C - Troop News 3/5 CAV
Well its time for a new newsletter and once again I'm writing
it so
let me bring everyone up to date. At the Big Sky reunion
after the
memorial service all Troops had businesses meeting’s
to elect new or
used Reps. Our own Pete Stafford has said he had enough
and it is
time for some new blood. Pete nominated Juan Cantu to take
over
and he was elected to represent us. However after the reunion
was
over, Juan’s employer decided to change his hours
and he realized he
would not have the time for the job. He called as soon
as he found
out, talked to me about it, I called Pete and together
we are taking
over the Reps job. That should bring everyone up to date
so far,
and now on to the good stuff.
The C Troop Reunion will be held at the Music Road Inn
in Pigeon
Forge. May 7th - 10th. I know it is Mother’s day
on the 11th
so we will have a Reunion Mothers Day Dinner on the night
of the
10th. My apologies' to all of the mothers, but this is
the best date we
could get. The Inn is Non Smoking however we do have 6
smoking
rooms set aside at the motel just across the parking lot
( its the same
complex ). The room rates are $94.00 + tax 11.75% a night
