Classmates,
Just five short years ago, we joined together as the
“knobs” of the reunion classes to celebrate our
5th year reunion. To a man, we could not
believe how quickly time passed to bring us to that point
and a good time was had by all. Now, as we close in on our 10th
year reunion weekend, the planning
committee is happy to send along the following
information so you can plan to attend what is sure to
be a weekend to remember.
The Committee considered at length the idea of a Friday
night gathering for the entire class, but after
much deliberation it was decided that the class would
participate in the 2009 Reunion Jamboree which
will be held on Friday night starting at 7pm. This is an
event sponsored by the Stray Dog Society in
which each participating class is offered its own tent
at the Bus Shed on Ann Street
between King and
Meeting Streets downtown. There will be unlimited food and drinks
with live music all included for
the cost of $75.00 per person. While that price may appear steep,
it’s much less than you would
spend per person for a nice dinner and an evening on the
town. The Committee encourages each of
you to join us there and it is sure to be a good time.
You can find out more information about the
Jamboree at www.citadelstraydog.com
. You can pay for your tickets through the attached
registration form and pick them up at the front door on
Friday night.
There will also be a happy hour for those who were
Guards Friday afternoon at O’Malleys
from
4:30 until 7pm. Furthermore,
our classmate Richard Tuorto has invited us to join him at his
establishment, O’Brions
Pub and Grille, located on James
Island at 520 Folly Road
(Publix
Shopping Center) and in Mt Pleasant at 361 N. Shelmore
(I’On Neighborhood). There will be
great specials all weekend for anyone sporting The
Citadel ring.
For Saturday, we’ll have a tent behind the
Visitor’s side of Johnson-Hagood Stadium and Easterby’s
Catering will be providing their signature barbeque and
fixings. There will also be a beer truck (filled
to capacity) and non-alcoholic drinks provided. Included in the price mentioned below is
a very nice
golf shirt for the graduate along with two commemorative
cups and two koozies to enjoy the day’s
festivities.
Kickoff is 3pm and we will be playing the hated rival, Wofford (Beat Wofford, Beat
Wofford, Beat the
HELL out of Wofford). This game will be televised on Sports South. Please
note: football
tickets are NOT included in the price mentioned below and you must have a
ticket to
“march on” the field prior to kickoff.
