My thanks to your entire organization for the excellent and professional way you handled our (Morningside ’61) reunion—your 10th time or so managing it for us. Everyone was pleased and happy which is all we could ask for!!
I was contacted by Rick last year, about chairing the Granada Hills H.S. Class of 66 committee. I was reluctant at first. I informed Rick I had many things on my plate and wouldn’t have time to attend to the many challenges of setting up a 50 year class reunion. After several emails and discussions, Rick convinced me I was the right person for the job. He assured me the Reunion Committee has been doing this for many years and have all the resources necessary to handle my concerns. I learned they have this very efficient search engine saving time and energy. They handled contacting people who have changed names, residences, cities, states and countries.
I attended the class reunion (Class of 65) the year prior and was very impressed with the venue, food, music, bar and service.
The Reunion Community arranged with the hotel, to have a block of rooms at discounted rates for out of town travelers/guests.
Since I was now the chairperson, I was responsible for making certain decisions that could effect the outcome. I felt I was on a positive footing, through the guidance of the Reunion Committee. I believe in K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid). I decided to duplicate the class of 65 reunion. It had great reviews, everyone enjoyed themselves. I had such a good time, I didn’t want to change anything! Why fix it if it isn’t broken.
It was easy to keep in touch via phone or email with the Reunion Committee and their talented staff. They took care of most everything, making my job a no-brainer.
I had a fellow classmates to work with, which made my job even easier. I didn’t feel I needed to check on many things because I trusted the Reunion Committee’s experience, Having attended several previous reunions over the years, I had a good feeling on how this one would turn out.
All things came together the night of our reunion like pieces of a puzzle. The Reunion Committee took great care making sure everything was on schedule.
The Reunion Committee personnel took care of staffing the reception and sign-in desk, the photographer, D.J. and financial arrangements.
From our cocktail hour, music (DJ Frank) dancing, photographs to dinner (excellent food), made this night a night to remember.
During the evening I received many compliments from fellow classmates and guests. That appreciation, shall be directed to the experienced staff of the Reunion Committee and the talented personnel of the Sheraton Hotel, Agoura Hills. Thank you very much for a job well done. I hope that all future class reunions will be handled by The Reunion Committee. My advice to anyone planning a class reunion, please talk to them first. I know the Reunion Committee can handle your very first 10 year reunion, or senior’s, having there 50th. They’ll take good care of you.
The Hart High Class of ’86 just celebrated a terrific 30th class reunion and once again we choose The Reunion Committee to put on the whole show. Shelli, Katie, Joyce, Rick and their team were great to work with for our first two reunions, and this time was no different. They made helpful suggestions about venues, and led us to the Paseo Club in Santa Clarita, which worked great for us. The Mexican food buffet was a real hit and a perfect match for the casual indoor/outdoor atmosphere we chose this time around.
TRC took care of all the logistical details which could have been a real hassle, not to mention expense. They were also open to our hiring our own DJ (Richard Blade) and band (Weird Science, fronted by one of our classmates).
This was our first “green reunion.” Thanks to numerous email mailings and postings in our Facebook group, the Reunion Committee was able to reach a large number of our classmates. The Facebook group turned out to be a very effective means of communicating lots of details, especially as the reunion date drew nearer. Surely it helped boost our numbers.
Many of our classmates said this was our best reunion yet. TRC deserves the lion’s share of the credit for the evening’s success. We couldn’t have done it without you, and look forward to working together again for our 40th reunion!
Once again The Reunion Committee did a terrific job managing our reunions. The 40-year reunion in 2006 was excellent and our 50th this weekend was even better. Please extend our thanks to everyone involved in making the whole thing come together so seamlessly, from locating and inviting classmates to the evening itself. The Marina City Club is an excellent location and the food was genuinely good and plentiful. Our DJ, Johnnie Gee, was responsive to requests and did a great job of capturing the flavor of our era. We look forward to working with you again.
The Reunion Committee were extremely easy to work with. They are a very friendly group and answered any questions I had. They supplied me and the committee with a comprehensive classmate list. They followed up with me often and sent updated classmate lists out on a regular basis.
On the night of the reunion, the people that worked were very nice. Yael always kept me informed with the timing of events and what I should do next. They took many photos. Also, the memory board was a nice touch and the flowers on the tables matched our school colors. The DJ was great too and played all of the music we had suggested. I would recommend this company for your next reunion!
Thank you!
