Dear Friends,
We’re thrilled at the many enthusiastic responses to our June email! We guarantee June 1–4, 2027 will be a joyous, unforgettable celebration of kindred souls. Generous classmate donors have made it possible for everyone to be welcome to an affordable Get Back 5.0.
But this message is about one important thing: please consider booking a hotel NOW.
At the moment, Cambridge-area hotels have many rooms available — but in Reunion week fills up super-fast, and other local events will put a strain on vacancies. We suggest that you book even if you are on the fence. You can always cancel the reservation.
● Reserved blocks of rooms can be found at this link. You may, of course, reserve at other hotels, but the ones closest to campus fill first. A number of dorm rooms will be available but cannot be or reserved yet. (Tip: book your hotel now, and cancel it if you like the dorm option.)
● For alums who want to stay overnight after our big June 3 gala at the Marriott Copley Plaza, the hotel has reserved discounted rooms for that night only at this link. The website can be wonky, so we strongly urge you to call the hotel at (617) 937-5610.
Reimbursement. Happily, our donors will provide a participation stipend, to be disbursed shortly after the reunion, to each classmate attendee and one guest:
● HAA Early Bird Program Fees — up to $600 per attendee and guest each for the full reunion package.
● Travel and expenses — a similar amount, or more, depending on how far the classmate attendee has travelled to reunion.
As always, feel free to contact either of us with any questions, at lerangis@gmail.com or joanssoble.ed@gmail.com. And as always, our website will be a great source for all things reunion!
Enjoy the rest of August, and we’ll send more details soon — including news of our Mystery Honorary Co-Chair! In the meantime, go forth and book!
Cheers,
Joan Soble and Peter Lerangis
