We'll have a room all to ourselves so we can move around and get to meet everyone. We also have some organized activities and a raffle designed to keep us from becoming "wallflowers"..Ha, remember that word?? we just want everyone to have a memorable time and so our name badges will also have our senior pictures and they should be part of your weekend apparel; that should help refresh everyone's memory. you can get your badge from a committee member upon arrival.

Sunday, august 2 picnic time! at stiglmeier park located at 500 losson rd, cheektowaga we will have plenty of picnic space available with 2 shelters. this picnic is open to all alumni of cchs; that means your brothers, sisters or friends that you have who are a "warrior" ought to be invited, by you! as of right now, it's planned that everyone bring their own food and beverage. after our big night out last nite, an "18 yr old", oops, i mean a 68 yr old, ought to be able to have gotten enough sleep to be able to function somewhat for us to start by noon...yes? until whatever time your body gives out....Ha! Don't forget to wear your name badge so we know who you are! ( and maybe where to send you at the end of the day, if you fall asleep).
Monday, August 3 Anyone who (is impulsive) & wishes to, can join us at the buffalo waterfront for some unorganized activities. How long has it been since you've been there?...if ever. we'll have some brochures and pamphlets on the table at the icebreaker & the banquet for you to choose from. this is not a test, but is something for you and friends to figure out.
some of the above is subject to adjustment as we get closer to the weekend events.
