Puyallup High School Class of 1990

An emergy has come up. We have no desserts! If there's anything we've learned in over 50 years is you got to have desserts if this is going to be a party!
Anyone who enjoys baking/creating desserts could be a blessing to your homeys.
Nothing store bought because we're not that desperate.

Don't make us miss you! Come home!

The 1/3rd Century reunion is on! August 20th, 2023 from 3pm-7pm at Cockrell Cider in Puyallup Washington!

More details will be posted soon in the PHS Class of 1990 Facebook group hosted by this page, but mark your calendars!

It is with deep sorrow that we share the news of the passing of our classmate and friend, Adam Palmer.

Hey everyone--It's me Tim again. So, it's pretty clear that we should wait until the summer and see how things are going before continuing to plan things. After all, my iTunes Store is showing that REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It" is the 33rd most downloaded song right now.

However, I pledge that at 7:30pm PDT on June 11th, 2020, I'll stop whatever I'm doing for a bit and reflect on my life, and my best wishes for each of yours over the course of these 30 years since we last sat together in these seats. Please join me in thought and good will, wherever you may find yourself to be at that time.

May you and yours continue to be happy, and well.

Hey there everybody--It's me Tim. Firstly, thank you to those who participated in the vote on reunion locations. It is greatly appreciated.

As a group, the planning committee is concerned that the spread of COVID-19 and resulting suppression strategies may reduce the number of people who can or will attend a reunion this summer, thereby making it difficult to place a deposit on a location and hold a successful reunion. So, we are wondering what you all think might be best.

Suggestions within the committee include:
--holding the reunion at an outside park (such as Clark's Creek) so that people can disperse into smaller groups,
--holding the reunion later in the year (such as during the late summer, a fall holiday weekend, or on alumni day), or
--some combination thereof.

What do you think? Please let us know by commenting on this post or messaging this page.

For your reference, I've attached two charts from the Imperial College London study apparently underlying recent changes in US/UK approaches to suppression of the coronavirus. Both display the projected number of ICU beds occupied per 100,000 people. The first chart assumes that suppression measures will be in place through mid-September, 2020, and shows that cases will likely surge in the fall once suppression is concluded. The second chart displays the spread given an alternating suppression strategy lasting through the fall of 2021. These are the underlying estimates being used to support the 6-8 week projections until peak infection, and the potential for an 18-month suppression strategy.

Please take care of yourselves and each other.

One day left to vote on where to hold the reunion! Please vote, and tell your friends to do so as well.

Please vote to determine where to hold the Class of 1990 reunion!

Below are 13 locations listed in alphabetical order, with cost estimates and a link to the website for that location. Please look at them and Like your top three preferences. Then, post the Comment, "1st" on the location that is your first choice.

We'll rank-order the selections based on popularity, then make arrangements to collect the deposit and reserve the most popular location. If that location becomes unavailable before we can put down the deposit, we'll move to the next most popular location.

Please also share this post to your page, so that PHS alumni in your Friend networks are alerted to the vote. The vote will conclude at the end of the day on March 15th (we have to move somewhat quickly to beat the summer wedding reservations).

OK, have fun voting!

Ok, so I'm about to make 14 posts to this page. The reunion planning committee thought it best to let you all vote on the options we came up with so far, or suggest others. If you're on Facebook and see these being posted, please wait to like or comment on them until I explain the voting procedure in the last post (which should then be at the top of the list).

Just FYI, we'll leave the survey about reunion planning open for responses until January 18th. So, if you know anyone who's not on Facebook very often, please contact them and encourage them to check this page and participate in the survey before that time.

Early results are trending toward an evening in August at a private location (go figure, given all the beer and wine coolers in the high school photos included in the 10th year reunion video... don't let your kids watch that if you're trying to maintain that you were an innocent teenager🙂).

Hi everyone,

We've created a survey to help with reunion planning. Please follow the link below to complete the survey, and share it or this post with other PHS Class of 1990 graduates.

30th year reunion planning This survey will help us gather information helpful to planning the 30th year reunion for the Puyallup High School Class of 1990. Your participation is greatly appreciated!

Hey everybody, it's Tim Lower. Some of us have been talking about the 30th year reunion. Would you like to join the conversation? If so, message either this page or me. We're hoping to poll people on places and dates for the reunion toward the end of this month or beginning of next. So, please tell friends from high school to follow this page in order to participate in those polls.

Actually, how about posting pictures of yourself recreating a photo from the yearbook (or your personal collection) and calling others from the original photo to join you? It could be fun, and maybe then that will encourage Pati Pugh Miller, Ruthie Schleigh-Nicholson, and Don C. Barenz to get back on the PHS sign with me.

Be well!
