by ·Comments Off on 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.

Since I couldn’t make it to the Dingler Reunion this year, I’m connected to the meeting room at the hotel using Skype. Not the same as being there, but is definitely the next best thing.

I wasn’t able to make it to the reunion this year due to an illness in the family, but Kristin is there, and she sends us this photo from tonight’s dinner at the Cracker Barrel in LaGrange. Click on the picture for a full-size view.

Kristin reports that attendance is at 52 and counting!

I know these are very late, but I promise to get pictures for this year’s reunion up sooner than the next reunion.

Anyway, take a look at photos from our 2008 reunion in Jackson, Mississippi.

The Best Western Lafayette Garden Inn in LaGrange, Georgia, will be our host hotel for the reunion this year. We have a block of 30 King and Double rooms reserved for the reunion. Rates inclusive of taxes are $85.11 and $73.91 respectively. Rooms include complimentary hot breakfast at the IHOP restaurant at the hotel.

All rooms are non-smoking and have a microwave and refrigerator. Wireless Internet access is complimentary. They even offer an airport shuttle from the Atlanta airport for a nominal fee. Maybe some of our more distant family members will take this opportunity to attend the reunion this year.

To reserve your room, call the hotel at (866) 523-2938 toll-free or (706) 884-6175 and let them know you are with the Dingler Family Reunion. You must mention the reunion to get our special rate. Rooms must be booked before June 23 for the special rate. If you wait until the last minute to book, you’re going to pay the prevailing rate.

Please make your reservations as early as possible. The sooner we know how many people are going to attend the reunion, the better able we can plan for the weekend. We need to book a minimum of ten rooms for the discounted rate.

After you book your rooms, please send an email to reunion@dingler-family.org and let us know that you’ve booked and the number that will be attending.
