Reunion2012INTRODUCTIONCongratulations —on your appointment as Reunion Chair! You are about to embark on one of the mostrewarding adventures of your Cornell volunteer career. Planning Reunion for yourclassmates is indeed a big job, but the satisfaction you will receive is immeasurable.You have two major objectives:• First, encourage as many of your classmates as possible to return toCornell in June.• Second, plan an enjoyable and interesting weekend so that their return will bememorable and worth the trip.There are three meetings scheduled to help you meet these objectives:123Reunion 2012 KickoffFriday and Saturday, September 9-10, 2011Ithaca, New YorkCornell Alumni Leadership ConferenceFriday through Sunday, January 27-29, 2012Washington, D.C.Reunion Clerk/Chair BriefingWednesday, June 6, 2012Ithaca, New YorkIn addition, there aremany people available toadvise and assist you: yourpeers, previous Reunionchairs, caterers, yourhousing contact, and theClass Programs staff in theOffice of Alumni Affairs.Do not hesitate to lookfor guidance, suggestions,and moral support.There are many resourcesavailable!1

Promoting Attendance: The More the MerrierThe key to a successful Reunion is people. Marketing Reunion 2012 to your classmates or association members, andplanning for an anticipated attendance number, will be the two greatest challenges. To help you forecast, pastReunion attendance figures are listed on A of the appendix.Reunion Committee: Share the Tasks, Lighten the LoadThere are many advantages to having a Reunion committee:• Involving your peers in the planning process will increase their interest in, and enthusiasm for, Reunion.• A wealth of ideas will be available to you.• Delegating aspects of Reunion planning will make your job easier.• The assistance of your committee will enable you to enjoy Reunion yourself.• A network of peers that personally encourages others to come will help boost attendance.• There is potential long-term class benefit to involving new volunteers.• You will help create a pool of names for future university leadership.A list of jobs that can be delegated:• Coordinating pre-Reunion activities andregional events• Processing registration forms andconfirmations• Organizing welcome committees• Coordinating catering and meal planning• Class column liaison• Coordinating affinity group networking• Planning a class forum• Planning entertainment• Coordinating souvenir selection• Decorating headquarters• Coordinating on-campus transportation• Managing clerksLook for peers who have skills or experiences that will make them well suited for theseroles. You will find that your Reunion committee is a valuable sounding board for importantdecisions that need to be made throughout the year.Clear and timely communication with your committee will help ensure that your planninggoes smoothly. Samples from a successful series of Reunion committee newsletters areavailable from Reunion staff. Decide on the best mode of communication early on. Pleaseadvise your Reunion program staff contact of the names and responsibilities of your keycommittee members.attendance &committeePART ONE2

Pre-Reunion Promotional Activities:pre-ReunionactivitiesPART ONE8 Ways to Build EnthusiasmThere are many ways you can inspire enthusiasm for Reunion attendance. Select a combination that will appeal toyour class or association. Here are some ideas that have worked well for others:• Pre-Reunion events. Examples: a tailgate party at a football game; a picnic or cocktail party at a local hotspot or classmate’s home; or a reception or dinner at the Cornell Alumni Leadership Conference. The CornellClub of NYC pre-Reunion happy hour is open to all classes and associations celebrating Reunion.• In addition, you can coordinate with local Cornell Clubs for regional gatherings. You can also join otherReunion classes, non-Reunion classes, or groups of your decade to make the event more fun and festive andkeep expenses to a minimum.• Affinity networking, such as classmates who share a common interest such as a fraternity and sorority, sport,or club interest, is a very successful initiative. Your team should have already selected an affinity networkingchair that will coordinate classmate contact. For more information, contact your Reunion staff contact inClass Programs.• Phonathons can be an effective way to build Reunion attendance late in the spring. Often, a telephone callwill prompt procrastinators to join the festivities. Lists can be sent to phoners to make calls from home, or aformal phonathon can be planned.• A class or association column in the Cornell Alumni Magazine is a great way to reach large numbers. Do notlet an issue go by without a paragraph about Reunion in your column! It is critical that Reunion chairs takethe initiative in getting information to the class correspondents so they may include it with their submission.• Fund-raising mailings should include Reunion information. Make sure your campaign chair is up to date onyour Reunion plans. Good communication is key to each other’s success.• E-mail is a great way to reach out individually to your classmates, but electronic messages need to be usedstrategically. They should be short and simple, and should always include a link to key websites and Reunionvolunteer contact information.• In addition to the marketing and communication plan generated by Cornell (see next page), your classcan promote its Reunion events with social media tools such as Facebook and Twitter. These interactiveplatforms are a great way to keep your classmates informed about Reunion progress and deadlines, as wellas connected to each other and their alma mater.3

