This year again there was many new faces. Attendance this year started slow, but the final turn out was very large - probably over 200 people.
We had many people travel hours by automobile, and even many others that took plane rides to visit. This year we have our first international visitor!
I had the privilege of hanging out and chatting with so many people from my childhood and adolescents. It was like Facebook, only live and in living color! If you missed it this year, you really must try to come next year as I cannot explain the thrill you are missing.
Please look for new pictures and site updates very soon.

A Special Note from Michael O'Leary: (2011 UPDATE!)
Hi everybody. Hope you all had as great a time at the 2011 / 6th annual reunion as I did. Every year there's another surprise that blows someone's mind and this year it was my turn: My head almost exploded when I saw Pat Delaney!
Good news financially too: We had a little money leftover from last year [$378 that I had forgotten about - sorry] plus our collection from this year [$701] giving us over $1K! This means next year's rental of the pavilion is paid for [assuming there won't be another 300% hike in park fees] and we can renew the website for a good few years to come. As long as we don't burn through our current surplus of $1,079 we won't need to take up a collection until our 8th annual reunion in 2013!
Once you're at the WebFiles site, just click the upload link on the upper right hand side of the screen and start uploading.
This link will only be available for three months from today, so please do not hesitate to upload as soon as possible.
Shortly, I'll be posting the pictures that are uploaded here as well as those I receive in email and snail mail. However, if you want to see some really great pictures NOW please watch the whole video below (from 2009)… at the end of the video there is a wonderful montage of some of the best pictures that were taken last year.
Watch for the new 2011 pictures very soon, and I've already notice some popping up on facebook.
This is the 2009 video -- watch for the new video very soon. If you have trouble viewing the video trying clicking here for help.
If this video doesn't entice you to attend next year, nothing will. If you only look at one thing on this site, PLEASE make it this video!!! You have to watch it till the end credits to get the full gist. The video is approximately 30 minutes long so grab a cup-o-java and chill. I personally promise you'll not be sorry.
Big thanks goes out to Mitch Barr for a tremendous effort in creating this video. My brother from another mother. ;>
Till next year... Reuben
