Two 2007 reunions in the works PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 05 February 2007

Common question is, "why is there two?".  Well, we in the West didn't know about the one in the East until recently.  At this point, we Westerner's are estimating the interest level of a S.D. reunion.  If you are interested in coming to S.D., please vote on a date (even if you don't care which) so that we have an idea of how many will come. 

 

Atlanta:  Headed up by Shirley James.  Planned for June 22-24, details coming.  Shirley can be contacted using "Contact Us" to the left.  Anyone is welcome to attend.

San Diego:  Headed up by Gerrit. Open to anyone who wants to come.  The Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown (The web site is www.marriott.com/sancd) has rooms available the weekend of July 6-8 or July 20-22.  It is the smaller hotel on the corner of 6th and Broadway, next door to House of Blues and two blocks from Horton Plaza.  Here it is on the map.

Rates are high during the summer, I can get a group rate of $159.00 per room, but hey - you're downtown and close to everything. The Marriott's banquet rooms run $35++ (mostly +++ !) per dinner per person, so it would be better get rooms at the Marriott and block a table over at Yardhouse or The Local, which are good little places nearby that won't cost an arm and leg.  For group rooms, I can get a courtesy block for either one of the weekends. The hotel will hold rooms till three weeks before arrival date and release them with no obligation.
 
My vote is for Saturday, 21 July as July 7th might interfere with people's plans and many people will be traveling.  Regardless of which weekend you choose, I'd like all the votes in by February 16th.

 It'll be easy access to everything and a lot of fun.  Check the Discussion Boards for details as they come.
