62 classmates responded to the online survey.
Below is a specific breakdown of the responses:

joint - 9
separate - 33
no strong opinion - 20
* Would you prefer the main Sat. reunion event to be:
informal picnic - 39
formal evening - 18
either - 4
other - 1
* If you have other main event suggestions, please enter here:
local alumni houses
dinner cruise on boat e.g. Lake Ticonderoga on Lake George
include a softball game
get some interesting venue
* If feasible, should we strive to have a live band perform at the Sat. main event -- e.g. band featuring NHS classmates?
yes - 46
no - 16
* Should a Friday night informal gathering at a local "watering-hole" be organized as we have previously?
yes - 46
not necessary - 16
* Would you like a tour of the high school to be offered sometime over the weekend?
yes - 31
not necessary - 31
* Should we organize an event for Sunday afternoon?
yes - 15
not necessary - 47
* If so, suggested Sunday planned activities
service project
brunch
river walk or stockade walk
* Other suggested activities for the weekend?
pot luck at NHS
organize a reunion hotel for out-of-towners
* What would be your max ticket price per person for the Sat. main event (assume cash bar) -- above which it would deter your attending?
$35 - 4
$40 - 12
$75 - 20
$100 - 12
$125 - 2
$ 150 - 12
* Are you interested to help organize and plan the event? (Out-of-towners welcome, but again, we really need some local folks!)
yes - local 10
yes - out-of-town 8
* We currently have about $450 in our class treasury. If we need to request some advance monies for deposits, etc., (e.g. $25 - $50), would you be willing to do that? (Assume it would be deducted from your eventual ticket payment)
yes - 56
no - 6
* This may seem like a rather odd question after filling out the above ones, but getting a preliminary sense of commitment re: attendance down in "black & white," even this far out, can be helpful for planning. Of course, we realize that future personal realities might alter expectations, but at this time, are you inclined to attend a 50th reunion -- regardless of how/when we decide to celebrate?
yes w/o guest - 22
yes + guest - 30
not sure - 9
no - 1
* Feel free to add any other suggestions or comments here:
if there is a band, make sure there is an area where others can still talk
invite faculty/admin that are still around
if a sit-down event, rotate seating during meal
have a joint reunion with '70-ers but in 2021
consider joint reunion with Class of '72
