23 April 2003 - Save the Date!
 Greetings PSE Alumni!

It was great connecting with you this past summer. As promised we have the following attachments for you:

1) The PSE Survey Results...Save the dates -- October 11 and July 19

The first choice for "what kind of event" was "Party at someone's house, adults only". Thus, we'd like to reserve October 11, 2003 for our next party, so save the date! We're still looking for a house for the party, so if you live in the Pomona Valley or Los Angeles area, please respond and the committee will look into it.

A family picnic was the second choice on our survey for "what kind of event", so we're planning a Family Beach Party for July 19, 2003. Details and location to follow (Mark DeBellis and Jeff Werderman, planning committee)

2) PSE Roster (Updated)

If you have corrections or additions to the attached roster, please reply and we will make the changes for the next edition. Please make an attempt to contact friends on the roster that we have not heard from - it will be fun to see everyone again!

Planning committees are in the works, so stay tuned.

Ron DeRuyter, Sharon Pattison-Fradella and Marie Porter Royce

See you soon!
