First Deadline Extended to August 31st! Save $$, RSVP Today.

Dear Fellow Members of the Richmond Raiders Class of 1985:

This is the third of many reminders this year that I'm going to send you and other classmates about our upcoming 30-year class reunion.

My first reminder request in this message:  RSVP immediately your intentions about the October 16-17, 2015 reunion.  If you haven't already RSVP'd, then please do so by clicking on this link here and making your first payment (even if only $10) TODAY!

After August 31st (the original notice said August 1st) the registration fee will rise by at least $5, so please indicate you plan to attend our big reunion weekend before then if possible -- even if only a partial payment of $10 or $25.

(If you have already RSVP'd, then thank you!)

The 2nd request I have of you is to please share this email message with those classmates you've kept in touch with over the years AND to continue posting social media links (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) about our reunion so we reach as many folks as possible.  Be sure to include info on how folks can register.

By the way, more than one-third of our graduating class is receiving this same email today and another third is receiving it via Facebook or U.S. mail.  That's 2/3 of a class of 510+ graduates.  Wouldn't it be great if we had our largest reunion ever?  (Our record turnout occurred in both the 2010 and 2005 reunions where we had in excess of 125 classmates.  Other classes and I were impressed with those results.  Combined with spouses and guests, we had in excess of 200 people at each of those two reunions.)  Let's try to equal or surpass that number in 2015.

To keep updated on the class reunion as it approaches, go to this website:  http://richmondraiders1985.blogspot.com/

Get on board -- RSVP now by clicking on this link -- and spread the word ... The Class of 1985 is ready to celebrate!

P.P.S.  If you're a member of the Reunion Planning Committee, watch for an email providing details of our next conference call. The plan is for Sunday at 7:30pm, same number as before. If you don't receive the email with details by Friday morning, then email me or call 910-997-1301 to get the passcode.
