Anniversary Party Post Mortem

This page is for everyone to throw in their comments on what went wrong or right at the 20th Anniversary Party.

This is not the thank-you page; this is a skeweringly analytical interrogation of our souls, on behalf of the 25th Anniversary Party Committee -- or whoever wants to throw another one of these things. Tell them what is important for them to know!

("It was perfect" is a fine thing to say, but details are keen too.)

Overall

On the Anniversary Party page, Jay says "The Saturday lunch is the big event. If you can only attend one, please come to the lunch." IMHO, this turned out not to be the case. Friday night was the big event for me. (Nearly) everybody was there, and I got to see everybody; it was big and fluid and open. Saturday was a day of getting together in small groups for longer periods of time. (--zarf)

(To be clear: it was very good that the big open event was first and the lunch was second. I would just bill Friday as the shindig and Saturday as the followup.)

Friday Pizza Event

Friday officer reports went on a little long -- as I said, I was more in the mood to circulate chaotically. But obviously if they had been shunted to Saturday, then Saturday would have gone on ``way`` too long. Maybe would have been better if just the presidents had given individual reports, and the other officer cadres had had collective goofiness to present. (--zarf)
