Orrville Class Of 1976 40th High School Reunion
Weekend of August 19-21, 2016
Friday, August 19, 6-11 pm
Head downtown to Orrville's Rib Fest then meet at the VFW to hang-out & reminisce. We'll hold a casual meeting to acknowledge the recipients of the class scholarships.
Donation: $5/person
Saturday, August 20, 10 am - 12:45 am Sunday
You may choose to join us for the entire day, or meet up for any or all of the activities.

We'll meet at the OHS auditorium at 9 am for a short presentation and tour by Superintendent Jon Ritchie and then repart the OHS parking lot at 10 for travel to Cleveland for the day.  We can carpool and travel as a caravan if desired.  Some classmates are staying in Cleveland overnight; carpool accordingly.

11 am: Meet at Al's Deli 1717 E 9th St #101, Cleveland, OH 44114
You can park on street if needed or head down to :
726 North Marginal Rd Lot, $10 for the day; about 4 1/2 city blocks north of the restaurant. This is an open lot, but open 24/7
***I'm not sure if you park on Saturday evening and head out after midnight if that counts as 2 days or not. Call: 216-664-5201 if you are concerned. See additional list of actifivies first.
or
Key Bank Garage at Superior & E 9th, enter at Vincent to the south, $10 for the day. This is right across from Al's Deli. (I actually have a call in to this garage to check about availability; they are only open weekends for events. The Indians do play but not until that night, so not absolutely sure. I'll update this information as needed).
After lunch we'll head to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
1100 E 9th St. Group rates is $17.75/person if we reserve for 20; RSVP to Ruth or Jerry if you are going. Otherwise full rate is $23.50.
Leave the Rock Hall at about 5 and head over to the 9th St. Pier and hang out until time to board the Good Times III for a Dinner & Dance Cruise.
If you are staying in Cleveland and prefer leave the Rock Hall a bit earlier to head to your hotel to freshen up before the cruise, feel free to do so. We also have a couple classmates offering their room for this; if interested please ask Ruth.
Good Times III: Boarding time is 6:30 pm, with buffet dinner at 7. We will dock again at 9 and reboard at 9:30 for the City Lights Dance Cruise. Cost for both Dinner and Dance is $49.95/person. Cash bar.
Buffet catering by Normandy Caterers. Google them and you'll find they are highly rated. Go here for more information about the buffet:http://goodtimeiii.com/site/cruises/dinner-dance-cruise
YOU are responsbile for reserving your own place(s) on the cruise. This must be done by May 20 in order to guarantee your place. After May 20, you can still call to see if there are any places available. I was told they book up fairly fast for that time of year. Until May 20 we have 100 places held.
Call: 216 861 5110 or 888 916 7447 and mention group name: Orrville Class of 1976
AFTER the cruise which ends at 11:45, some classmates have talked about heading over to W 4th for more dancing and adult beverages.
Sunday, August 21, 1 pm
Meet at Dravenstotts for lunch. RSVP no later than June 30th.
If I missed a classmember, please add them by inviting them by using this event page.
Also, MANY classmates do not use FB and the email addresses I have are a bit outdated. If you have friends that you know may be missed, let Ruth or Jerry know OR call them and invite them yourself.
We can't wait to see everyone in August.
Please Note: A few minor details may change (parking, meeting, times).
