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.
Folks are starting to arrive here at the Wingate by Wyndham off of I-65. Kristin and I arrived last night after driving down from St. Louis with an overnight in Corinth MS. We’re hanging out in the hospitality suite at the hotel and welcoming people as they arrive. Attendance is in the mid-40s now and who knows, some more people may surprise us and get the number up around 50. Hopefully the nice folks at Wintzell’s Oyster House won’t mind the tardy RSVPs.
Everyone at the Wingate has been very helpful in getting things setup. The hospitality suite (aka their meeting room) is ready for everyone whether they are looking to chat, do crafts (you know who you are!), look at pictures, and who knows what else.
If you aren’t able to make the reunion, we’re going to have a computer setup with Skype so that you can call in and say hello to some folks and be here virtually. If you’re interesed in calling, send an email to info@dingler-family.org and we can let you know our contact information.