Reunion Marketing Timeline:marketingtimelinePART ONEIt is crucial these mailings go out on time. People need to know about Reunion with enoughnotice to make travel plans. Your class or association should cover the cost of printing andpostage. Templates have been designed for your use, and your Reunion staff contact willwork with you to develop an e-mail marketing strategy that will supplement or replace someprinted mailings.You choose the delivery method for each mailing (where applicable).October — mailing #1“Save the Date” generic message to all classes by either postcard or e-mail blast.JanuaryAlumni Affairs places a full-page Reunion 2011 advertisementin the Cornell Alumni Magazine.Mid-January — mailing #2Class-specific Reunion details postcard or e-mail blast.Mid-late March — mailing #3“It’s Time to Register!” registrationbrochure or registration postcard.Late April to Mid-May — mailing #4E-mail blast – “Register Nowfor Early-bird Fee” (all classes).Mid-May — mailing #5“It’s Not Too Late” postcard ore-mail blast.Late-May — mailing #6Alumni Affairs sends an e-mail to allregistrants, “Can’t Wait to See You!”Getting the Word Out4

Mailing Process:Making it Easy for YouYour Reunion staff contact will help oversee the entireprocess. All fees for printing and postage will be chargeddirectly to your class or association account. Yourpresident and treasurer have been made aware of this.There is no charge for the design of your mailings; wetake care of that for you. Please refer to the Reunion2011 mailing costs in B of the appendix to help youunderstand previous costs. Remember to plan for six toeight weeks from the time your draft arrives in Ithaca tothe date the mailing is received by your peers.Registration:The Key to it AllAn organized and timely registration process is thecornerstone of a successful Reunion. You must find aregistration chair who can process your registrationsin our online registration system in the months leadingup to Reunion. This is a time-consuming commitmentand a very detail-oriented responsibility. See C and D ofthe appendix for charts showing percentage numbersof online vs. paper registrations and dates processed.This chair needs to be computer literate, and have dailyaccess to the Internet. Please see E of the appendix.To help with it all, we will offer a training session via awebinar in early spring.mailing &registrationPART ONERegistration Forms:Make it SimpleSamples of past registration forms can be found inpages F of the appendix. A registration form templatecan be personalized for your class or association by ouroffice, or you may choose to do electronic registrationonly. Do encourage your peers to register online. It is atime-saver for all involved. Those who do not registeronline will mail their completed registration forms toa lockbox in Ithaca where payments will be processedand stored in a secure electronic folder on a dailybasis. Your registration chair will have easy access tothe scanned forms, and they will input registrationinformation in the database and send confirmations.Confirmations are done electronically and automaticallyby the system. The registration chair may need to printthe confirmation and mail it to registrants who do nothave a valid e-mail address.5

