Enjoy the Full Slate of Reunion Events this Weekend!
Fear not, because there's a lot more going on this weekend in addition to the main event itself, Saturday night.
Friday night, beginning at 6:30 p.m., head over to Back Street Grill (401 Snow Hill Road, Salisbury) for a Welcome-Back Mixer! There's no cover, so stop by and have dinner or a drink with other class of '99 alumni.
Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., stop by Schumaker Park in Salisbury for a picnic for alumni and their families. This is a family-friendly event, so bring your spouses/significant others and kids! The basics (hot dogs, hamburgers, chips) will be provided, but anyone who wants to is welcome to bring a covered dish or dessert to share.
Saturday night, from 6 to 10 p.m., is the reunion itself, at the Flanders Room of the Wicomico Civic Center. As a reminder, attendance is limited to those who pre-ordered tickets, and the event is BYOB.
Finally, Saturday night, post-reunion, head over to Brew River (502 W. Main Street, Salisbury) for an after party. Please note, Brew River's standard cover charges might apply.

The class reunion committee and I would like to thank everyone who has purchased tickets to our reunion on Oct. 24! We've had an amazing response, and it promises to be a very fun event.

Also, if you forgot to buy your ticket before the deadline, we're going to leave the PayPal link active for the rest of today, so if you have a last-minute order, just click on the PayPal link to the right side of this page and order your tickets there before midnight tonight.
We're looking forward to seeing everyone in two weeks!

Ticket orders must be mailed by Thursday!
This is the final reminder that, if you are ordering your class reunion tickets by mail, they must be postmarked by Thursday, October 1. (And if you are ordering via PayPal, you have less than two weeks to do so: online ticket sales end October 10.) As a reminder, your ticket includes a buffet style dinner and non-alcoholic beverages, entertainment, and gifts, and because we need to give the venue a definitive headcount two weeks prior to the event, you will NOT be able to purchase tickets after the deadline or at the door.
For more information about ordering your tickets, click here. We look forward to seeing everyone at the reunion on October 24!
Thanks,

Some early news about the reunion, and a request for help (*Updated*)
I am pleased to announce that the Class Reunion Planning Committee met for the first time last weekend, and quickly got down to business. While there are many important decisions that will be made in the next few months (including the event's venue), one of the first items on our agenda was picking a date for the reunion.
It was decided that the reunion will be held in mid-October, to coincide with WiHi's homecoming. (When we contacted WiHi to find out when exactly that was, we received two different answers, so once we get a definitive answer from them, we will pass that information along so people can plan accordingly.)
Also, be on the lookout in the next few days for a survey asking you about your opinions and preferences regarding the reunion. Your participation will help us immensely as we go forward.
And now, we turn to you with a request for help. We currently have contact information for 96 alumni. This is a FANTASTIC start, but we want to find as many members of our class as possible. Therefore, if you have any information about the following people, please let us know. Ideally, we're looking for their phone numbers and/or email addresses, but ANY information will help:

Brookes Harmon
It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you of the tragic death of our classmate Brookes Harmon.
Details are still sketchy, but initial reports state that Brookes was visiting the home of some acquaintances when three men entered the home and proceeded to bind and accost Brookes for about 20 minutes, while forcing the home's residents into a separate room. When the residents of the house emerged from the room after the men left, they found Brookes unconscious and not breathing. He was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
According to media reports, the first suspect is described as a black male, about six feet tall, between 250 and 300 lbs., who was wearing a black hoodie. The second suspect is described as a black male, also about 6 feet tall, between 200 and 250 lbs. The third suspect is also described as a black male, but no further details were available regarding the third suspect.
Per the Daily Times, "[a]nyone with information about this crime is urged to contact Maryland State Police at 410-749-3101 or Crime Solvers of Wicomico County at 410-548-1776. A cash reward of up to $1,000 is available for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Callers may remain anonymous. The investigation is continuing."
On a personal note, I'm completely shocked and saddened by this terrible news, as I'm sure we all are. I had not seen Brookes since we graduated, and I was looking forward to catching up with him at our reunion later this year. I will always remember him as an extremely friendly guy with a wicked sense of humor, who loved making people laugh.
Please keep his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Bryan Anderton
President, WiHi Class of '99
