Reunion - April 1-3, 2011
With the success of this year's reunion such as it
was, the recent email poll revealed an overwhelming interest to have the
next reunion in Beeville as well. To that end we've set a tentative date
of April 1-3, 2011, Beeville, TX.
As we will need a minimum
number of attendees (sailors + wives/girlfriends) signed up (50) before
for the reunion can become reality, it's important for you to let me
know at your earliest convenience if you plan to attend. Email me at
mwebb@naschasefield.com and
let me know. Once we achieve a minimum number of "shown interest," we'll
start accepting registrations for the reunion. Again though, it will
only be after we receive a minimum number of registrations that the
reunion will become reality.
Reunion Itinerary
While specifics are still
in the making at this writing, in all probability, the itinerary will
follow closely the reunion held earlier this year. On Friday will be
arrival and check in at your accommodations. There will be a "Welcome
Back" party held from 1:00 -10:00pm, held at the hosting motel. On
Saturday morning there will be a tour of the base along with an optional
tour of the Sikorsky Helicopter repair facilities, followed by a
Cocktail Reception and dinner at around 4 pm. Let me know if you'd like
to have an old fashioned BBQ, like we did at the last reunion or, would
you rather have a sit down, served dinner.
Reunion Cost
The cost to attend the reunion held earlier this
year ran $84.00 per person which included a wide variety of snacks along
with all beverages, sodas, beer & wine at the Friday "Welcome Back"
party. It also included the bus tour of the base, a reception gathering,
which also included all beverages and dinner on Saturday. With the next
reunion being 2 years apart from the previous one, there's the
possibility there may be a nominal increase in the cost to attend the
2011 reunion. Once we're able to finalize the reunions activities we'll
be able to better pin down the exact cost. We'll keep those interested
appraised.
