Thursday Evening Meet'n'Greet

Convention Center


Thursday evening's "Meet 'n' Greet" was the kick-off of Rattler Reunion
.   Many classmates wore the  "I Survived the Rattler Reunion" tee shirt for the event.    Remember way back in 1987 when we were the host class and we promised that we would wear those tee-shirts to our 50th Class Reunion? ? ? WOW . . . where did the time go???  If you have reached the age where the memory is not quite what it should be - and just to jog the brain cells - Louis Abeyta is shown modeling the tee-shirt. 

Wonder how many of us still have our tee-shirts and who can still wear them???  To find out, check out the Thursday Evening Meet'n'Greet Photo Album.