arrival &budgetsPART ONEThe Big Day:Arrival at ReunionAs your classmates and their families arrive on campus, theyneed to check in at your headquarters desk and the housingassignment desk. See G in the appendix for a chart of Reunion2011 Arrival Times. Those who have not preregistered will haveto complete a registration form, plus a housing form for thosestaying in the residence halls.It is vital to keep an accurate record of classmates and guestsin the computerized registration system. Our office will usethese records to charge the university Reunion fee. In addition,Reunion records and attendance awards will be based onthis data.Reunion Budget:6Money Matters• Accounts: To handle Reunion expenses, auniversity account must be used. Our businessmanager will set one up for each class. TheTompkins Trust Company will deposit checksand credit card charges into this accountthe same day they are received from yourclassmates. See H of the appendix for theReunion Registration Process. Payments madethrough the online registration system will bedirectly deposited into your Reunion accountthrough CyberSource. (see I of the appendix)• Reunion Fee: In order to determine yourReunion registration fee, you will need toestimate all of your expenses on both a fixedand a variable basis, then divide by a realisticexpected attendance figure. Plan your Reunionbudget so that the registration fee will coveryour expenses, even if the actual attendancedoes not meet your projections. A budgetworksheet to help with these calculations is in Jof the appendix.Please note: It is important that you offer variouspackages corresponding to different lengths of stay, soclassmates can choose one that is best for them. Yourstaff contact will help you work through this plan. Besure that all fees include a fair share of the fixed costs.As a resource, a list of fees from Reunion 2011 is onpage K, and a chart showing number of attendees bypackage is on page L of the appendix (see appendix Mfor credit card fees).University Fee:Supporting the Home TeamAs you create your Reunion budget, there is a line itemon the budget that includes the university fee. This perperson, variable fee helps defray the costs of universityReunion programming, including: shuttle buses, tentparties, Reunion buttons for each class, the ReunionK-card, and other support services for which there areno class or association charges. The university fee coversmany other fixed costs associated with Reunion. Tentrental, headquarter rental, computer hardware, classvans, and on-campus class buses are just some of theexpenses covered (see N of the appendix). Universityfees will be set on a sliding scale, based on Reunionyear. Your Reunion account will be charged this feefollowing Reunion weekend.

Planning the Weekend:planning &deadlinesPART TWOThe next section of this guide will provide you with details you will need to plan an exciting, engaging, andenjoyable weekend for your classmates. Remember that the university offers a broad range of activities aroundwhich you can build your weekend (See O of the appendix.)Updates and Deadlines:Making Planning ManageableKeeping You Informed and On TrackReunion Programs will send you a monthly Reunion update between September and June. These updates willcontain current Reunion information and various information request sheets that expedite the planning process.This will help out with what is expected, and when it is due.

accessibilityPART TWOCampus Life or Alumni Affairs. A very limited numberof port-a-cribs will be provided by Alumni Affairs forsome classes. Encourage classmates to bring portablecribs, sleeping bags, or air mattresses for children whoshare a room with their parents. (There will be nofee for children sleeping on the floor in their parents’room.) No smoking is permitted in the rooms, and petsare not allowed, with the exception of service dogs.Your class Reunion account will be billed for housingfees after Reunion. Housing fees will be collected alongwith the class registration fee before Reunion weekend.In P of the appendix you will find a summary of thenumber of beds used for each class.Hotel space in Ithaca is limited! The 60th, 65th, 70th,75th and 80th Reunions are housed in the Statler Hotel;this facility is not available for any other classes. AlumniAffairs has reserved hotel rooms in Ithaca, and we willblock rooms by class. See list in Q of the appendix. Youwill need to mention in your fall mailing which hotel(s)your class has been assigned to, so that your classmatescan call directly for a reservation. In order to keep hotelbookings a fair system, rooms will not be availablebefore your fall mailing.Handicapped Accessibility:Welcoming to AllIn the past few years, Cornell has placed considerableemphasis on ensuring that the campus is whollyaccessible to all. Since many of these changes arerecent, some of your classmates may not be aware thatthey, too, can enjoy Reunion. You may want to includea statement in your mailings such as: “The Universityhas made great strides in the past few years towardcampus accessibility for all. Classmates or guests withspecial needs are encouraged to return to Reunion.” Ifyou have any questions about Cornell facilities, or if youhave needs with which we may assist, please do nothesitate to call your Reunion staff contact.In past Reunions, late-arriving classmates have checkedin to receive room keys at RPCC for North Campus andHans Bethe House for West Campus. These locationsare subject to change for Reunion 2012, but restassured we will have this service.9

