Fletcher All Class Reunion

Frequently Asked Questions

1. When will tickets be available for distribution?

Answer: Tickets are now available at the Beaches Museum and through the Museum’s PayPal Account on the website www.bm-hc.com. PayPal tickets purchases through April 24 will be mailed to you. Online tickets purchased after April 24^th can be picked up at the Museum during normal business hours through May 7. On the day of the event tickets will be available at the Will Call table.

2. Can I book a seating area for my class?

Answer: YES. Some classes holding their class reunion on the same weekend as the Fletcher All-Class Reunion may request seating for their class. Reserved seating for formal class reunion groups will be considered on a first come, first served basis. Contact the Museum Director to discuss. For other classes rendezvous areas are being planned in ten year increments. The extent of this arrangement will be based on the per year response received . (Be sure to provide you graduation year when ordering tickets).

3. Can I get a discount rate if I buy ten tickets, or want a ticket to attend but not pay for a meal?

Answer: No. The Fletcher Reunion is a fund raising event for the Beaches Area Historical Society. There are only two ticket prices; one for members and one for non members. Members are not allowed to purchase member priced tickets for non-members. A name must be associated with every ticket. The recipients name will be written on the back of the ticket. The membership roster will be checked at time of purchase.

4. Can kids go to the reunion?

Answer: We strongly advise against bringing children and youth under the age of 21. People under 21 will be asked to provide identification and must wear a wrist band which identifies them as a minor for the duration of the event. NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES WILL BE SOLD TO MINORS. ANY PERSON WEARING A WRISTBAND FOR MINORS WHO IS SEEN DRINKING ON THE GROUNDS WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE EVENT.

5. How much money should I bring? How will drinks tickets be sold?

Answer: It depends upon how many drinks you plan to consume. There are different prices for each type of drink. Guests will be able to buy tokens in $1.00 increments that will be used to purchase drinks at each of the bars at the reunion. Please Note: Leftover drinks tickets from last year’s reunion will not be accepted at the 2010 reunion.

6. Will you mail my ticket if I purchase through PayPal?

Answer: YES, we will. This is one of the many advantages of paying using PayPal through the Museum’s web site at www.bm-hc.com.

Those purchasing tickets through PayPal must give their name, credit card information, the year they graduated and their membership status. Tickets purchased at the Museum office will also require this information as well as an email address. Ticket purchasers are not required to provide any information other than their name, membership status and year of graduation. Non-Fletcher graduates need only provide their name and member status.

Tickets may be purchased at the Beaches Museum during regular office hours (Tues-Sat. 10am-4: 30 pm.) They may also be ordered from the Museum over the phone (242-5657). PayPal orders on the website www.bm-hc.com will be mailed. Online purchase after April 24 will be available for pickup at the Museum office or at the Will Call table on the evening of the event.

7. What is the cutoff date for buying tickets in advance?

Answer: Ticket sales at the museum will end when the Museum closes on May 7.

8. Can I purchase a ticket at the door?

Answer: Absolutely. Tickets can be purchased at the door immediately before and after the event starts as long as tickets last. The event will be open to patrons at 6:30 pm. Tickets will be sold until 10:00 pm (if there are any tickets left to purchase.) However, we encourage you to purchase them in advance. This should shorten the time necessary to gain admission to the reunion by avoiding the ticket purchase line. Please note, discounted tickets will not be offered later in the evening regardless of the availability of food.

9. Can I bring in my own drinks?

Answer: No. Only drinks sold at a bar currently being proposed for the check-in area, or inside the grounds, may be consumed at this event.

10. I’ve signed up to volunteer; do I have to pay to attend?

Answer: YES. This is a fundraiser for the BM&HS, and while we VERY much appreciate your additional gift of time, your support of the organization through ticket a purchase is most appreciated and will ensure the success of the event. Please contact your committee chairperson if you wish to discuss this issue further. Special circumstances will be considered based on a criteria previously adopted by the event committee. If you are an employee of an event sponsor and working the event, your ticket may be provided free of charge. These should be discussed with your subcommittee chair or the co-chair of the Volunteer Subcommittee.

11. As a Member of the Society, how many tickets can I purchase at one time?

Answer: As a member you may purchase two (2) tickets under your name. All additional tickets you plan to purchase at that time must include the names of the individuals they are being purchased for. Those purchased for active Society members will be sold at the member price - $30.00. All others may be purchased at the non-member price of $40.00.
