Meg will NOT be able to make as the PNB school performance is the same Saturday night & she had been on the faculty there since we moved to Seattle 9 years ago. But I will be bringing my 16 year old daughter, Nicole. My son, Jason (19), is finishing his first year of college. I retired from ballet in 1987 and have been working my way up the Hi Tech corporate ladder since. I am now with my second pre-IPO company and in a good position to help it succeed.

Travel Business Website: www.besttravelcash.com Marital Status: Married No. of Children: 3 From Lauren: Thank you and bravo to all involved in this marvelous reunion! I'm really looking forward to catching up with everyone. What an incredible tribute it will be! I am currently married, have three children, ages 12, 14, and 16, and teach ballet to figure skaters. I've recently started a travel business from my home, so when I'm not teaching or running around with my kids, I'm devoting time to my new business. My kids and I also have a veritable zoo that we care for: 2 dogs, 1 rabbit, and 7 gerbils. My sons are involved in their respective tennis teams and my daughter is a figure skater and likes to dance and draw. Again, I am so much looking forward to this blast from the past! See you soon! ~Lauren
