2018 Reunion
Well we had a great planning crew when we went to New Orleans. I want to thank Lance and Jan Nemenic, Fred and Marty Lowman, Earl Floyd, and my lovely wife Karen. We have the hotel picked out for the 2018 Reunion.
2018 Reunion will be held September 19 – 23. In New Orleans, LA
Hotel will be
Hilton Garden Inn New Orleans Convention Center
1001 South Peters Street
New Orleans, LA
Room rate will be $128.16 per night (this includes all taxes and fees) and includes Refrigerator and Microwave. This rate is good three days before and three days after the reunion. Reservations can be made after September 24, 2017. There is a cost for parking your car in New Orleans. We are working on a deal for at least $20 per day, but we will not have this finalized until sometime in the future, in an independent garage. The hotel charge is almost $40 per day.
If you fly into New Orleans and need transportation to the hotel, we are working with a company for that and will provide more information at a later date
The hotel has a restaurant on site that offers a breakfast buffet for $12.95 per person (6:30am – 10am). No lunch is served on the weekends. Dinner is available starting at 4:00pm.
Public transportation is available 2-3 blocks from the hotel. Hop On and Hop Off bus and trolley.