meals &types of mealsPART TWOMeals:Gathering with FriendsUniversity-SponsoredAlumni Affairs will sponsor All-Alumni lunches forreturning Cornellians whose classes do not haveanother event planned on Friday and Saturday. Ifyou plan to include an All-Alumni lunch in your classschedule, please include the cost in your Reunion feeor include it as an add-on cost. 2011 prices were $15.00per adult and $7.50 per child. Because of the largenumbers involved, we do need a formal guaranteefrom each class in late May. Your Reunion account willbe billed according to this number—not the numberof classmates who actually attend. We will provide youwith lunch tickets for your classmates. If you do notinclude All-Alumni lunches as part of your program,or list them as an optional event on your registrationform, tickets will be available for sale on site, but wecannot guarantee availability.Class-SponsoredThere are four steps to planning class meals:1. Consider your assigned meal location2. Decide upon the type of meal –buffet or served3. Select a caterer4. Finalize the price and menuIndoor Meal LocationsPlease refer to R of the appendix for on-campus dininglocations and capacities.Outdoor Meal LocationsBarbecues and picnics are very popular for both lunchesand dinners. Any outdoor meals should be held undera tent for protection from rain and sun. Our officewill arrange for all tents whether they will be used atmeal sites, or at class headquarters. For possible tentlocations for dining, please refer to S of the appendix.Types of MealsContinental BreakfastsContinental breakfasts are an excellent choice for thefirst meal of the day because they are economical,their timing is flexible, and they provide an informalopportunity for mingling. With a more generousbudget, you can include fruit, cereal, and milk. Aspeople are becoming more health conscious, pleaseinclude items in the menu such as bran muffins, wholegraincereals, yogurt, and fresh fruit. Many classesenjoy planning a more extensive breakfast or brunchon Sunday morning. This can be a nice way to end agreat weekend. In the past, many Reunion chairs havereduced their breakfast counts when giving guaranteesto their caterers. Several of your guests will attend theircollege breakfasts or will be eating at the hotel wherethey are staying.Some classes have chosen to organize their ownbreakfasts. However, we have found this is very timeconsumingand stressful for the committee memberswho must bear the responsibility for planning andexecuting the meal. Although class clerks can behelpful in the preparation, serving, and clean up of ado-it-yourself breakfast, please keep in mind the manyother morning duties each one will have. If you decidenot to use a caterer, Student Management Corporation(SMC) and the following local pastry suppliers can helpyou place food and table service orders.Local Pastry Suppliers:Just DessertsWegmans105 South Fulton St. 600 South Meadow St.Ithaca, New York 14850 Ithaca, New York 14850607-272-3718 607-277-1775Tops Friendly Markets SMC2300 North Triphammer Rd. 2255 North Triphammer Rd.Ithaca, New York 14850 Ithaca, New York 14850607-257-4952 607-257-0000710 Meadow StreetIthaca, New York 14850 Ithaca Bakery607-275-8041 2250 North Triphammer Rd.Ithaca, New York 14850P&C 607-257-2255315 Pine Tree Rd.East Hill PlazaPaneraIthaca, New York 14850 748 S.

meals &checklistPART TWOLunchesClasses may plan class lunches on both Friday and Saturday,or take advantage of the All-Alumni meals on oneor both days. Many Reunion planners give their classsome free time to explore the campus or enjoy a mealat a favorite restaurant downtown or in Collegetown.Leaving lunch open on one day provides classmateswith this opportunity, and eliminates the need forthe Reunion planner to think about organizinganother meal!Food at lunch may be simple or elaborate. Generallythe atmosphere is quite casual, and outside locationsare particularly popular.Checklist forCatered MealsReceptions and DinnersReunion planners need to consider meal plans forThursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. The youngestclasses tend to plan little or nothing for Thursdayevening since the majority of their classmates do notarrive until Friday afternoon or evening. Classes beyondthe 15th Reunion, however, can expect to see manyhungry classmates on Thursday evening.As a rule of thumb, classes hold a casual welcomebuffet held right in their headquarters on Thursdayevening. Casual buffets can accommodate a rangeof arrival times, and help create a warm, welcomingatmosphere. In addition, a casual Thursday buffetshould prove to be a low-maintenance and inexpensiveaffair.• Prepare and work from a budget worksheet and an event summary sheet — refer to J and T ofthe appendix.• Plan the menu with the caterer.• Provide the caterer with a realistic estimate of attendance.• Obtain a contract with details, including times and types of service, set-up and clean-uparrangements, menu, gratuity, guarantees, and costs.• Arrange for silverware, dishes, tablecloths, etc.• Discuss special meal needs (kosher, vegetarian, low-salt) with caterer.• Arrange for decorations, flowers, balloons, music, tents, buses, and public address systems.• Arrange for the most appropriate number of buffet lines and bars to serve your guests quicklyand efficiently.• Submit a final guarantee to the caterer.• Assign a class clerk or committee member to check the site at least two hours before the mealto be sure everything is in order. Have the clerk use the event summary sheet as a reference —refer to T of the appendix.• At the event, identify yourself, or the appropriate committee member, to the catering manageras the person to contact in case of questions or problems.• Understand the responsibilities of the caterer and Alumni Affairs — refer to U of the appendixfor “Working with Your Caterer – Who Does What”.11

