UPDATE! Can’t afford the ticket price? There may be assistance available to you. We’ve also extended Early Bird ticket pricing for another 30 days! See below!

Who comprises the Reunion Committee?
In no particular order, we are: Audrey Kingsley, Daniel Ifcher, Bryant Fields, Marianne Merritt Talbot, Lynda Roca, Robert Roszkowski, Kari Samuels, Miguel Chavez, Jamie Markovitz Hoffman, Ellen Hauser, and Jhanna Skutelsky Even.

What does the ticket price cover?
The price covers the actual restaurant fee as well as any incidentals and extras. We will announce those extras, as the event gets closer. Just to be clear, the reunion committee is volunteer-run. No one in the group is paid for any services.

What is the price of a ticket after June 15th?
From June 16th to September 15th, the price goes up to $155.  From September 16th to the day of the event or until we reach room capacity, the ticket will cost $175.UPDATE: This has now changed – the $125 price stays in effect until July 15, another 30 days, in order to help our classmates that need more time.

Pricing changed! Early bird pricing really spurred sales and we are very appreciative of the response! Due to this, we’ve been able to renegotiate w/ the venue and now pricing is as follows: Tickets are $135 paid in advance, and $150 at the door.

What is the room capacity?  Is there really a cap on the number of people that can attend the reunion party?
Yes, the room capacity at Harbour Lights Restaurant is about 400 people.  So we will accept payment either until the day of the party or until we reach the room capacity, whichever comes first.

I can’t wait for this party!  But I have dietary restrictions.  What can I do?
Not to worry, the restaurant can accommodate special food requests.  We’ll have more details as we get closer to the event

Why does the ticket price increase after June 15th?
We’ll be honest. We are making the initial price attractive so that we can meet the restaurant minimum-person request.  We need people to buy tickets before we sign the contract with the restaurant, otherwise we won’t be able to secure the restaurant for the event. So to give an incentive to people to buy early and to ease our stress of the payment guarantee, the lowest price of $125 is offered until our deadline for booking the restaurant of June 15th. But we understand that some people cannot buy tickets so early because of their schedules, so we are offering a second price break until September 15th, which is a little more than five weeks before the reunion. UPDATE: We’ve extended the early-bird pricing, and are working on our contractual obligations. We’ll do what we can to help you get the best deal possible for the longest time possible.

As promised, we have worked out the best possible deal for all attendees. Due to fantastic early bird ticket sales, we have been able to bring the price down to $135 for advanced tickets, and $150 at the door.

How can I pay for my ticket(s)?
Just like the last reunion, there will be three means of paying. You can mail in a check/money order to our address, or you can pay with credit card or paypal through our paypal account. The last is to pay cash at the door.  To learn more about payment options, please click here.

I can’t make it on October 22, is there a way that I can still participate?
Yes!  We will try to have live feeds via Twitter, Facebook, and our class reunion website. There will also be events the day before (school tour!) and the day after. We will post more information, as we get closer to the date.

I’m thrilled about this event and I want to help out. What can I do?
We are excited that you are excited!  Please keep spreading the word. As we determine what kind of assistance or donations we may need as the event gets closer, we will post it through our various channels for all to read and hear.

I’m starting to plan early and get my party clothes ready for the big event.  What is the dress code?
Break out your feather boa, and let’s get this party started right.  Just kidding.  Please come meet up your old friends in festive attire.  Ladies, we know you have a dress in the back of your closet, just itching to get out.  Men, no need for tuxedos, unless you want to get another use out of your wedding tux.

Why is our reunion such a grand event?
Since this is our silver, 25th anniversary as alumni of Bronx Science, we wanted to commemorate it with a memorable evening.  Please remember that $125 (if you buy early) covers the price of five hours of premium open bar, food and rental of the location as well as other expenses.

Does that mean no children?
This is an adults-only event. Children are not encouraged to attend.

Are tickets refundable?
Sorry, tickets are NOT refundable.

Will all our reunion parties be like this?
That depends on what everyone wants for the 30th, 35th, 40th, and 45th reunion parties.  For our gold, 50th anniversary, it would be great to celebrate with another memorable party.

I cannot afford the ticket price. What can I do?
One of our classmates, Richard Garbarini, has gone above and beyond the call of duty and has offered to setup an Angel Fund. If you need assistance, please email us and we’ll put you in touch with him.
