* * * Sennet's 2022 Reunion is Cancelled * * *

Putting together an all hands reunion requires financial contracts with with area businesses like hotels and other venues to reserve spaces.   Mike and Nancy Hory (64-66) did an excellent job of planning for the Mobile reunion, but unfortunately, we have had no registrations or hotel reservations.   We must cancel our Mobile contracts now to avoid financial penalties.

Perhaps the lack of turnout is due to the ongoing Covid problem, or maybe it's our age and dwindling numbers.   Either way, Sennet's 2022 Reunion is cancelled, and the future is uncertain.

We will keep the web site up and continue to send out newsletters.
