A Word to Those Who Want to Participate But Not Book Lodging

This gets complicated. There are no daily activities planned (see the reasons above).
So the only time you have for networking is meal time and the Tuesday evening reception.

If you want meals you would need to pay an Off-Site Fee as well as a nominal meal charge.
There is a risk that overall utiliztion of Asilomar will block meals for off-site participants.

These special bookings must be made via the Reunion Committee.
but not before the first of March.
Don't wait until the last minute.

Everyone has their own set of circumstances.
If you have a question, e-mail Grey Whipple

Golf aficionado Bob Foote has offered to put together a golf package.
He reports that about 20 classmates did a golf thing at our 50th reunion
and had a wonderful time,not because of their scores but because of the
opportunity to reconnect with old friends.

Golf Update from Bob Foote

It's now definite. I have booked the "55/55" golf tournament at the
Pacific Grove Municipal Golf Course. It's about 2 miles from Asilomar.
It's a very scenic fairly short course.We have tee times for 4 foursomes
starting at 9:15 on Sept 8th.
