For information on the Class of '63 50th Reunion, please visit 63.hixreunion.com

Here's a Class of '63 Reunion update: We're very excited to let everyone know that we'll be adding 1 or 2 more events to the Class of 1963 50-Year Reunion schedule in the next few weeks and the reunion is turning into a weekend that will be remembered! All 1963 classmates and their guests are encouraged to send in their ticket order as soon as possible so the committee can get a better handle on the total number of gifts, premiums and prizes to order. Also by replying early, we can give our tour "hosts" some idea of the number of participants and we can get additional and better "perks" from the Plainview Holiday Inn.If you received a printed invitation in the mail, an order form and reply envelope was included. Don't wait. Send it back today! In addition to payment by check, payment can be made by credit card or through PayPal. If you received an email, there is a link to a downloadable order form that can be printed. There is also a link on the official reunion web site: http://63.hixreunion.com. We would also like to clear up some confusion regarding the dates of our reunion. The "one and only" Class of 1963 50-Year Reunion is happening the weekend of October 11-13, 2013, with the main event scheduled on Saturday evening, October 12th. There are a few people on the social media sites talking about multi-class reunions, rock-n-roll reunions, etc. with dates ranging from June through September. Don't be confused. Our reunion is definitely a "go" and is "on."We look forward to seeing everyone in October!

Hicksville Vietnam War Era Memorial - PROJECT UPDATE

With official site approval for the Memorial gained in June from the Hicksville Public School Board, we are now firming up fundraising plans.  The name Hicksville Vietnam Era Memorial, LLC has been chosen for our not-for-profit (NFP) entity, a tax identification number has been obtained and we have petitioned the IRS for NFP status.  Once this status is obtained, a bank account will be opened by Bill Walden and fundraising for the Memorial will proceed under Bill's leadership. 

We were also pleased to add Terry Wallace, HHS 1966, to the Project Team in July.  As a Vietnam veteran who was wounded in action, Terry has been on our Confirmed List of Names for quite some time, but only learned of the Project this past month and has already been of significant help to us.

For additional details, please see this month's complete update by clicking on the Honoring Our Veterans page of this newsletter.

On behalf of the Project Team,
Joe Carfora, HHS '62
