Chalk up another high school reunion being helped by a social network Web site.
A few weeks ago I wrote about Facebook.com as being the new way to reunite with classmates, even if your class didn’t hold a reunion.
Up until this week, it did not appear my class would hold a 30th class reunion. But one classmate stepped up after another set the ball in motion.
In the course of two weeks, not only were plans talked about via Facebook, but they were able to throw together a plan that will allow a reunion to take place in early August.
It just goes to show what team work can do.
Having attended the 10th and 20th class reunions, teamwork was vital. They were successful ventures headed by classmates who still lived in the hometown.
This one will be a special one. Most of the people involved in the planning this time will be attending their first reunion. It’s not because they didn’t like high school. It has a lot to do with living so far away and establishing themselves.
From the comments being posted on my Facebook wall, they are anxious to get back and reconnect, in person.
So the Facebook experience will become an in-person experience.
