Three More Reasons to Come to the Coral Gables High 40-year Reunion
Golf
Charlie Johnson has reserved 16 tee times (4 foursomes) for the Biltmore Golf Course starting at 10:00 A.M. on Saturday.
Beaux Art Festival
It is the simply the best art festival in Miami--high, high quality, juried, and a great outing for Sat or Sunday.
Chihuly at Fairchild Tropical Gardens
Chihuly has never done an exhibit in the same place, but was such a success last year, at Fairchild that he is coming back. His blown glass is incredible and interspersed throughout the Gardens, it is just something to behold.
But of course nothing beats the best reason for attending the reunion:
Friends
This is an excerpt from a note sent by a classmate to a friend who was considering not coming to the reunion. (We removed the names to protect their identities.)
Hi ___________,
I heard thru the grapevine that you were thinking of not coming to the reunion....you must be kidding!!! I had so much fun seeing you when you came to ________, it was like it was yesterday and it had been about 30+ years. Can you imagine seeing all our old friends again, after 40 years! I'm sure many have changed, but you have not, you looked great and the same to me. Remember the lady at Tommy Bahamas thought we looked like sisters?! It will be a blast. If we can come from _______ you and your hubby should be able to come from _______. Wouldn't your mom be happy to see you too?! It sounds like the committee has gone to a lot of work and are planning some fun stuff and we need to get as many people to attend as possible. I hope you will give this some serious thought as the chances of connecting with this many old friends again at one time might not happen. You know we are not getting any younger...hah.....and at this point in our lives we are young and still able to "boogie" and have a kicking good time!!! I'm counting on seeing you again and I know many others want to see you too!
Love,
____________
