Current goings on
Please Note the Sidebar over on right side has a lot of Titles but most are empty as I set them up months ago for all of us to start adding to, as the current Ancient Mariner site hosted on my http://www.starsstripesshop.us/ domain name and placed on Goggle's server is slated by Goggle to be changed but for now I'm not sure how much or if anything will survive.
2010 Reunion planning for Las Vegas, NV end of September. Reunion Chairman is Rev. Bob Stover (CL 24).
Dear Rev. Bob:
As we approach the this years Reunion I would like to providea dissertation for the financial considerations thereof.
On my review of the funding arrangements of the 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2009 and my actual managing the 2007 and 2008 Reunions' funding.
I have used the information to set the concept for 2010 Reunion financial matters. To Wit:
The registration fee charged the attendees will in no way be expected cover what the overall expenses will be for all the tour events, social festivities, entertainment, meals and incidentals deemed necessary and as arranged by you the Reunion Chairman in your efforts toward a successful 2010 Reunion.
This of course means that the Alumni Group Treasury will be actually subsidizing a major portion of the overall expenses as necessary, just and prudent in conducting the only major annual function of the organization.
Most sincerely,
Bob Burke
The following 2010 Annual Reunion Registration Notice was sent out by U.S. Mail during the week of 19 July to 470 members on the Roster. So far four have been returned stating Forward Time EXP but the P.O. was kind enough to annotate them with the new address thus allowing us to resend them with another 44cent stamp. Also several deceased notices have come in.
Here though is what composed the 1st mailing of 416
