FAQs - TICKET SPECIAL!

Questions about the ticket buying process? You're in the right place!

Let us know if your questions aren't answered! You're probably not the only one so we'd love to know what we're missing!

So, like, I have to buy a ticket?

Yes.

How much?

$50 per person.

What if I don't buy a ticket in advance? Can I just show up and pay at the door?

NO. We hate to be firm about it but we have to give a final headcount to the restaurant before the reunion and we can't afford to cover any unpaid no-shows.

But why is April 20th the deadline for buying my ticket? That's kinda early, isn't it?

Yes, it is, but we had to put down a deposit and if we don't cancel by a certain date, we lose our deposit...which is code for "Andrea, Cassie, Elizabeth and Sarah have to eat it." That still gives you nearly two months to locate your check book though, so hop to it!

Can I bring my husband/wife/partner/hot date?

Please do! The more the merrier! It's still $50 per person though.

Where do I send my money?

Make the check out to either Sarah Woodside or Elizabeth Holt (or both, if it makes you feel better) and mail it to:

LHS Reunion
1001 Villa Maria Court
San Jose, CA 95125

I don't know how I feel about sending you hoodlums money. How do I know this is legit?

No bones about it, we're asking you to trust us.

Why do I have to make the check out to Sarah or Elizabeth? Why not Cassie? Why not Andrea? Why not something more official sounding?

Sarah and Elizabeth are the two names on the bank account. We tried getting a business bank account so we could have the checks made out to the reunion itself, but that involved forming an LLC or something and blah blah blah, we aren't funded for that so we're going the cheap route.

Can I pay via Paypal?

No, sorry. There are transaction limits on free accounts and fees associated with upgraded accounts and it's just not a good option for us. If you know some way around this, let us know!

Seriously? You want me to go find my checkbook and send you money the old school way? For reals?

Yes. We know from personal experience how HARD it is to find exotic things like ENVELOPES and, *gasp*, STAMPS, but we're asking you to pretty please with sugar on top, make the effort.

YES! We need to cover the fees though so if PayPal is your poison, just send us $52 per person! Our account is linked to our lincolnlions1994@gmail.com e-mail address, so send, send away!!

What happens if the reunion gets cancelled?

The only way the reunion will be cancelled is if we don't sell enough tickets to meet our contractual obligations with the restaurant. We know this makes it kinda sticky for people who need to make travel arrangements but we'll let you know AS SOON as we meet our minimum...we need everyone to buy their tickets by April 20th anyway, so you'll still have two months to book your flights and/or your parents' guest rooms.

Go ahead! Knock our socks off! Send us your money TODAY! We dare you!

BUT, if the reunion DOES get cancelled, then we'll send your money back ASAP. We pinkie swear.

How many tickets do you need to sell?

We're hesitant to blab that because we don't want anyone to make any assumptions about whether or not they need to send in their money NOW NOW NOW or, you know, whenever they get around to it. Like, we don't want our reunion to get Chris Daughtry on American Idol Syndrome -- where everybody thinks everybody else is going to do it so they don't have to.

So anyway, it's a TOTALLY do-able number. Now send us your money. Please.

What do I get for my $50?

You'll get appetizers and one drink ticket at The Loft Bar & Bistro in downtown San Jose. We'll have a private room from 7-10PM but after that, the restaurant turns into a lounge with a DJ and a dance floor. You are welcome to stay and shake your groove thang or see if an after party spontaneously develops.

So there's no dinner?

In the interest of keeping the cost down so as many people as possible would come, no, we are not able to include dinner in the ticket price. The Loft is a restaurant though so if you wanted to make your own dinner reservations for the pre-reunion period, I'm sure that would be fine, but you'd be on your own for that.

I didn't graduate in 1994, but I'm a Lincoln teacher and/or a friend of the class of 1994. Can I come?

Sure thing! We know that plenty of teachers and people in higher or lower classes were tight with people in our class and we're more than happy to have them join is. All the regular ticket buying guidelines still apply.

And now a question for YOU:
