  West Chicago Community High School Class of 1963

Reconnect during our 60th year since graduation.
First up:  Winter Luncheon


Picture

We're back! Join us at 12:30pm Saturday February 11, 2023
on the Fox at Pal Joey's, 31 N. River Street, Batavia

As in the past we'll enjoy a buffet with Pan Pizza, House Romaine Salad, Pasta Marinara, 
Cola/Diet Cola/Lemonade. $15 pp. Cash bar.

We've reserved the private dining room that seats 20-25; there is plenty of overflow space in the bar area. Since our 2018 class reunion we've had personal good times and bad times, lost several classmates and lived through covid. Now, let's simply enjoy an afternoon to meet face-to-face while comparing grand children (great-grand children?), pictures, share stories and celebrate the start of another year in this world we love.

We will consider and get feedback on several other potential 60th year events:
Reunion 2023
Summer Picnic
WeGo 2023 Homecoming




Change in Website Provider

Square, parent company to our website provider Weebly, is now transfering accounts to work under the umbrella "Squareup.com".  Should be an interesting time and learning experience for the webmasters. We're told we will now have access to additional apps and features that could be used to enhance our site and will be exploring those in the coming months. For now, we've created our new Square account and are working to assure ourselves and our classmates that wego1963.com continues to load and work exactly the same as when it was just a Weebly site. Let us know if you have trouble logging in or browsing our class website after the Squareup switch is thrown on October 6th.   Thanks, Your webmasters....

To Do or Not To Do

60 Year Reunion? Over the last year and a half several early notices were published after wego1963 received questions from classmates. As members of the planning committee for both our 50 and 55 year reunions we know it takes months to plan. Presuming a June 2023 date let's decide Yes or No. From there we publish results and may need to form a committee and sort through the options. To get the ball rolling please log in to your account then go to our Reunion '23 survey. 
Re-written Taking Pulse paragraph to reflect TO call for a joint class lunch or dinner date, etc TBD. This will go on the Home page above the Smith notice. Also requires an new recent site changes note.

Taking the Pulse

Conversations are underway to consider a Class of 1963 gathering similar to our annual winter luncheon. Indoors or out? Summer-Fall-Winter-Spring? Day or night? In combination with the Class of 1964? Tom Overton, Reunion Committee Chair, has already sent emails seeking feedback. Tom has also posed the question about planning a 60 year reunion. Check the Class Gathering page and pass along your thoughts please.


This is the draft paragraph for possible use when further work on reunion is initiated
60 year Class of 1963 Reunion? Yes, it's early, but your thoughts will help. Shall a Planning Committee be formed? Moving forward would you be interested in a combined reunion with the Class of 1964? Tom Overton has taken the initiative once again and would like some feedback. We published Tom's initial thoughts January 7, 2021 now adding text of his April 6th email.
