Dear Classmates,

The HHS class of ’70 Reunion Committee is excited to announce that we have dates and a venue for our 50^th Reunion!

Our reunion will be held from Friday, September 25, 2020 to Sunday, September 27, 2020 with the banquet taking place on Saturday night at the Hilton Charlotte University Place. We have booked the beautifully appointed Fountainview Exclusive Room for Saturday from 6pm to 12am. The evening will include a wonderful buffet, beverages, a cash bar and a dance floor. The DJ will play all of our favorites and the photographer will capture the memories for us. There is an outdoor balcony for our use and it will be a nice place to continue conversations once the dancing starts. We want to encourage you to consider booking a reservation for two nights (or one) at our discounted rate of $129 so that you can take full advantage of our gathering. We hope that we will be able to visit with you for the entire weekend and are planning some additional activities and opportunities for fun. The Hilton has provided a link for you to make your room reservations where you may also take a virtual tour of the hotel.

Important: If you prefer a handicap accessible room, make your reservation early by calling John Noonan at 704-916-2842 or 704-547-7444.

The committee wants our 50^th reunion to be the best one ever and have made every effort to keep our reunion price at $70 per person (for the class of ’70.) To secure the contract, the committee had to pay a deposit and is required to make additional upfront payments at intervals. We need the cash flow, so for those of you who can purchase your banquet tickets early, we will greatly appreciate it! The DJ and Photographer have not been selected yet so we are estimating the cost and money will be tight. As part of our search for classmates, we plan to send postcards to the addresses we have and there is also the concern of keeping our website paid for and running. We have had some offers of donations and those are very welcome! Send your banquet payment and any donations to:

• Carolinas Telco Federal Credit Union
• Post Office Box 668467
• Charlotte, NC 28266-8467

Please make your check payable to Harding High  50th Reunion, and on the memo line of your check, PLEASE put “deposit to Acct #215984-018".

As always, contact us if you have any questions or concerns.  Our 14-member committee will be busy reaching out to classmates we haven’t heard from to get a headcount. And, we still have committee seats open, if anyone interested in helping. We can’t wait to celebrate with everyone!