clerks &evaluationsPART TWO• With the exception of your Thursdayheadquarters buffet, remember that you arenot ordering alcohol for catered meals. Makearrangements so that your caterer providesrefreshments.• All alcohol must be managed by a committeemember or clerk who is at least 21 yearsold. Limited time periods for alcohol at yourheadquarters bar are strongly recommended(such as before leaving for a meal or laterin the evening when folks return and mightwant a nightcap). Limited times mean lessconsumption, less cost, and less worry.• “Significant” food ordered through CornellCatering will need to be available any time yourheadquarters bar is open. Alumni Affairs willhelp you to estimate your food item needs.• If you are planning to have hard liquor availablethrough your class headquarters bar, rememberthat you must order all quantities throughour office.• Overall, we are finding that individuals aremore health-conscious and that the days ofa long, alcohol-filled Reunion weekend havedisappeared. Consider what role alcohol willplay in your class events and what message youwant to send to your classmates.Clerks:Clerks assist with registration, help organizeheadquarters, run errands, solve problems, and dowhatever else is necessary to make Reunion successful.A list of common clerk tasks is located in X of theappendix.

Music & Entertainment:Making it LivelyArts Quad Tents: The Party ContinuesThe late evening Reunion tents will have music andentertainment Friday and Saturday from 9:00 p.m. until1:00 a.m. Alumni Affairs hires a variety of bands toplay in the Reunion tents. In 2011, music included threeenjoyable and entertaining bands: big band/swing,rock-and-roll, and salsa.Class Entertainment: The Joy of a capella!Music can really enhance your class events andheadquarters. An inexpensive means of finding someform of entertainment is to identify a classmate orgroup of classmates who would like to share theirtalents. Encourage everyone to bring their musicalinstruments and singing voices back to Reunion. TheCornell Association of Class Officers has pocket-sizedsongbooks available for a nominal fee of $1.00. If youwould like to hire a band but do not have anyone inmind, contact our office for suggestions—we maintaina list of local musicians. Alternatives range fromstudent singing groups, to local jazz, rock, and swingbands. We recommend student a cappella groups foradded entertainment. Alumni Affairs will coordinateschedules for the following a cappella groups.music &photographyPART TWOPhotography:Capturing the Moment• After Eight (women)• Class Notes (co-ed)• Hangovers (men)Finally, keep these questions in mind when arrangingfor any musical group:• Is the group self-contained? (Do they have alltheir own instruments, sound system,stage, etc.?)• Are you expected to provide meals?• Do they require a deposit before Reunion?• Do they require payment immediately followingthe engagement?• Do you need a stage for the band ora dance floor?Formal Class PhotoClasses have the option of independently identifyingand hiring their own photographer, or we can provideassistance to arrange for a group photograph taken byUniversity Photography. Photos may be pre-orderedwhen listed as an option on your registration form.Cost for the photo in 2011 was $25, including shippingand handling fees. Discuss your class photo schedulewith your Alumni Affairs contact to determine the besttime and location for your class photograph.Candid PhotographsYou can hire a photographer for all or part of theweekend, or ask a classmate to be the Reunionphotographer. This can be quite expensive, so thinkabout needs and uses for photos. Digital pictures takenthroughout the weekend are a great idea for postingon the online Reunion photo gallery.19

