On behalf of organizing committee, I hope that you are planning to return to Illinois Wesleyan University on October 5-7th to celebrate the best class in IWU history (the only class to be ranked #1 in the Midwest for four consecutive years).<\/p>\n<p>We have planned a host of great activities for you and your family. We\u2019ll be hosting a special Happy Hour for the Class of \u201993 in downtown Bloomington on Friday night from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. at Tony\u2019s Tacos. This will be a great chance for us to catch up and reminisce about our college days. We\u2019re looking for special pictures from our college days so please send your favorite college photos to Melissa (Gadrinab) Beaver at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:shesacontender@hotmail.com\">shesacontender@hotmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, we will have a special reunion tailgate at the football game and our reunion celebration on Saturday evening. A full schedule of reunion activities can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iwu.edu\/reunions\">here<\/a>.\u00a0Please make sure to register and check out the Alumni website to see all of our classmates who are planning to attend. I\u2019d also encourage you to reach out to your IWU friends and encourage them to come back for the 25th reunion.<\/p>\n<p>We are hoping that our class will make a splash by endowing a scholarship in honor our 25th reunion. We need to raise $25,000 to create a scholarship that will be awarded annually to help a student attend IWU but we need your help! I hope you will join me in giving a gift to IWU in honor of our reunion ad to help the next generation of IWU students.
