LEKSAN/LEKSON REUNION 2009
NORTHEAST OHIO (CLEVELAND ++)
Here is the tentative plan for the reunion
NOTE: The reunion hotel does NOT allow people to bring in their own beverages and/or food even if we rent a party room (which we can certainly do by having each family contribute a bit extra)….but we’ll figure something out.
