Mini-reunions?  1958 practically wrote the book.  We say that with some confidence, based first on the mini held in Houston in February of this year and second on the recently completed and even more successful mini held in Philadelphia in May 2011.  But you can assess the level of 1958's mini expertise for yourself by looking at the newsletters covering these two gatherings. Click on the Houston and Philadelphia links just above. Then check out the newsletter photos and read the comments from the classmates who attended these minis. Those were people having a really good time!

And while we're reveling in our successes, we'd like to get your take on the mini question.  Where would you like to go?  Because you cannot look at those two newletters and not think to yourself, I'm going to the next one of those!

Minneapolis has been mentioned, as have Miami and Coral Gables.  The possibility of a London mini was raised on the '58 Sister List.  What appeals to you?  Does your own city boast attractions that you think might appeal to your classmates?  Afraid that you'll end up doing all the work?  Not true.  We've learned that minis are best when they're a product of teamwork, and several of us will be there to help you from start to finish.  Email propperson at alum wellesley.edu and share your thoughts!

Finally, don't forget that minis do come in all shapes and sizes, and not all require a plane or train ticket.
