I’m happy to announce that the 35th Annual Dingler Family Reunion will be held in Montgomery, Alabama, July 18-20. The reunion has been in Montgomery four times before, the most recent in 1996.  This year will be the 30th anniversary of the first Montgomery reunion in 1984.

A block of rooms has been reserved at the Staybridge Suites (Eastchase) at a daily rate of $109 plus tax.  To book your room, call the hotel at 334-277-9383 and ask for the Dingler Family Reunion rate. For more information about the hotel, you can visit their website. The hotel is located east of Montgomery just of I-80.  The Shoppes at Eastchase, a new open-air shopping mall is nearby, and downtown Montgomery is only 9 miles away on the interstate.

We’ll post more as details become available. If you will be joining us in Montgomery this July, please send us an email at reunion@dingler-family.org and let us know.

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!
