The activities started on Friday, August 15th with a full day of BS and sea stories and a chance to go out and tour the area. Friday evening there was a mixer at the hotel. Saturday during the day a bus arrived to pick up the ladies and take them on a full tour of the area including lots of shopping opportunities. For the guys, it was down to business to plan the next reunion and elect new officers. Saturday night there was a gala banquet. with awards and introduction of the new association officers. This was followed by a live band and a spacious dance floor. Sunday morning (last day of the reunion) featured a memorial and commemoration service. This was a great time to bid farewell to old and new friends.
