Following up on the “Tips to Rock Your Class Reunion: Part 1 https://reunionsmag.com/tips-to-rock-your-class-reunion-part-1-lisa-a-alzo-mfa , here are three more ways to make sure your class reunion is a success.
- Memory Boards, Decorations, and Souvenirs. If you use the Vivid-Pix® Memory Station https://www.vivid-pix.com/memorystation to scan your photos and memorabilia, you can do even more with them besides recording your memories into stories. Choose some favorites to create conversation starters with festive decorations such as memory boards and centerpieces, or souvenirs such as bookmarks, buttons, keychains, and more ordered through Vivid-Pix® Prints https://www.vivid-pix-prints.com/gifts.
- Games and Puzzles. Create your own trivia game with facts gathered from yearbooks or questions submitted by your classmates. Use music from the year or decade your graduated to create a Music Trivia Game and accompanying playlists for your event. See “100 Music Trivia Questions and Answers to Stump Your Friends and Inspire Amazing Playlists” https://parade.com/1143195/jessicasager/music-trivia. Crossword or Wordsearch puzzles can easily be created and printed and placed on the tables for pre-dinner fun. For ideas, see https://reunionsmag.com/crossword-puzzles-and-word-games.
- Share Your Memories. Don’t let the fun end when the reunion does. Continue the conversation online and offline. Share scanned photos or photos taken at the reunion in your “Class of __” Facebook group. You can also share photos through a service such as FileShadowÔ which lets you share collections of files with anyone with a private website gallery you can setup in minutes. You can sign up for a free trial at https://www.fileshadow.com.
A class reunion is one of those “time-capsule” moments which takes us back to our youth and provides the opportunity to reconnect and reminisce with long-lost friends, homeroom buddies, or teammates from a special place and era.
