They are holding 30 rooms for the reunion. The standard room rate ranges from $99-149, but we have a special rate of $74.00 per night.
To reserve your room at the reunion rate, call the hotel directly at (501) 374-9000 and tell them that you are with the Dingler Family Reunion. You need to make reservations no later than June 20, 2007, to take advantage of this rate.
We will have a hospitality room available all-day Friday and Saturday. The room holds 50-60 people so we will have plenty of room. The hotel is conveniently located in downtown Little Rock. The River Rail Electric Streetcar is a trolley line that runs from the hotel area down to the Clinton Library and the Riverfront District.
There will be a banquet on Saturday night near the hotel. As soon as we know more, the details will be posted. Many thanks to our local hosts for this reunion, Glenn and Jessie Dingler, and their work in making arrangements.
Some info about our host city. Little Rock, a city of 184,055 and a metro area of 580,625, is the capital city of Arkansas. In 1722, the French explorer, Bernard de LaHarpe sailed up the Arkansas River and upon sighting the first rock bluff since leaving the Mississippi River, called it “La Petite Roche”, the Little Rock. Some Little Rock attractions include:
