2012 Reunion Details

Welcome Class of 2002! The purpose of this Blog is to provide each of you with tentative information on the details of our 10 year high school class reunion. I have set up a survey that I would like each member of our class to please complete so that we can have an accurate account of who will and will not be able to attend the reunion in California in July 2012, and if there are pockets of our class that would like to set up mini-reunions in different locations.

If you have not completed the survey, please paste this link into a new web browser:

The 2 main factors that have been considered in planning our reunion are COST & LOCATION. 

LOCATION:
California seems like the ideal central location as our class resides from Europe to Asia to America. From the information that has been provided on our current class demographics 58 live in the USA, 2 in the UK, 1 in Thailand, 1 in Sweden, 1 in South Africa, 7 in the Philippines, 2 in New Zealand, 5 in Australia, 1 in Canada and the rest are not specified. Of the 58 in the USA, the highest majority is California. This information is what was given to me by the Alumni office at Faith Academy.

COST:
The reality is that just about everyone that decides to attend our class reunion will be required to purchase at least one airline ticket. In addition to this, the price of hotels and food in California, (especially closer to the coast) can be very expensive, and the cost can add up very quickly. With this in mind, the goal is to keep all other required expenses to an absolute minimum.

Right now the tentative details for our class reunion are:

DATES: July 20-22, 2012
LOCATION: California Baptist University, Riverside California
COST: $150 per person total for the weekend. The cost includes 3 days/2 nights in an apartment (includes linens), full meals each day, and use of campus facilities (for meetings and fun). 
Children 4-10 years old are $100/weekend.
Children 3 and under will have free meals, and if you have a crib (or Pack N Play) for them to sleep in then housing is free as well. If they require a bed it is $40 ($20/night).

The CBU website is www.calbaptist.edu. The Riverside zip code is 92504.
