    Hey Folks

    Im organising our 25th school reunion and have had a great response so far. We have found people through FB and word of mouth but naturally there are always ones that we just cant contact. Any ideas?

    Can I post the details here in case some of them are boardsies or is that not allowed?

    Thanks :D

    How about contacting the school for the list of everyone who was in your year? I'm in the middle of organising mine. Not on my own though there is a lot of contacting to do so better off to spread it out with a few other people. Good Luck !!

    Have you Googled their names? Use site:ie to narrow it down if the results aren't specific enough. You'd be surprised by how easy it can be to find someone on Google. Look out for phonebooks, LinkedIn, blogs, local newspapers etc.

    We have the list of names already so are working through that. Have been googling but the girls are married so they aren't found. Guys are easier to find when I google (as they say!)

    Have you put an ad in the paper?

    Maybe stick a little advert in some of the free ads papers and also start up a Facebook Group and call it "X School Class of 19-- Reunion".

    Indeed. Nothing against my ex classmates but I've never been to one and I have no particular inclination to do so :)

    This is a very good idea. I had to do this a couple of years ago and it's a real pain in the b&tt. At the time all those friends/schoolfriends united sites were big. Put up an announcement on your school's page on those sites - a lot of people register for updates and it might help to drive a few out of the woodwork.
