though there is a trust issue and that did not emit a warm presence about this reunion site, although the ladies Denise and Laura were most cordial and am assuming their were following hotel policies. But, that is not the reason why you are receiving this letter. As the classmates began to look over the banquet menu there attached to that menu was a $15,000.00 fee which then immediately became as issue as the classmates began to delve into the menu site. I guess this fee was to ensure we order enough drinks food, etc. If that be the case then the Thursday evening venue would have also had that $15,000.00 attachment inasmuch as we had an evening of dancing, etc. (Sock Hop) planned indicated in my original phone call to their location. Thursday, Friday is at Billy Perry's home in Homestead, Saturday and Sunday Champagne Brunch were the dates needed thus, April 24-26, leaving after the brunch on Sunday, the 27th and this was clearly stated in my discussions with both ladies at the site. After much discussion with the Reunion Committee we have voted to cancel the reservation for the weekend of April 24-26, 2008 for South Dade High School at the Key Largo Marriott. I am within the time frame of canceling July 17, 2007 before the cut off date. I composed a letter using some of the wording that you are now reading and on Friday sent the letter to them with a return receipt requested. I asked the mail lady what with the weekend when she thought it might arrive and she indicated today, Saturday. Below is an excerpt from Laura's initial letter to me. Laura, you will note the entry from your initial email to me regarding reservations and cancellations. "If cancellation of this booking becomes necessary, to avoid forfeiture of any deposits paid or payment of penalties, the hotel must receive written notification by Tuesday, July 17, 2007". "This sentence appeared in their letter too. I will put this letter in the mail to you tomorrow and will send it as a return receipt requested to ensure its arrival and the cancellation of our weekend according to your policy." Reunion Committee: Joan Martens PS Do not think for one minute there is not a plan in action for that same weekend and you will be notified as plans are made....We are well within our time frame but we are working quickly and a reminder for pictures, etc. to be sent to Dianne. A lot of work is going to be done for this endeavor so please HURRY with great speed, that is, if you can locate some after 50 years. I need an email address for Carol Sue Markowitz . Last one I had was rrindian1@onramp.com and rrindian1@earthlink.net. Neither of these appear to be working as they've been returned to me. Also, Tommy Adams does not have a working email. Back To Top

Robert Boone, Jon Bischoff, Don Alexander, Norman Boyd, Harold Brannan, Let's see if someone else will be able to reach out to spark a bit of interest. Look over the above list to see if you name appears on the list and a simple I'm coming will suffice with the total # in your party. If your name does not appear on the above list, that means I didn't receive the survey as each survey was printed out upon its arrival or you are still contemplating the trip home again to participate in this great time of fun and we "will" have fun as the activites are being planned and some surprises too. The Site is: Key Largo Marriott Hotel where we had the 30th year reunion. The Month is: April Further details will be sent upon speaking with the Mariott Hotel, securing the date, etc. and trying to reach the representative for South Dade. Looks like I will have to make a trip to the site on that last detail. Back To Top
Last Chance to Place Your Vote (6/22/07). I know there are some who may have stuffed their survey info in a corner so please retrieve it from the trash can, the desk piled with papers or any place else you think you might have put it so we can get the plans made with expediency....In other words, with a quickening. So far my friends: 72 have signed up and I know you've just forgotten to email your survey reply. Tell you what to do to make it easy on everyone. Just complete the following 3 questions. Name: Address: Phone: Site: these are the two selections so make your choice - Homestead or Florida Keys Month: March, April, or May This truly is not a difficult matter to attend to and because we need to devote the rest of the time for planning of the events, site, month, etc. it is imperative that we receive your decisions pronto....please! I would give you the total thus far but do not want to sway your decision in any way. Thanks again and HURRY! The Reunion Committee Back To Top

Get The Survey Replies Back (6/7/07)

Ok.... my friends, we are really down to the wire with getting these survey replies back. And... I do believe some might have lost theirs, deleted it by accident , the animals played with it or something else that hampered the sending of the info back to the committee. Even if you will "not" be able to attend a note (I like sweet ones) indicating your unavailability to attend our 50th that weekend other than me thinking oh dear, did I send it, did it reach the correct email box, etc.

The committee has given you a lot of time to plan the event on your calendar and those who have responded I'm happy to say that the tallies have been tabulated for the big event. But, what we need now are the rest of the surveys to be sent either indicating good news of your coming or sad news telling us you will not be able to make the trip.

Here is a preliminary posting of plans discussed for the weekend but the most important item is securing the facility for our lodging and that is a "must" immediately. One can always cancel but better safe than sorry.

Thursday: A "Sock Hop" at the site of our lodging.

Friday ( during the day): a walk through memory lane at South Dade Senior High and the presentation of a plaque given by the Class of 1958. For those who are not aware, there is a brand new South Dade Senior High School being built just south of the existing one and it is huge.

Friday afternoon/evening: Bill Olson is hosting a barbecue for the class on his property. He has indicated that it is his gift to us but we will certainly help out in some way.

Saturday: Because many of you still have family friends, etc. here in the Homestead area there will be time for visitation with them and shopping and anything else that you might want to accomplish while here in SO FL.

Golf is a "high" priority of this weekend and Jim Simmons will be coordinating that event for us so you might give him a heads up regarding your participation. jsim@alltel.net

Saturday evening: will be the banquet and dance at a facility chosen according to your votes.

Sunday: It would be nice for our last time to be together to have an informal "Champagne Brunch" which will wind down the Reunion Event as we say our goodbyes until our next reunion.

Now, if this itinerary doesn't excite you I don't know what will.

As previously stated before, we need the surveys in so reservations can be made to secure the lodging site. Right now we have a total of 84 attending and it would be wonderful to be able to add your name to the list.

If you do not have the survey anymore, just write your name, address, how many, the site, and the month or your choice and the rest is history. Now, how easy is that?

No pressure now, but get them in please. If you've sent yours in already YEA!!!!!!

Thank you for your participation,

Your Reunion Committee

PS Please look over the email addresses and if you find a classmate not on the list please email me and I will get a note out to them. AND, don't forget the pictures that Dianne has requested.
