TOP 25 GOLDEN OLDIES
We want to make sure our DJ plays your favorite ‘50s tunes at the Reunion dinner dance. So here’s your opportunity to make requests by voting for your five ‘50s favorites. Email a list of your five favorites to jonbittmann@hotmail.com, so we can determine our class’s Top 25 Golden Oldies. We’ll publish a list of the leaders every month and then announce – and play – the winners all through the evening of October 18.
We're going to list all nominations with names of the nominators. First names and lists you see will be the most recent arrivals. Remember, all who submit nominations have a chance to win a unique prize that recaptures the Fifties in a really fun way.Bob Mielbrect:
