William A. Wirt High School
Class of 1970
Reunion Committee Meeting Minutes
January 25, 2010
In attendance: Sandy McMullen (Kummerer), Mary Jo McDonald (Cooke), Kathi Millet (Zick),
Colleen Yates (Hallen), Jon Trathen
The meeting was held at T.J. Maloney’s in Merrillville, IN.
The following items were discussed:
- The group went over the updated list of classmates we have not been able to locate (sent by Bill Marlatt). There were a few names that we still may be able to contact, but most of them will be “Shout Outs” by Kat Millet. Sandy will provide the information to Bill and Barry Lindstrom to include on the website he has created for similar “Shout Out” type information. Kat will email Mark Miller to have him post similar information on My Space. Kat is also going to research putting information on the Wirt 60s website.
2. Sandy will be sending an updated email to classmates (postage costs prohibit a second mailing) as a reminder of the “Early Bird” price deadline of January 31, 2010. She is also going to attach the questionnaire for everyone to complete so we have information for the program book. Sandy’s information will be available on the class website, My Space and Facebook.
3. All information received from the questionnaires will go into a Google share drive so that this information is not accessible to anyone but Bill, Sandy & Karen Isenhour (Easley) for use in putting the program together.
4. Mary Jo will take care of putting a Reunion announcement in both The Times and The Post Tribune.
5. Bill, Karen & Barry are coordinating efforts to put together a slide show and do the name tags with class pictures on them.
Even though the list for the minutes is short, we spent a lot of time going over the missing names and general discussion of how great the web site looks, etc. It was a good meeting and the committee members, both local and out of state, are really getting excited for a great event.
Everything is falling into place; our focus now is to get responses and payment from as many of our classmates as possible.
The next committee meeting will be held on Monday, March 15th, 6:30 p.m. at
T.J. Maloney’s in Merrillville, IN.
