| Things to consider changing next time: | |
| 1 | Take a group picture early in the evening before folks leave |
| 2 | Have the Heritage Hall event Friday night and move the golf to Saturday afternoon followed by BBQ at the PGCC. |
| 3 | The volume of music makes it difficult to talk to friends. Consider background music or "unplugged" music. |
| 4 | Consider more frequent mini-reunions for groups within the class; band, yearbook, sports. etc. |
| 5 | Drop Heritage Hall in favor of a larger single space |
| 6 | Turn down the music volume (mentioned multiple times) |
| 7 | Eliminate the policemen - this can't be done due to city laws |
| 8 | Organized game similar to speed dating for couples as a mixer to get folks talking to others |
| Things NOT to change: | |
| 1 | The Memorial Service |
| 2 | Casual mixer |
| 3 | Pictures on the name tags |
| 4 | Heritage Hall location |
| 5 | Golf Tournament |
| 6 | Contact more classmates --- (I would love to get suggestions about how to be more successful) |
