I've spoken to girls and other people from different schools who have served on reunion committees and they all came to the consensus that the less "frilly" the reunion, the more willing people will be to show up.

I get my alumnae magazine twice a year and normally 10 year reunions aren't too popular with the classes. The Class of 94 just had theirs. Thankfully many of them keep in touch via Yahoo Group, and a lot of them said that as long as things were as informal and inexpensive as possible, they'd show up. None of this hotel ballroom/golf tournament crap. They had a reunion weekend -- Friday was just "Ladies Night" at D&B, dinner, and a funny slideshow and Saturday was "Show off your husbands and kids" day with a picnic at the beach. From what I saw in the magazine, over half the class showed up, something that's never happened before.

Seriously, is there really a need for nametags with your senior picture attached or awards for "Most Changed"?

Damn that Romy and Michelle.
