2021 REUNION NEWS
As of 6 June 2021

We are waiting for specific word from 
Dan and Susie Scull, but it now
looks probable that our 2021 reunion
will become our 2022 reunion.

If we have to meet in "even" years  
instead of "odd" ones, it's a
relatively small price to pay for
living through a pandemic which has
caused so much upheaval for so
much of our world and so many
of its citizens.

The reason Dan and Susie are thinking
in terms of April 2022 is that April is
THE month to be in Austin, and
pandemic issues may not be sufficiently
settled in time for a reunion in the
fall of 2021.

We'd recommend you NOT deal with the hotel 
right now. The Hyatt will likely still be
"Reunion Central" for April 2022, but
they have our whole reunion "on hold"
for now and will not be entertaining
new reservations. If they are "holding"
your reservation from April 2021, we'd
recommend you sit tight until we know 
what the new plan is.

The Hyatt's link is shown below --
scroll down to find it.

AND STAY TUNED TO THIS SITE!
Also, we'll email everybody when a
decision is made.

Earlier news (as of 22 Oct 2020)

Dan and Susie Scull, who have been planning our
next reunion for Austin, Texas in April 2021,
have had to make the difficult decision
to postpone this reunion.

The fact of the matter is that none of us has any idea
how long or how serious this pandemic will be, and
so it has been decided to call off our plans until 
the situation has become a little more predictable.

Dan and Susie had earlier considered having the reunion
in the fall of 2021, so as of now that is the latest plan.
We may have to alter that plan, too,
once we see where this virus is headed.

A lot of plans are "up in the air" over this virus, and
we know many of you have had to postpone weddings,
family gatherings and vacations. We are all
in the grip of this thing, and it is a major problem
that is interfering with all our lives.
The State of Texas, like so many other states,
is certainly not immune from the current spikes
in the pandemic, so we just have to play it safe for now.

We hope you have not made plans to be in Austin
that you can't cancel! Stay tuned to this site for updates,
and we'll notify everyone via email once we are able
to get back into reunion mode.

In the meantime, let's all hope for a vaccine
and a comprehensive treatment plan that
will make 2021 a lot better year
than 2020 has been!

Austin, Texas

===============================

As of 18 October, 2020:
We have just learned of the death
of our classmate, whom many of you knew as
Carol Campbell (SAS Class of 1969).
Her husband, Dave Traller, said that she had been
suffering from an infection, but while being treated in the
hospital her health deteriorated rapidly and her heart stopped. 
This happened on the morning of 18 October.
She was a wonderful person, and will be missed.

DOES work.

we can all get together again.

Speaking of getting together again,
about 35 of your classmates who once
were residents of the 
Methodist/Lutheran Hostel at
18 Farrer Road held a
"Zoom Reunion" on 9 May, 2020.

It was great to see so many familiar faces
from our SAS days, and to hear a little
bit from each person about what they've
been doing all these years.

Many thanks to Betsy Snead West and
Vivian Ho for setting up this Zoom session!

==========================

We're pretty sure you have all heard

Mr. Kasinathan.
Kasi had been teaching and coaching

If you have not seen the current Woodlands campus, it is
certainly something to be proud of: Pretty much a
state-of-the-art school. Many of us toured the facilities
while we were there, and came away very impressed.
Not only that, we were told that our "descendants"
are able to routinely beat Bangkok and all the other
American schools in the area.
