Class of 1990 30th Reunion - Program & Schedule - 1990

All classes are invited to a festive wine and cheese reception on Cross Campus. Bring your friends and enjoy a wide sampling of labels from a variety of small vineyards.

Time for mingling and casual conversations with classmates and guests.   Re-connect with folks you know and get to meet some you don’t. Dress code is "Come as you Are!"

One of the most wonderful ways to connect with your classmates during reunion is to intentionally create something together, and then share the results with your friends and family. So we’ve created a special event for our 30th called “Making Music Together,” which is being planned & produced by Melissa (Griforieff) Koomey (Whim ’90 Business Manager) and Kevin Mayes (Whiff ’90 Pitchpipe). The main event will be a live performance of incredible music of various styles by members of the class of ’90 on Friday night. But the process of creating & rehearsing while at the reunion will be just as amazing!
There are two ways to participate:

1 - Propose a musical piece you would like to perform with at least ONE other member of our class. We’re hoping that you’ll take some time to create something specifically for the reunion. Originals, mashups, new interpretations, unique arrangements… something SPECIAL to you and your collaborators.
2 - Sign up to be part of the Reunion Chorus, which will perform 2-3 songs specifically arranged for the event. There will be NO auditions for this! It’s open to anyone. But there will be a mandatory 90-minute rehearsal on Friday during the day. Sheet music and recordings of all parts will be provided well in advance of the reunion weekend so that you can prepare on your own.

Interested? Email us at yaleclassof90music@gmail.com if you have something you’d like to perform, and stay tuned for more details on how to sign up for the Reunion Chorus.

The bar will remain open until 1 am and for background music, we’ll have a curated playlist from across the past few decades.

Reunion Headquarters opens in Branford College.

Start your Saturday morning (weather permitting) with some gentle stretching and breathing exercises, and get your body feeling "yoga good" for a busy day of reunion activities! This is a mixed-level class featuring modifications for all levels of ability, so whether you have been practicing for years or have never touched a yoga mat, everyone can have an enjoyable experience in this class. Please wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. No previous yoga experience necessary; children and all ages welcome.

Includes baked goods, whole fruit, cereals, yogurt, oatmeal, coffee, tea, milk, and juices

This interfaith service, led by the Rev. Christopher H. Martin TC and Rabbi Ben Lanckton ES, and perhaps other spiritual leaders, will offer a time of silence, music, prayer and reflection in Dwight Chapel. Together we will name and celebrate the lives of classmates who have died. The brief service will be followed by a coffee reception to continue conversation and remembrances.
