TO OUR CLASSMATES Thank you to all of you who travelled from near and far to be part of this reunion! Your enthusiasm made the planning and preparation a lot of fun! Our special thanks to those of you who contributed to our classmate memorial fund. The beautiful Ginkgo tree planted at West High will be an enduring tribute to those classmates and friends who are !no longer with us. It takes a village to pull off a weekend-long party, and in addition to those of you who helped out over the weekend, we had a supportive team working hard for the months !leading up to the reunion: Vicki Leonardi McCoy helped to find classmates in cyberspace, and Beth Bales Olson !got the word out to the local papers to spread the reunion news. Ellen McCrimmon Achilles coordinated the purchase and planting of the memorial tree, !and created the lovely tribute in the lobby at Orchard’s. !When we “teed up” the idea of a golf outing, Jim Haried made it happen. Decorators extraordinaire—Beth Burckhard Nelson, Barb Davis Ahasic, and Susan !Kinsman—painted the weekend red & blue. Bubble letters and bandanas still rule! Andy Olson Magee helped us march to a different drummer in the Homecoming parade. !(A first for many!) !Peter Wulff “streaked” to our aid with printing (and a little painting too). Sarah Hoban wins the award for perseverance for getting our reunion information onto !the alumni website. Greg Hurst and Lauren Leimbach gladly seized the opportunity to share new perspectives on their graduation speeches, though Lauren shared her thoughts from afar !due to the air traffic “snafu.” Jim Bender and Brudd Rohr, as always you came through. Thank you for sharing your !humor and friendship. You are two in a million! And finally, to our angel investors whose help ensured this weekend would happen, and !to Barb and Leo Ahasic of Valley Linen Supply for the colorful linen donation. !We hope you enjoy this reunion memento! Roll On You Blackhawks! Judy and Elizabeth ! ! Thursday, September 25 Homecoming Parade! Friday, September 26 Varsity Football at Ken Zimmerman Field, West High Spoiler Alert – WE WON!!! After-Game Party at Two! Brothers Roundhouse Saturday, September 27 Golf Outing at Orchard Valley Golf Course Dedication of the Class Memorial Tree and School Tours THE BIG EVENT! At Orchard’s ! ! ! ! ! ! IN MEMORY OF OUR FRIENDS AND CLASSMATES The ginkgo tree is thought to be the oldest tree on earth. It existed as long as sixty million years ago. The ginkgo tree is considered to have special significance as a symbol of hope and friendship. Because of the divided shape of the leaf, the ginkgo was especially favored as a symbol of the dialectical yin and yang, the female and the male principle, joy and sorrow, life and death. ! ! Paul A.

IRVIN TRANSITION REPORT LETTER FROM the Mayor Dear Friends, The Irvin Transition Team exemplifies what can clearly be accomplished when citizens are given the opportunity to engage with local government and lend their expertise, experience, desires and ideas to our city’s growth. Over 200 city of Aurora stakeholders participated in the creation of this transition report with the idea that their recommendations would influence and be an integral component of future governmental decisions. These recommendations were so much in alignment with my vision for the city of Aurora and my goals to achieve that vision that this transition report has evolved into the City of Aurora’s Action Plan. For example, during my campaign and early in my administration, I spoke regularly of the need to improve the educational and career outcomes of Aurora’s youth. I believe our young people should be offered many academic and skills development opportunities that will ultimately lead to successful careers.
