The 2nd annual (2010) Graduates Picnic will be at Hope Ranch 
on Thursday, September 16 at 5 p.m.

Join the Graduates for a scrumptious catered picnic (baby back ribs and chicken) at the campground in Hope Ranch with tables for up to 70 guests.

Bring your own wine, beer or drink of choice  Be sure to put your name on the drink that you are bringing.  Water will be provided.

Cost is only $5.00 with the remaining costs hosted by the Graduates.   Guests may be accommodated (@$12.00 ) only if space exists.

RSVP to Darlene Amundsen.  After confirmation, mail you check, made out to The Graduates for $5 per person to Sandy Charron.
Directions will be sent with confirmation.

We know there will be a wait list for this event, so your check MUST BE RECEIVED BY SEPTEMBER 9th or your spot will be given to the next person on the list.  If you have a reservation and are not able to be there, be sure to call Darlene, so someone  from the wait list may attend.

Remember to bring a jacket, as it will get cool after the sun sets.  Car pooling is strongly suggested, as parking is limited.  It is a short walk to the beach to see the sunset.

The weather broke just in time for the Graduates to hold their picnic at Hope Ranch under clear and sunny skies. We once again enjoyed the barbeque guys who served us spareribs, tritip, bread and salad with cookies for desert. For starters their famous sausage was passed around while we partook in wine and conversation. Michael Holland provided us with some great guitar music through the late afternoon and early evening event.

All of this was made possible by a great committee headed by Darleen Amundsen. The committee members were: Sammi Butler, Sandy Charron, Michael Koelsch & Elle Sternberg, MaryAnn Langworthy, Fran Sanders, and Linda Wahl.

Including the committee there were 87 Graduates in attendance as follows:

Alan Alaimo, Fred & Roxanna Anson, Gary & Kathy Bielen, Joe & Pat Boris, Nan Cisney, Polly Clement, Janet & Richard Danehy, Ginny Doehler, Carole Edwards, Al & Shirley Eichstaedt, Patience & Wayne Foglesong, Mary Freericks, Ellie & Ron Freese, Doris Frey, Genie Gable, Pat Green, Vic Cole, Marie Paule Hadjdu, Christine & Michael Holland, Dave & Nan Holt, Roger Hoyt, Carole Hudson, Rhonda Huesgen & Larry Matthews, Patty Jacquemin, Diane Karis, Madeleine Kern, Lee Koranda, Nancy & Norm Kozak, Gary & Mary Lou Kravetz, Catherine Leffler, Bob & Ellen Lilley, Cindy & Jerry Lomonaco, Robin Madden, Soosan Marshall, Mike McCaleb & Berkeley Meigs, Florence Michel & Dale Charpentier, Bob Miles, Dottie Milici, Richard Miller, Judy & Tom Nilsen, Mary Janet Paisley, Bob Johnson, Linda & Richard Ring, Ann & Carl Robinson, Melik Sardar, Richard & Simone Schapker, Louise Tighe, Lilo Trudell, Bill & Kathy Weber, Lynda Whitley & Peter Schenek, Charlie & Patty Walworth, Keegan Ennis, Frank & Parm Williams, Ann & George Wolverton.
