Save the Dates: November 12-15, 2020
COVID-19 puts planning details in flux
The adage "What a difference a day makes” certainly is alive and well, particularly if you look at the last two weeks. Two weeks ago, we were in the final stages of reunion planning with selected dates, a tentative schedule and a designated hotel. Now, due to the uncertainty COVID-19 has presented, parts of the plan have been thrown into a bit of confusion.
First and foremost, our dates are firm. Assuming we have a 2020 reunion, the dates will be November 12 – 15, with arrival on Thursday and departure on Sunday. Please consider this your “hold these dates” message. We worked to keep costs lower by scheduling after the 2020 election and after Veterans Day to avoid conflict with your local events.
As to the schedule and hotel negotiations, here’s what’s going on:
We are thus in limbo for the next several weeks, possibly months. We are continuing to work toward a November 12-15 reunion. We hope to provide far more encouraging news in the near future, so please stay tuned for details as we are able to provide them. Since our plans are directly correlated to our national emergency, let us hope and pray this situation rapidly improves.
SPEARHEAD!
