Our venue, the fantastic Shiloh Gardens, is a destination event center on the Furkids Rescue/Shelter/Sanctuary campus (furkids.org). The proceeds from our reunion go directly to Furkids, allowing them to save more lives. We'll do good, while we have a great time!
Your ticket includes admission, heavy hors d'oeuvres, beer, wine, non-alcoholic beverages, and a very few curated signature drinks. Please remember to thank our ace bartender, Garrett, with generous tips - he's done a great job helping us pull our event together!
A photographer will be available from 6PM to 9 PM, for class pics, candids, and special couple's/group photos, at your request. You can view and purchase pics here: https://www.tomsmarch.com/

WHAT NOT TO WEAR?
Stacy and Clinton respectfully declined our Celebrity Invitation, but they did offer a bit of advice:
"No Daisy Dukes, and no bare feet!"
We say, wear what makes you happy! Leisure suits and big hair optional. Be Casual, Garden Party, Comfy, and/or Cute.
And if the shoes come off while you're dancing, we won't tell!
IMPORTANT KNOW-BEFORE-YOU-GO! The parking lots are GRAVEL. There is handicapped parking in front of the main building. But if you use a mobility device that does not traverse gravel well, it will be easier for you to access the gardens by being dropped off at the breezeway in front of the path. We can help. PLEASE LET US KNOW IN ADVANCE IF YOU WILL NEED ACCESS ASSISTANCE.
We have arranged for our class to return to Dear Old HHS (now Henderson Middle School) on Saturday, 21 October, from noon to 2 PM. Feel free to drop in, and leave with all the feels! We do ask that if you plan to participate, you "buy" your ticket(s) on the ticket form - there is no charge, but we need to give the school an idea of how many guests to expect!
Please also consider purchasing a few raffle tickets for our Reunion Gift Basket Drawing - it's filled with really cool stuff, and ALL the proceeds go to Furkids, to further their phenomenal lifesaving missions!
If you would rather not buy tix on line, you are welcome to send a check - made out to Henderson High School Class of 1973 50th Reunion, to Nancy Pihera, 1792 Breckenridge Drive, Atlanta, GA 30345. Please be certain to write in indelible ink, and wrap your check in a piece of paper - check theft is rampant!
Here are some nearby hotels - we have not booked "blocks" at any of them, because you can find much better rates on line. There are plenty more in a 4 mile radius, if you belong to a Loyalty Program.
