I heard the 2010 Reunion is free to attend. Why do I need to register?

The registration fee that was charged for the 2000 and 2005 OHS Reunions has been eliminated. The reunion committee hopes that alumni who did not attend previous reunions because of the fee will attend in 2010.

It is very important for alumni, and friends, to register for the reunion. Your registration lets us know that you plan to attend so that we know how many people to prepare for.

Alumni who do not have an email address, or have not joined our email list, should have received a postcard at the end of January announcing registration.

To save money on printing and postage, communications about the 2010 OHS Alumni Reunion Weekend are being handled primarily by email, website and social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Anyone interested in receiving these electronic communications can join our mailing list at www.orrvillealumni.com

The reunion registration process is very simple. Go to www.orrvillealumni.com and click on Register to Attend. Follow the steps to enter your information. Online registration eliminates volunteer time to enter information into the registration database and also saves a considerable amount of money by not having to print and mail registration forms.

For those that prefer paper, a registration form is available to print from the website and mail in. The form is also available to pick up at Heartland Point, or from your class representative.

While there is no charge to attend the reunion and to be a spectator at all events, there is a participation or “pay to play” fee for some of the activities. For example, a $15 fee is charged to play in the alumni baseball game. The fee covers the cost of team shirts. There is no charge to watch the baseball game.

Reservations for all the “pay to play” events can be made on line at www.eventbrite.com Enter Orrville High School in the search box to view the list of events.

The reunion happens only because OHS alumni generously volunteer their time to coordinate each of the scheduled events. There is still time to add events to the reunion schedule. If you would like to discuss an idea please contact the Reunion Committee at orrvillehsalumni@gmail.com

The reunion planning committee meets the third Tuesday of each month at 6:30pm at the
high school. Anyone is welcome to attend these meetings. The next meeting will be March 16.
