Reunion Postponement

Classmates, it is out of concern and care for the health and wellness of all, the Reunion Steering Committee has unanimously agreed we should again postpone our gathering.  This decision was not arrived at easily or without much discussion.  Disappointing as this decision is, it seems the only right choice we have at this time.

The rapid transmission of the Covid Delta variant over the last 30 days resulted in mounting concerns about "spreader events", travel and possible restrictions.  Over the last two weeks several classmates have shared their reluctance to attend, which is supported by the fact we have had no new event registrations since July 28th.

The Committee has been working diligently to determine options and timing going forward. There are many details to consider and we will use this Website to communicate.  On the short term, here is what we can share with you;

  • September 17 & 18, 2021 Reunion is postponed.  
  • The Sheraton has set aside Sept 16 & 17, 2022 for the LHS Reunion reschedule.  The Reunion Committee concensus is "stay the course" with the plans we had made and adjust to the new dates.
  • The Sheraton will automatically cancel all room reservations under the LHS Block and communicate to classmates who had made a reservation.  For those who may have used "Points" to secure a reservation, we suggest you work with the Hotel directly to retrieve your points.
  • For Classmates who have already paid for the Friday & Saturday events, we suggest you allow us to keep those payments in our Bank Account.  If for some reason you feel otherwise, use the Website Contact Us tab to request a refund.  As previously communicated, check payments are fully refundable, however, credit card payments will be slightly less as we incurred a processing fee for those transactions.
  • We have received enough Donations to purchase our Class Gift and would like to present to LHS in September.  Steering Committee representatives will present our Class Gift to LHS on September 17, 2021.
  • Thanks to your donations our Website can be renewed through Dec. 2022.  

We are aware many classmates have made travel plans.  Hopefully, we have provided enough lead time to adjust your plans and minimize potential costs. 

We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we work through issues and details regarding the postponement decision.  In the meantime, if you have questions or thoughts, please use the Website Contact Us tab to share with us.  

Stay safe, stay healthy,

The LHS Reunion Steering Committee
