Schedule of Events:

            From all of the feedback I have been getting from members, I believe we are going to have a large turnout for our Orlando Reunion this year. The Rodeway Inn is located right in the middle of International Drive and there are a great many fine restaurants and shopping establishments within easy walking distance of the hotel. There is a huge Prime Outlook factory outlet mall about a mile away, and Disney World, Universal City and Sea World are a short drive away. Our Hospitality Suite will be in the Presidential Suite on the 9th floor, and my wife Sylvia and I will be checking into the room next to it NLT Wednesday October 7. Our Reunion registration will be right there also, so come on up and look us up when you get there, and we will help you get squared away. For those of you who attended the 1988 and 1990 Reunions, the Rodeway Inn was called the International Inn in those days and is still much the same. It is being refurbished at this time and looks fine. Here is the planned schedule for each day:
