Listed below is a brief re-cap of deadlines and information concerning our 20Th Reunion plans. 

 

Planning committee: Will provide the group with their top choices of shore excursion that you may select via poll. The Excursions for Barbados has been included for your perusal. These polls were created  to assist you in choosing excursions of interests. Some excursion choices are very limited and would be prudent to book early to secure your seat. You have the option of choosing an excursion or viewing the islands on your own. You can plan your own events on each island, ex. walk around the shopping districts and so forth. Carnival verified all excursion polls can be reserved on-line starting 120 days prior to the cruise. Once you have made the required $250.00 Deposit, you will have to set up your individual log-on's by entering your Booking Number given to you when your Deposit was made at www.carnival. com .   If you have misplaced your booking number please send an email to Bronwen at ms_bi_bashful@ yahoo.com and she will provide it to you. We currently have 28 Cabins booked and 59 people attending the cruise. Once all the Polls are posted for the islands, the Committee will start planning other on board activities such as the 80's Party Night/Costume Party, White Pajama Night Party, Night in Paradise II, and Pool Party.

 

T-Shirt committee: Upon Clive's return from his vacation he will make the final adjustments to the names on the 20Th Reunion T-Shirt. Any honorable mentions who did not graduate with the CAHS OF 1989 but plan to actively participate including dues payment will need to submit their names upon Clive's request to insure that their names will be added. If you know of someone who wants to participate with us, let them know we need notification before we start printing our T-Shirt. We will use the original names on the class t-shirt. All others please check for the correct spelling of your names on the T-Shirt.

 

Hospitality Committee: The next process on the Planning committee agenda will be selecting the top 3 transportation picks. Committee Members were assigned different task amongst themselves to ensure that our Day in St. Thomas would be a success. They will get Quotes for transportation and catering.
