Masquerade Dance Reminders

Hello Class of BTW '68,

I hope you are as excited about our upcoming Masquerade Dance as I am.  I hear that many people are wearing costumes.  GREAT!  You know how I love to take pictures.  This is a great activity to place in the newspaper especially since it is one of our Scholarship projects.  

These are a friendly reminders that were discussed at our last meeting:

• Classmates are asked to meet at the Longshoreman at 12:00 PM to decorate.
• Ticket money will be receipted at that time.
• Unsold tickets can be turned in and additional tickets can be picked up at that time.
• Each classmate is asked to donate  three (3) sodas: two for the tables and one for the bar.
• Each classmate is asked to donate a dessert.
• All food should arrive by 8:30 PM.
• Receipts must be turned in before being reimbursed.
• The center pieces will be given away at the end of the dance so encourage our guest not to tamper with them.
• Please encourage our guest to wait until their table is called before going through the serving line.
• Guest without tickets can ask for you or Doreatha at the door.
• We all are to be cordial to one another and our guest:).
• Classmates are to remain after the dance for 30 minutes if possible to make sure all BTW68 belongings are gathered, packed away, and out of the hall.

Let's get ready for another successful Scholarship Dance!  Please call me if you have any questions or concerns.

A JOB WELL DONE!

We are entering into our 47th BTW68 alumni year.  WOW!  What a blessing. Under Rufus Jackson's leadership, we have strengthened our partnership with the Booker T. Washington High School family and earned a positive reputation in the community because of our athletic, scholastic, and faculty support of our grand alma Mata. Our family would like to thank Rufus for an outstanding job while serving five years as President of the 1968 Class of Booker T. Washington HS.
