🎉 𝗟𝗦𝗟 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 '𝟴𝟱 𝗥𝗲𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱 🎉
📅 Friday, July 25 – Sunday, July 27, 2025
📍 Edmonton, AB | Chateau Louis and other locations TBD
Hey friends!
It’s hard to believe, but here we are—celebrating our 𝟰𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗿𝗲𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻! I’m actually proud of us for doing it in our 40th year instead of continuing our tradition of celebrating a year late!
And to be honest, I was surprised to hear my sister’s class only had a 10-year reunion and never did anything again. That made me even more grateful for our group and more inspired to make this happen.
We’re putting together a 𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗱-𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱 to reconnect—nothing fancy, just time to catch up, share some stories, and enjoy being together.
Don Martin, Mona Montgomery and I are flying in along with hopefully a few other out fo towners.
𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗼'𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗮𝘂 𝗟𝗼𝘂𝗶𝘀 𝗛𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗹 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺𝘀 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. We'll share specific booking details soon for anyone interested in securing a room there.
Planning these things can be a lot of work, and since we haven’t had a ton of input yet, I’m going with what’s easy and realistic for now—but of course, I’m open to ideas or suggestions if you have them and could definitely use help spreading the word!
𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄:
🟡 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝟮𝟱 (𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴)
A casual, optional welcome mixer for anyone who wants to say hello early.
Likely at Julian's Lounge & Patio at Chateau Louis – drop-in style.
Order what you like, no host – just a chance to ease into the weekend.
🟡 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝟮𝟲 (𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴)
This is the main event – a relaxed evening where we can actually hear each other talk.
𝙑𝙚𝙣𝙪𝙚: Crowne Suite at Chateau Louis
𝙏𝙞𝙢𝙚: 6:00 PM – 11:00 PM
Cash Bar. Food TBD based on the number of people who respond. Cost to be confirmed once we have numbers but nothing crazy.
RSVP will be required and would love to get an idea of head counts.
🟡 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝟮𝟲 (𝗗𝗮𝘆𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 – 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹)
Low-key, especially for those flying in, to meet up during the day. Totally informal—no commitments or plans, just options.
Details to be provided closer to the date.
🟡 𝗦𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝟮𝟳 (𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴)
Optional Morning Mass for those that want to attend together followed by one last chance to gather before heading out.
Casual pay-your-own brunch at either the Julian’s lounge or Royal Coach Dining Room (Chateau Louis).
Will need numbers of interested people to reserve space.

We’re still finalizing details, but the biggest thing right now is getting a sense of who’s coming and which days you might join. Even a “"𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗯𝗲” is helpful!
Please click “𝗚𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴” or “𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱”. This helps us make better choices on spaces and food—and keeps you in the loop.
And a quick, important step: Once you've RSVP'd, please head over to the 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁'𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. Let us know there which specific days/nights you're most likely to attend. This really helps us plan!
𝗟𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝘀 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 / 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀.

Always appreciated! If you’re open to helping in any way, big or small, feel free to comment or message me.
𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱!
We know not everyone is on this page or in the Messenger chat. If you’re in touch with someone who hasn’t heard about the reunion, please share this with them and share their contact info with us!
More updates coming soon — but for now, save the date, spread the word, and let’s make this 40th one to remember.
