SCHEDULE UPDATE TO REUNION

Hello everyone! Due to circumstances beyond our control, the Homecoming Game has been changed from the original date of October 14th to sometime in September. In addition, the home game against Wyandotte that night has been changed to an away game. We were unable to arrange for the game to be moved back as a home game. Therefore, THERE WILL BE NO HOME FOOTBALL GAME AT PIONEER STADIUM ON FRIDAY (10/14) AT 7:00 PM (spread the word).

To make things simpler, WE WILL START OUR MEET AND GREET AT HIGH NOON SALOON EARLY ON FRIDAY NIGHT, at 8:30 pm instead of 10:00 pm (also spread the word). All schedules and RSVP forms have been updated to reflect this change.

Sorry about the last minute change, but at this point, it's too late to change anything because a lot of people have already arranged travel plans and time off work. Everything else on Saturday is still the same! See you in 5 weeks!!!! :)

WINNING!

Hello Class of 2001 Pioneer Alum! This will (hopefully) be the official website of our 10 YEAR CLASS REUNION!! First thing's first: WHEN WILL IT BE??? That is yet to be determined, but let us know what you think by VOTING in the poll on the right! The most logical choices are probably either 1) sometime during the 2011 football season or 2) during December when more people may be around the area for the holidays. But, the downside of option 2 is that people may be busy with family obligations. Feel free to make your own suggestions too in the survey.

Also, please fill out the contact form (on the right). I promise I won't stalk you or sell your information to anyone. :)

This site will be a definite work in progress, but I'll try to keep everyone updated as more concrete plans are developed...just trying to get things off the ground for now. Looking forward to hearing from you/hopefully seeing you soon! If you have any questions/comments/concerns, I've set up a Reunion Contact email HERE. Otherwise, stay tuned for more fun things to come! PIONEER PRIDE!!!
