Avel Gathering 2018
AVEL “Gathering”, Charlotte Area 2018
We are having a Gathering of AVEL Vietnam vets in the Charlotte area this October. We are not having a formal Reunion this year but will have a much more relaxed, informal get together. We will have a Hospitality Room as a meeting place to talk, share a cocktail and look at the slideshow to bring back all those fond (for the most part) memories.
There will be a group dinner and a group activity yet to be determined.
PLEASE REGISTER HERE ON THE WEBSITE! There is no obligation but if you think you are coming, PLEASE REGISTER so we have an idea of the size of the crowd.
Dates: 18 October - 21 October 2018
Room Rates: $109.00/night + normal taxes. This rate will be honored for 3 days before and after the scheduled Gathering dates. Breakfast is included!
Reunion Cost: $70.00/person attending. This will include the group dinner, snacks and drinks in the Hospitality Room, ladies lunch and other activities to be determined.
