March 2001
Dear Mayfair High School Class of 1961,
I am excited to report our 40-Year Reunion is officially here. The Reunion venue is "The Racquet Club" in Palm Springs, California and we are ready to begin gathering commitments from you who would like to attend. Here is your information packet. Enclosed are...
1. Registration forms including an outline of party plans, souvenirs, and their cost to you.
2. An on-line Questionnaire that when filled out will give us information about your life we all want to know: loves, retirement activities/retirement plans and dreams come true we all want to know. We'd also like snap shots of you and/or family shots that you'd like to share with us. We'd especially like pictures of those of you that cannot attend, but would like to be remembered by your classmates. This picture will be included in our souvenir booklet along with the pictures of those who do attend. The booklet will be available to those who do not attend (see Registration Form). Please read the questionnaire carefully and answer the questions then press the Submit button.
3. A list of our missing classmates is posted on our class website; we either haven't gotten an address for these people or they have not responded to our email messages or mailings. Please check the list over carefully. If some of those people were your special pals when we were all in school together, perhaps you've kept in touch and know their whereabouts, or maybe they'd respond to a letter from you where they haven't responded to the committee's efforts. Either way let us know if you have information we can use. We are anxious to have everyone attend if possible.
4. An advertising opportunity for you. We can defer some of the expense of the Memory Booklet by selling advertising on the booklet's last few pages. Perhaps you have a business that would benefit by your classmates knowing about it, or maybe you would like to include a special personal message to us all. If so, fill out the information on the advertising request sheet and return it with your registration form.
OUR VENUE
"The Racquet Club" is absolutely in mint condition after an extensive restoration of the entire resort. The place has 60 bungalows adjacent to a large Olympic size swimming pool, tennis courts, great restaurant, dance floor and a Vic D'Errico style bar. The brochure is available on our Official Class of '61 Website (http://www.vpracing.com/mhs.html). We highly suggest you reserve your room(s) as soon as possible. We expect them to go fast.
As in past class of '61 Reunions, we would like to extend a special invitation to your siblings or friends from previous classes who attended Mayfair High School. We would love to see them too. So, pass the registration information on to them (or simply send us their names and email and/or mailing addresses and we'll take care of it from there.

Everyone sending the registration information in on or before June 1st will automatically be entered in a drawing for a free room at "The Racquet Club" for the Party's entire weekend.
