Glenbrook South 50th High School Reunion
Sept 18-20, 2015
REGISTRATION NOW OPEN
$90 PER PERSON
TO REGISTER
1. Read all material below.
2. Please consider adding a DONATION when you register. With the additional funds we can pay for dinner for our invited teachers, upgrade website and printing projects, increase the options for dinner, add more photo opportunities, and add additional appetizers at Hackney's.
3. The Reunion Committee set the cost of the Reunion as low as possible. We are aware that most of our classmates will be arriving from out of town (or out of country!). This one price includes Saturday night dinner and related Reunion expenses, such as the website, facility deposits, etc. The other events are either free (Hackney's with appetizers) or pay for what you attend. Both Hackney's and the Reunion dinner on Saturday will have cash bars with bartenders. If you can't attend the Saturday dinner, we hope you'll try some of the other events. You might consider a donation in that case to cover the other costs of planning the reunion.
