Dear Malvern Grads of '08,
Ten years ago something astounding happened.
No, it wasn't Britney's comeback. Although to be fair, that was quite spectacular.
No, it wasn't the Wall Street Crash of '08. Although to be fair, that was quite a time.
And no, it was not the series finale of the OC. Although to be fair… actually, no, that was about time.
10 years ago was our graduating year from Malvern CI. So… let’s do a reunion!
Calvin and I haven't thrown a party together in years, so we thought we might as well throw one last bash for old time's sake. There will be games. There will be #mems. Some of us will be wifed up, others will be aggressively single, and a decent chunk will be crotchety old senior citizens. And we’ll all be together again for the first time since Prom.

------------------------------DETAILS:---------------------------------
--TICKET PRICE--
Early Bird (March 25th - April 19th): $65
Late Registration (April 20th - May 12th): $75
This covers open bar, and any proceeds left will be donated to charity.
--CHARITY--
All proceeds being donated to two charities: Get REAL, which I help run, and the charity that Calvin works with, which sends underprivileged kids to camps across Ontario. For more information about either, feel free to contact Chris.
--VENUE--
The Jam Factory is a great space and it has a 300 person capacity. This means that priority will be given to Grads (people who were in Grade 12, attending Malvern, in 2007-2008). Grads can bring 1 guest, but space is limited, and cannot be guaranteed (so if that's you, buy asap).
--GUESTLIST--
If you do buy multiple tickets, please write in who you bought for (first and last names) so we can add them to the guest list.
--TRIBUTE--
There will be a Zach Boucher tribute, which Matt Forest & Jesse Morin are heading up. To get involved or contribute, please contact Jesse and Matt.
--RAFFLE--
To contribute something to the raffle (such as a prize or a service), please contact Chris.
--AWARDS & SONG REQUESTS--

--SLIDESHOW--
It wouldn't be a reunion without embarrassing photos! Please send to Calvin --> [email protected]
--DRESS CODE--
"Look at me now, b*tches" or "Still giving zero f***s" -- either works, it's all good. You do you.
--GOOD VIBES ONLY--
This should be an event everyone feels comfortable and excited to bring their guests, so no high school bullshit (we all know what that is).
--PEOPLE NOT ON FACEBOOK--
Please make them and us aware! There is zero pressure for anyone to attend, but we at least want to give everyone a chance to do so.
--SEE YOU ON THE 12TH--
On a personal note, we’re looking forward to seeing everybody. People’s lives have taken different twists and turns, but it is remarkable how many groups of friends from our year have stayed close or in touch to this day. If one or two people can reconnect, or leave things on a more positive note, or reminisce and laugh about a funny memory, then this event will have been a success.
-Chris & Calvin