Recreational Activities:Fun for Allactivities &packetsPART TWOThe Robert Trent Jones golf course offers golf duringthe weekend. The Office of Alumni Affairs offers theReunion Run on Saturday morning.We offer online registration and an athletics brochureto publicize these events on the University Reunionwebsite. In addition, the Athletics Departmentsponsors horseback riding, rowing, canoeing, wallclimbing, a ropes course, a zip line, and an alumnibaseball game. These activities are also listed in theonline athletics brochure.Welcome Hosts and Packets:Nothing is more crucial to the success of your Reunion than making your classmates feel welcome. For this reason,you need to work with your clerks and recruit a select group of classmates to serve as welcome hosts. Have clerksand classmates greet people at the headquarters with smiles and helpful hands. At any function, always have agroup “in the know” looking out for classmates who may appear unsure of themselves.Classes use welcome packets to effectively orient classmates to the weekend. They should include:• a cover letter from the Reunion Chairs• Reunion button• an up-to-date class schedule• meal tickets• the Reunion Weekend schedule(see EE of the appendix)Making People Feel SpecialNOTE: Remember to include the cost ofprinting your materials and envelopesin the Reunion budget. Welcome packetmaterials (with the exception of theReunion schedule and button) shouldbe designed and copied before theweekend begins.20

Children and Reunion:All in the Cornell FamilyFor many alumni, Reunion is a family event. Weencourage families to attend Reunion weekend andwe make every effort to ensure that children enjoythemselves as much as their parents by offering theReunion Youth Program on Friday and Saturday evenings.Youth ProgramThe Youth Program provides adult supervision, dinner,structured programs, and recreational activities forchildren 6 to 15 years old. The program includes academicactivities as well as games, sports, crafts, movies, andswimming. Activities are designed to be age-appropriate;there are separate schedules and activities for children6-8, 9-12, and 13-15 years old. The program beginsat 4:00 p.m. and runs until 11:00 p.m. The cost of the2011 Youth Program was $65 per child per day. Severalpolicies are critical to the success of the Youth Program.These policies will enhance the children’s happiness andcontribute to their safety:• Children must be pre-registered to participate inthe Youth Program.• Children under 6 are not permitted to register inthe Youth Program.• Parents must accompany their children toregistration on Friday and/orSaturday.• If parents want theirchildren to accompany themto a specific class event,they must pick up theirchildren and return them totheir assigned groups. Allarrangements must be madeduring morning registrationat Helen Newman.• Class clerks are notresponsible for any child carearrangements. They shouldnot be asked to babysit oryouth &childrenPART TWOarrange for babysitters. These arrangementsare the responsibility of individual parents.• Because we must arrange for food, equipment,and youth counselors in advance, there areno youth program registration refunds after adesignated date in May.• Parents, or another adult designated byparents, must pick up their childrenat day’s end.The online Youth Program brochure and registrationwhich will be posted on the University Reunionwebsite.Ithaca Community Childcare CenterChild care is available for children ages 12 weeksto 10 years on Friday and Saturday evenings at theIthaca Community Childcare Center. IC3 is a nationallyaccredited facility located on Warren Road near theairport. The IC3 flier will be posted on the UniversityReunion website.21

teens &entertainingPART TWOTeensProviding for teenagers during the Reunionweekend presents a challenge as the Youth Programaccepts children only up to 15 years of age. TheOffice of Alumni Affairs publishes a flier, whichlists appropriate teen activities (for teens aged 16+)that take place on campus throughout Reunionweekend. Teens and their parents are responsiblefor planning their own agendas.Class Headquarters and Entertaining ChildrenLiability issues have warranted stricter guidelinesregarding programming for individuals under theage of 16. These guidelines will be covered in detailduring the Reunion Kickoff and the Cornell AlumniLeadership Conference (CALC) weekends. Waiversmust be completed by each classmate planning tobring children. (See FF of the appendix.)to have children involved by being sensitive to thenoise levels in the children’s lounge area; to roomassignments in the residence halls; and the numberof class events to which children are invited.You are now well on your way to planning a recordbreakingand immensely enjoyable Reunion! Bybeing an organized Reunion chair who plans wellin advance, you will enjoy both the process ofpreparing for your class Reunion and Reunion2012 itself.We look forwardto working with you!Because classes cannot sponsor any type of childcare in class headquarters, the burden for childcare programming arrangements does not lie withthe Reunion chairs nor their committees. However,it is still important for those classes who expectchildren in the residence halls to provide some typeof “children’s lounge” where children under the ageof 16 and their parents, or designated caregiver,can find age-appropriate activities. Consider thefollowing when planning your “children’s lounge”:budget, a comfortable and secure location, ageappropriateactivities including DVD movies for allages, TV/video games, music and book CDs, boardgames, books, art supplies, and drinks and snacks.To help you plan, see GG, the Children Attendancechart of the appendix.Remember, too, that many alumni may chooseto return without their children or may not havechildren. They may have decided to come toReunion “to get away from it all,” and arranged forchild care at home. Please respect their choice not22Staff Contacts (left to right):Back row: Katie Freyer, Pat Burns, Susan Doney, ChristineRumsey.

