Wakefield Class of 1960
Reunion Committee
The REUNION COMMITTEE's makeup and function (as of 25 Sep 2011)
The REUNION COMMITTEE is made up of Class of '60 Warriors who are committed to planning interesting
get-togethers for our classmates, and otherwise keeping them engaged, in-touch, and informed through a variety of
channels. The Committee has been composed of 11 members for the past several years. However, early in
2011, Jim Sioris indicated he could no longer be involved, and so the Committee put out the word that it was looking
for another classmate to incorporate into the group. In late September 2011, Dick Wheeler was voted onto
the committee.
The primary requirement for serving on the committee is a commitment
to keeping abreast of and actively participating in committee activities via various media (telephone, e-mail, proxies,
etc.) Immediate proximity to the northern Virginia area is helpful, but not necessarily a mandatory
qualification.
The Reunion Committee elects and supervises a Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson, Secretary, and Treasurer to implement/maintain:
agenda, planning and projects; record-keeping and archival functions; and financial actions and records. Terms
for these four positions are for five years, after which mandatory change occurs. Current incumbents in these four
positions are indicated in the overall committee listing below. Additionally, three standing functions are taken
care of by the persons indicated at the bottom of the page. In the ramp-up to the five-year reunions, temporary
committees are established to handle various key functions.

STANDING FUNCTIONS are those ongoing efforts that must be continued in between five-year reunions. These
pertain to the maintaining of good contact information, and to keeping in contact with Class of '60 alumni. The Committee
appoints persons to take care of standing functions as needed.

Meetings of the Reunion Committee
The Reunion Committee gets together several times a year - to discuss what needs discussing, to plan what
needs planning, to improve on what needs improving, and for social purposes. All Committee functions are
self-funded out of Committee members' pockets. General treasury funds are used ONLY for classwide events. Any
donations you make to the general cause of Wakefield '60 do not support the Reunion Committee get-togethers in
any way. We typically meet at a restaurant, or in the houses of Committee members.
We'll post pictures of Committee gatherings every now and then, just so you know we're working on a regular
basis to help keep things headed in the right direction. See the pictures below of December 2010's
social get-together (no business conducted).
