Robots will replace many repetitive jobs in this country and around the world. Fortunately, the job of a reunion organizer is not a job slated for automation any time soon.
This post is not intended to make light of the huge number of jobs now being accomplished by robots or the millions of jobs robots which they could potentially do in the future. That is a serious issue which must be addressed by our society, but not in this post.
Our RHS Class of 1977 possesses a good number of people who at one time or another have been bitten by the bug to organize or be a part of a reunion committee. Next year's 40th reunion team leans heavily on all the efforts of previous reunions. If you are lucky that is how it falls and your reunions only grow better with time. The intangibles are what can be passed down through the years, another name for mistakes and successes. Robots can't pass on what they have learned as well as humans and in my lifetime probably never will.
Hope you are planning on making it to our BBQ next summer. Details will follow in the new year. Just mark down Saturday, July 22nd 2017 as the day we next gather as a class and marvel at how we have changed through the years. By a 40th reunion nobody truly kids anybody as to whether they look the same as they did in high school. Though we all can reflect upon what is different now, who we miss, and with any luck what our 45th reunion will be like.
Our 40th reunion will have feature (Rain of Shine) the original members of the band who played so well at our 35th reunion. We will also have a few surprises which we'll become public the sooner we get to the big day. You will not be disappointed!
