Newsletters

An HTML version of the hard copy that began being mailed in July 2007. The text is about the same but the web site version is in a different format and may contain a few more pictures. You might notice an extra issue in Volume 2. We ran a list of all members found so far in Volume 2-Issue 3 and then a list Andy Brower had of the company in 1969 in Volume2-Issue 4.


REUNIONS

2011 REUNION

The Sixth Annual Charlie Company Reunion will return to the Hilton Cincinnati Airport in Florence, KY on June 10 and 11, 2011. A block of rooms have been reserved at a special room rate of $85 and will be available until May 31, 2011. As in the past, this rate will be good three days before and three days after the event. Obviously, all plans are not complete at this time but I'm sure a round of golf will be on the agenda and the tea room brunch is already scheduled for Saturday, June 11 at noon. Mark your calendars and begin making plans now to attend.

We were asked at this year's reunion to see about a riverboat cruise for our group and, after some feedback and discussion, have decided to arrange a 12-2 p.m. cruise with BB Riverboats on Friday, June 10, 2011. You will have the option of "Cruise Only" or "Cruise & Lunch". If we have at least 15 to sign up for each group, the rates will drop (prices include tax and food service charge but not tip).

OPTIONS
Individual Rate
Group Rate
Cruise Only
$16.15
$15.05
Cruise & Lunch
$34.57
$27.57

We chose Friday since we have golf and the tea room brunch on Saturday and thought the lunch time cruise would allow us to keep about the same Friday schedule as in the past. Also, the group rate for the dinner cruise is $43.15 per person and we didn't know if many would want to participate at that price.

BB Riverboats recommended we make reservations at the first of next year but probably no later than a month ahead to be sure we can "cruise". We haven't decided on a deadline yet because 1/3 of the cost will be required at that time. The remainder will be due one week before. We have time to decide these items.

Let us hear from you if you are planning on attending the reunion. We need to find out how many of you attending will want to participate in the riverboat cruise and which option you prefer. We will allow you to change options at a later date if you'd like. For instance, my wife and I would probably sign up for the Cruise & Lunch but would change to Cruise Only if we didn't get the Group Rate. You may use this link to send a your responses by completing a short questionnaire.

Online registration. Yes, it is already ready! It includes a link to the Hilton web site if you want to see the hotel itself. It includes the Hilton address, phone number and directions for booking a room online. The page will open in another window. Close it when you finish and you will be back here.