Katie and I have been friends since freshman year – yes more than100 years ago. We have been involved with reunion since our 10 th . We divide up thereunion with Katie doing the registration side and me doing the event planning side –although we make decisions together. Over the next few weeks I will be sending you aschedule for the weekend. We would like to meet you half an hour before the planningmeeting Wednesday June 8 th . I am not sure of the exact time but just figure half hourbefore – be there and we can find each other. Then we will head to our headquartersonce it is over to get things started. Couple things I would like to know about you:1) Do I have your names correct or do you go my a shorter name?2) Are you particularly good at event planning – I ask because I want to assign afew events to a clerk to manage and want to know if you have an interest in this –ie our Saturday night party/dinner – it is all planned but I want one of you to bethe project leader for it.3) Do you prefer early morning or later at night?4) Are there any times during the weekend that you prefer not to work?5) Anything else you want to tell me about yourself?6) What are your cell phone numbers?See you all soon,DinaDina Lewisohn ShawHome: 609 924 5966Office: 609 924 3210Mobile: 917 757 6810AA

LegalitiesReunion souvenirs are not “giveaways”. Attendees “purchase” a souvenir as part of their package price. Also,additional souvenirs may be sold during Reunion if you have a more than adequate stock. It is because of this thattrademarking is particularly important.If you are confident that you’ll have extra souvenirs, you can offer to sell additional souvenirs to classmates. Youmust sell them at cost or below in order to avoid having to deal with sales tax. You can, however, lower the priceper item a bit, or offer a “buy one get one half price” deal, but don’t lose money on your souvenirs because youcan always sell them at class events or at your next Reunion.If you want to produce something that contains photos or audio/visual recordings that are or may be copyrighted,please speak directly with your Reunion contact in Alumni Affairs before proceeding. They can tell you what canand can’t be done, and can help guide you through the production process.TimelinessWe strongly suggest deciding on your vendor(s), if not before, soon after receiving the souvenir update worksheetin January. Although you may not have made final decisions on items and quantity by the time that update is due,you should have at least discussed the items you are considering with your vendor(s) by then, so that they can giveyou a time frame needed for ordering. If an item is being produced internationally, for example, the vendor mayneed extra time to receive and finalize the order. Better early than too late!Other tips• Get quotes in writing! There will likely be additional costs, such as set- up fees and shipping. You’ll need allthis information to budget appropriately.• Consider where your souvenirs will be shipped/stored before Reunion. Some local vendors offer storage, andyou might have a local classmate willing to help.• The more specialization you request from the vendor, the higher the cost will likely be. Also, sized souvenirscan create complications. If you order sized souvenirs, carefully consider the fit and order plenty in each size.• If you are interested in shopping around for the best price, Business Services will assist with this process, even ifthe cost will come in under $20,000 (which would necessitate the bid process.)• Consider that several of your classmates will be traveling by plane and will need to take one or more souvenirson the plane.• Classes that anticipate having a lot of children may want to consider purchasing a reasonable child souvenir.• One or two souvenirs are preferable. It is better to have one nice item than five trinkets!• Souvenirs are a fixed cost in your budget. Order one per adult at the top range of expected attendance, butdo not order 100+ beyond that top number hoping you’ll break a record. You can lose money quickly thatway!• Once you decide on your anticipated souvenir cost (during budget preparation in December), stick to it!
