Dear Evergreen Pelicans,
After speaking with Anna Belle this morning and
corresponding with others earlier this week, it
looks like many of the details and refined
logistics are falling into place for Saturday as
anticipated. In addition to the May 6 update
posted on
www.EvergreenReunion.org
it is felt that these reminders may be helpful
in making for a more enjoyable reunion.
As you enter the front of the Little Flower
Church Hall, please obtain a
Welcome Greeting which will provide an
overview of the activities. Much anticipation
has been expressed about the DVDs and slide show
which will be going on concurrently in different
parts of the hall...be sure you view each of
them.
A few more volunteers (especially males), could
be used on Friday. Please contact Anna
Belle at (318)346-6724. She
and the Civic Club will be decorating
and arranging things throughout the day. They
will begin around mid-morning, so please phone
her if you are able to help - even if for an
hour or so. Your help is appreciated.
The Hospitality Booth will
have cold drinks and coffee - and we
also ask people to bring snacks and refreshments
to share with others. Boogie Riche'
, HB coordinator, indicated that the former EHS
students on Riche' Road donated to this cause
and others will be providing additional treats
to make this a wonderful area to visit. You are
welcome to bring your own drinks and
refreshments.
Please sign for your posed pictures
as early as possible so Mike Tanner
can get to everyone who wants pictures either of
classes, groups of classes (if numbers for your
class are small), family, friends, etc. You
will be filmed at the same time - so your
presence and action on this request is
appreciated.
Parking will be a bear. Please
try to park away from the church parking lot if
at all possible, so people who need to load and
unload supplies can get in and out. Also, it
would be good to save room in the parking lot
for our senior citizens and those with
handicapped parking permits. Your cooperation
in this matter is appreciated.
Mike Tanner has informed me that the
Evergreen Volunteer Firemen will be
a sponsor of the Evergreen website. Some people
have indicated they wish to be donate a memorial
to a loved one...all this will be covered in the
2:00 announcements and recognitions.
Yes, there will be some singing at the end (one
song). We could not have an ER without that.
Until Saturday, may the good Lord bless
and keep you - and please continue to
talk-up the ER. We look forward to seeing each
of you on Saturday.
Peace, Ed Dugas
