2025 Reunion Huntsville, AL Oct 5-8

 The high-tech city of Huntsville, which sprawls at the foot of a mountain in North Alabama, is equally at home in the 19th century or the 21st. Huntsville's tourist attractions reflect the heritage of Alabama's first English-speaking city, the strife of the American Civil War and the accomplishments of America's rocket scientists.  

The city is nicknamed "The Rocket City" for its close history with U.S. space missions. Huntsville has been important in developing space technology since the 1950s.

REUNION REGISTRATION

Despite inflationary pressures on just about everything these days, the 2025 Reunion Fee is only going to be $220 per person.  If you remember from previous years, this is about $125 less per person.  And even though we are paying less, we are getting considerably more bang for our buck.  This year, in addition to the reunion Banquet and program, the Reunion Fee will also cover a second dinner, a Sampler Buffet of local favorites.  Both dinners will include cocktail hours.  Also, it includes complimentary breakfasts each morning, and exclusive use by 50th Company of the Park Place Ballroom for the reunion.  For those who stay the extra night, breakfast on October 9th will be included.  

To register for the reunion, please send your check made out to Scott Davis to:
