Greetings, Everyone and Happy Friday! Wanted to send an update as we move into the weekend and trying to hit our goal of at least 100 attendees for this year's reunion.

Please see the updated menu below (we heard some comments about tacos over the past couple years, so we are going to try something else new this year, more like banquet food and see how that is received).

The 2026 Reunion Menu;
Lemon Herb Chicken Breast & Braised Burgundy Beef
Dinner Rolls and Butter
Sides - Mashed Potatoes, Grilled Zucchini and Squash, Angel Hair Marinara
Guest Choice Salad Garden & Caesar Salad
Garden Salad Mixed Lettuce topped with Cheese, Tomatoes, Cucumbers, and Carrots
Dressings: Ranch or Italian
Caesar Salad Romaine Lettuce, Tomatoes, Parmesan Cheese, Croutons
Dessert Cheesecake or Chocolate Cake

Happy Hour Appetizers
Fresh Vegetables with Dip - Celery, Carrots, Broccoli, and Cucumber & Homestyle Ranch Dip.
Sweet ‘N Spicy Meatballs - Italian style meatballs in a sweet and spicy sauce.

BLUF: We have only sold 76 tickets to this year's upcoming reunion and are 18 days until we
must submit a headcount to the Banquet Manager. This is woefully short of the past few years
where we were well above 100 tickets sold by now. If we don't reach at least 100 tickets sold
by 25 MAY, we will be in danger of having to cancel this year's reunion. We don't want to do
that, and know that folks who have already bought tickets and made travel plans definitely
wouldn't want that either.

Please, if you are planning to attend, purchase your tickets without delay so that we can
continue planning for another awesome event, one that most of us look forward to all year.
Please also share with your stick buddies and battle buddies who you think would like to
attend. This is the one day/evening per year that we all have the opportunity to get together
and catch up, celebrate our retirees, and remember and honor those we have lost.

If we do not sell at least 100 tickets, the event will most likely be cancelled and possibly pushed
to next year and perhaps continued on an every other year basis unless interest resurges.
If the event ends up being cancelled, all who have purchased tickets and/or made donations,
will be refunded in full.

Please see the attached list of current attendees as it stands today.
Please see the below link to purchase your tickets and please do so at your earliest convenience
so that we can continue to plan accordingly. Thanks, and we look forward to hopefully seeing
you all on June 6th!

Greetings, ! The list of current attendees for next month's reunion has been sent via our distro list email. Ticket sales are down in numbers from previous events, but the hope is that folks may have not yet had the opportunity to purchase or are still figuring out their schedules.
We have received generous donations by both the SoCal Chapter of The Army Aviation Association of America (AAAA) and the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of The Greater Los Angeles Chapter Association of the United States Army to assist in putting this event on. Thank you, Chapter Presidents, John Hendrickson and Peter Seitz! Your support is what enables us to continue putting this awesome event on every year!
Also, JFTB recently commissioned a contractor to repaint the Cobra on static display right outside of Fiddlers recently and it looks fantastic! Please see the attached photos courtesy of Ron Cabrera who tells us it's even more impressive in person.
Please see the below link to purchase your tickets and please do so at your earliest convenience so that we can continue to plan accordingly. Thanks, and we look forward to seeing you all on June 6th!
