Class of '72 40th-year Reunion October 19-20, 2012 Friday, October 19, 2012 - Icebreaker at PJ Skidoos Restaurant and Bar, 9808 Fairfax
Boulevard, Fairfax, VA 22030. Phone (703)591-4515.
Website: (FYI, Fairfax Boulevard is Rt. 50, which is Arlington
Boulevard up to Fairfax Circle inside the beltway; then it is Fairfax
Boulevard from about Fairfax Circle to about Fair Oaks Mall; then it is Lee
Jackson Highway. It is ALL the same road - Rt. 50). We have a happy hour "reservation" from 4 to 8 p.m. in the main bar/dance floor
area - which means they will bring in enough wait staff to
serve everyone and provide separate checks (for just drinks, more
appetizers, dinner, whatever). The reunion committee will provide some starter
appetizers, then you are on your own. DJ starts at 10 and bar closes at 2
a.m. - so people can stay as little or as late as they want. Saturday, October 20, 2012 - Main event at PrimeTime Sports Bar and Grill, 11250
James Swart Circle, Fairfax, VA 22030. Phone (703)352-0260.
