I am pleased to report that "reunion 2007 " has a committee in place and the
work is progressing at top speed.
Committee members are: David Cooper, Murray Decker, David Winterburn, Bob McGonigal, Paul
Bradford, George Taylor, Brian Hook, Norm Wood, chaired by Frank Gabriel.
I cannot emphasis enough the contributions of our wives who attend meetings and lend
support when we are at home.
The venue will be the Holiday Inn Select 1855 Huron Church Rd. Windsor On.
Check out the website at
www.holiday-inn-windsor.com
The management of the hotel will reserve three or four floors for us depending on the
number of reservations, that way we can remain relatively close to one another all
week-end.
Regretfully the hotel cannot accept reservations until July 2006 but that shouldn't
prevent anyone from sending in your registration forms early.
The catering has been booked and a vegetarian meal will be made available.
The hotel restaurant is preparing a special rate breakfast for all " Dragoons
".
One of the best local bands has been hired. They play to packed houses in all the local
Legions and do numerous charity events thru-out the City and the County of Essex.
If your toes don't tap to this music Dr.Bradford will be available to check your
pulse.
No special side trips are planned for now as there will be a parade on Saturday from 1300
to 1500.
As the theme of the reunion is the 'Boer War' Terry Cottrell who is very
knowledgeable on the subject will be the guest speaker.
If you play a musical instrument and would like to entertain us Friday at the Meet and
Greet please bring them along and the party will start Friday.
As in past years dress will be:
Friday evening ---------------------casual, shirt and slacks
Saturday afternoon---------------- Blues and Greys
Saturday evening ------------------ Tie and jacket or
Blues and Greys
Please register early and encourage all your friends to do the same. There are many of us
out there that have missed great reunions in the past please don't miss this one as it
looks like this one will be just as good and we are striving to make it better.
For those that are watching the Super Bowl hype this past week you know that Windsor is
now International known.
So please come visit us here in " Sin City ".
If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate
to call me or a-mail me and I will get you the answers you are looking for.
