New York State Marine Corps Reunion
We are looking for few good men - from New York!
Be a part of history in the making at the first-ever New York State Marine Corps Reunion to be held June 7-10, 2007, in Niagara Falls, NY. This is a beautiful time of year to visit the spectacular Falls and all the attractions of the area. Families are most welcome as this would also make a nice family weekend or vacation.
All Marines and FMF Corpsmen in or from New York are invited to attend. Active duty, Reserves, Veterans of WWII, North China, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Afghanistan, & Iraq campaigns and the Cold War, as well as Navy Corpsmen, will gather to renew those special bonds forged in service, at home, abroad, at sea, and in combat. All conflicts, all ages, all spouses and family members are invited.
Rooms are available all week so you may arrive early or stay late at the same rate. Hospitality Rooms will be open throughout the weekend for your enjoyment. The first official activity of this historic event will be a Welcome Dinner & Mixer on Thursday.
Friday will include optional tours of Niagara Falls and a ride on the famous Maid of the Mist, a visit to the Marine Memorial, Naval Park & Museum, Old Fort Niagara, and the Niagara Aerospace Museum. A mammoth, new casino is just a few blocks away (walking distance for most). A wonderful Barbeque dinner is planned for Friday night followed by music from a Marine Corps Band and of course more time in the hospitality room.
Saturday will feature more optional tours like a visit to the Canadian side of the Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Outlet Mall shopping, and a ride into the Whirlpools on a Jet Boat. Saturday night features a Gala Banquet dinner with entertainment and a special guest speaker. This will be a great reunion with something for everyone!
Make your reservations NOW! We have only a limited number of hotel rooms available at the special price of $99.95 plus tax. Only the first 125 people who make their hotel reservations will get this super low rate. Additional rooms in the headquarters hotel will be more expensive. We are holding overflow rooms in nearby hotels should the host hotel sell out. It does not cost anything to make the reservation and you may cancel later (up to 30 days before the reunion) with no penalty.
Do not delay; we need to know how many are coming! Please make your hotel room reservations today by calling the Days Inn at the Falls directly at 1-800-777-2280 or 716-284-8801 and request the special convention rate for the New York State Marines Reunion.
