Hyatt Regency Hotel Loves Southwest High School

The Hyatt Regency in downtown Kansas City, Missouri has been a long standing host to many of our school related events. They would like you to know that they love being our hometown spot for Proms, Reunions, and Award Ceremonies.

I spoke to Jessie Shelby on Friday just past, February 6th, 2009, and she mentioned that October 16 & 17, 2009 Southwest High School Class of '59s 50-Year Reunion has been booked at the Hyatt!

Wow, we may have our 20-Year Reunion for the Class of '89 there as well this year on August 15, 2009. The numbers are not in quite yet, but we have good feelings about this familiar associated location. Our '89 Class has fond memories of Hyatt Regency, some of which were recently shared during our latest 20-Year Reunion Committee meeting on Saturday, February 7th at my home. We were graced by the presence of a visiting class member who wanted first-hand information for his close friends.

Thank you for attending, John Nickles! You certainly gave us a welcome deviation to procedure that we enjoyed. We have informed John & the '89 Posse, that our Center of Operations or the '89 HQ is no longer on "classmates.com" but has its own FREE Class of '89 Home Page and fully operational website at http://swclassof89.org

You can also move your pointer over the Indian Mascot ON THIS PAGE and LEFT click on it to reach the '89 HQ site referenced above. Your name is already listed. Find your name, enter your basic information and wait for the updates to arrive! It's a no brainer...and isn't that a relief?

Class Members, PLEASE Include your Full Address so we can compile an '89 Class Directory for the Reunion Committee. We would like to FIND YOU the NEXT TIME an '89 Class Event is planned. Otherwise, there will be a Sign-In Class Book at the Reunion in August located outside the ballroom at our registration table. We will not share any information you do not wish shared, but you MUST COMMUNICATE This Wish to Us.

If you are not attending this time, you will be missed. Please be sure to send us your information so that you will keep abreast of our future Class Activities and Events. This Reunion Committee does Not plan on letting you all go into hiding again! We have worked too hard and have had an extremely successful relocating campaign to just quit after this year's Reunion. We are setting up a Class Account in order to fund Ongoing Class Events throughout the years to come. So if you cannot make this Reunion, we hope to see you for any 25-Year Class Event we may be planning.

Perhaps we can even help other classes who find that Reunion Planning can be overwhelming. We can offer sound advice, tips and information, just as our previous fellow Alumni helped us: the Class of '86, we thank you!

Love and Laughter,
Elisa
