Meet the Dinglers in Chattanooga for Reunion 2011

Scott Ladewig — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 12:24:30 +0000

Pardon me, boy. Is that the Chatttanooga Choo Choo?

Yes, in fact it IS the Chattanooga Choo Choo. And it will be pulling into the station with the Dingler Family Reunion onboard!

When Eufaula turned out to not be available for 2011, we decided to move it back to 2012, and find a new host city. We cast our gaze northwards (but not too far north) and landed just past the Georgia border in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

If you haven’t been to Chattanooga, it is in a scenic area, nestled on the banks of the Tennessee River. It is easily accessible, at the meeting point of three interstates, and filled to the brim with things to do and see. This won’t be the farthest north we’ve been (that would be Mountain View, Arkansas), but it will be our first reunion in Tennessee.

I’ll post details about the hotel arrangements and how you can book your room later today. I’ll also send out an email to everyone on the mailing list who has an email address on record. We’re only 113 days away, so time to start making plans!

Location for Dingler Reunion 2011 Announced

Tonight at the annual Dingler Family Reunion dinner meeting, the group agreed to hold next year’s reunion in Eufaula, Alabama, as suggested by Arthur and Brenda Dease. We will be working with them to make plans for next year as they welcome us to the area they call home.

As always, the location is tentative until we can firm up details, but as of now we look forward to seeing everyone July 15-17, 2011, in Eufaula.

Reunion 2010 in Mobile July 16-18

For 2010 we’re moving the reunion back to its traditional 3rd weekend in July, so mark your calendars for July 16-18. We appreciate everyone’s flexibility in changing things last year to accomodate some conflicting events.

And where will we be? Well, if you read the post title, you know where we’re going… Mobile, Alabama! This will be our second time in Mobile, but the first time in 19 years. I’ll post in the next day or so with more information about Mobile.

We’re still working on details for our hotel and dinner meeting lcoation and hope to be able to announce something soon.
