THIS IS NO APRIL FOOLS JOKE!!!!  IT'S JUST A REMINDER...

YOU ARE INVITED TO "CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES"!

Greetings and welcome to all the graduates that have joined the site thus far!! If you haven't already, create your login, join the conversation, and share the "good times" with your fellow classmates!

We hope you will find the site easy to use and a good tool to share and connect with old friends. Remember, only classmates on this site can utilize the site and you can decide how much information you want to share with class members. So, nothing will be open or shared with the public, and you can limit what you want to share.  HOWEVER, we do suggest filling in as much information as you can, especially addresses, emails, and cell phone numbers, because more information gives the committee more ways to contact you, if needed.  And, it will also allow you to update your information as life changes in the future. Do remember, though, that at the very least provide an email for the committee to make sure you get all the information from us provided through the website.

You can help us, also, by reviewing the list of missing classmates and encouraging your contacts to add at least a current email and to update their information, or click the "contact us" link on the left side of this page and leave the missing classmate's email or cell phone number.  There's many people that we're having trouble locating information on, and we're afraid our "memory page" may not be honoring some of our fellow classmates by not having them listed to remember.  You may be the one that might just have the correct information, so your help would be much appreciated and accepted!  Most importantly, spread the word that this website is the only place to share and connect directly with the Shawnee Mission Class of 1976 and to sign up for the 50 Year Reunion!! 

We have lots planned for the weekend of September 18 and 19, 2026, but we'd first like to highlight the "piesta resistance", which is the climax to our exciting and fun weekend.  On Saturday, September 19, 6pm-11pm, don't miss the fun, as our group convenes at the beautiful Milburn Country Club, right in our old stomping grounds!  There, we'll "celebrate the good times" by enjoying food, beverages, music, dancing, conversation, and laughter.  Remember, that night will be a great opportunity, to not just celebrate with your classmates, but to have some special fun with your significant other or a favorite friend by enjoying all the wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces this venue has to offer!! Dress that night will not allow jeans, but can be business casual or more formal (you choose).

Our Friday night plans are relaxed and casual at the Fox & Hound in Overland Park , so comfort is key!!  We hope you're making arrangements and plans to attend everything right now!! And if you just can't wait to "get the party started", go to our "50 Year Reunion" page and register today!!  We're excited to see you!!!

There are 4 important things to remember (please read carefully):

1.) There will be no registrations at the door for Milburn Country Club.  You must pre-register and pay on this site by check or credit card to attend! Registration is $76/person (an homage to the class of 1976). If you're paying by check, you will need to send by July 4, 2026, to be received by July 15, 2026, so we can reconcile and make sure the information is correct on our website. Credit card payments are automated, but will end at midnight August 31, 2026. Both forms of payment will have "no refunds" given after registration. We've happily added the option to pay by check so those that want to avoid the credit card fees and allow for more dollars to go directly to the reunion event, can. However, those that want the convenience to pay by credit card can still do that too! 

2.) Also, even if you've already registered for some events, but are having second thoughts about missing something, you can go back to the "50 year reunion" page and register another event you've decided you'd like to include, at any time during the enrollment period.  

3.)  If you want to make a donation along with the event purchase and want to pay by check, the system will only allow you to do so for the event purchase.  Donations must be done through credit card only, UNLESS you want to add a message to us when sending your check indicating you have also included a donation too. Then, we'll credit that to you after we receive your check, and would thank you for that.  Otherwise, you would need to go to the donation page and utilize a credit card for the donation after signing up and paying for the event by check.  ANY questions?  Just send us a message through "contact us". 

4.) Credit cards or cash will be accepted directly for all drinks at Milburn Country Club.

5.) We have a special "room reservation" for Fox & Hound on Friday night, but all food items will be paid individually with a 20% gratuity added to each check. 

In the meantime, until you hear from us again, please have a wonderful Easter or "Spring Fling" with your family and friends during this special time of year!
