"SAVE THE DATE | AUGUST 1, 2026 You know you've ALWAYS WANTED TO COME BACK to Governors Island! In 1996 they turned out the last lights and locked the door on this big beautiful Island, which we ALL, at one point or another, have called home. We came from everywhere and lived everywhere but never somewhere like Governors Island. 30-Year Reunion
2026 marks 30 years since the lights went out and the doors were locked on our beloved Governors Island, NY. It wasn't great to watch fate of this fantastic place fall into uncertainty. Watching the evolution of the Island since it's closing has caused a raft of emotions as we feel possessive of this place. The razing of one enite side of the island means some who return do not get to see the home they lived in while on GI which does not seem fair at all. But as we have returned over these years since the island has reopened we can bear witness to the spirit of the island that lives on in her ability to change. Like us.
We have the date but we're not so sure that just one day on our beloved Island will do! Structured events will be on August 1, 2026 but reconnections will be happening all weekend long, that's for sure! Reach out to your forever friends who lived on the island when you did. Start Making your Plans NOW!! Interested in working on a committee and help make this event happen?
Please let us know by taking this short survey. https://survey.app.do/i-would-like-to-be-on-a-30th-reunion-committee
Join us to CELEBRATE the lives we lived on this magnificent, ever-changing rock that we call home.
Join us Saturday, AUGUST 1 2026"
