For Alumni of Daniel McIntyre Collegiate Institute in Winnipeg, Canada
You guys did a great job and I enjoyed the reunion. The memorabilia display was a nice touch (I can’t believe someone kept those old DMCI newsletters!). It was nice to chat with everyone and recall all the crazy and cool things that happened during our DMCI years. It was fun trying to put names to familiar faces!
Again, thank you Corey and Bruce.
What a great night! It was awesome to see so many people I haven’t seen for years. Everyone looks great! Some haven’t changed very much (lucky for them!)
Hey everyone, Tomorrow nights the big night. the hall is booked and we WILL sell tickets at the door. But if you are able to get ahold of Maria or Brigida that would be good as well as both have some tickets left.
So, the Fort Rouge Legion at 426 Osborne Street, south of the underpass and right across from the Transit garage. 8 P.M. til I’m tired and kick everyone out cuz I gotta go to work the next day.
There will be food later in the evening as well as the usual chips at the table. I made a wall display of the school newspapers that I have so they can be looked at by one and all and Ken and Lilly are bringing photos and stuff to go along with what I have to display (and by that I mean memorabilia).
There is a door prize so save your ticket stubs.
We’ve done this with a minimum number of people doing things so everyone can have a chance to hang out with everybody that they haven’t seen in years.
The music man plays requests and at a reasonable volume so you can hear each other.
Off to see the Dust Rhinos tonight at Dylan O’connors, so anyone nedding to get in touch I’ll be there or at work tomorrow until I head to the hall.
Look forward to seeing everyone, and a very big thank you to all of you who bought your tickets ahead of time.
Hey I had to get a phone call from Ken Beal in REGINA!!!!!! to find out about this site and a social. Well better late than never. Where can I get tickets?
Hi Bruce how are ticket sales?? Does it look like alot of people are going?
Next Saturday is the big night. Both Maria and Brigida have tickets, but if you can’t connect with them get ahold of me and I’ll help you out. When Friday comes I really can’t be available so contact me as soon as you can.
Brigida at Sorrentos on Ellice. Maria at 697-3172. Bruce at 338-6915.
For those of you not able to meet with me you can get tickets from Maria Constantino at 697-3172. I f you are downtown during business hours you can reach me at 989-1859.
Monday October 30th is the last real chance I will have to meet with people otherwise so these are your best best.
I have been asked about holding tickets at the door. The truth is I really need to presell tickets to get an idea of how much food we have to order, as well as how much the bar will have to make to break even. If the bar makes $1,000 in sales then the hall rental is free, which would make a smaller turnout less of a worry. So, buy beforehand and we might even raise a bit of money for the Daniel McIntyre program I will talk about at the social.
Oh almost forgot, there is a doorprize, so keep your ticket stubs, but there is no raffle - we didn’t want people having great conversations with long lost friends getting disrupted by someone trying to push tickets!
Anyone interested in helping out at the social can join me at 7 p.m. at Sorrentos on Ellice. I should be there for about an hour or so. I will also have some tickets if anyone wants to drop by and pick some up.
