2008 Reunion Information

Our 2008 Reunion will again be held along with the 101^st Association reunion.  The dates are August 13-16, 2008 and will be held at the Circus Circus complex in Reno, NV.  The reunion fees are listed below.   We suggest you sign up early and as more information becomes available we will post it here. 

The 506^th and 502^nd Associations are also going to hold their reunions at this same location, dates and time so this will be a big one.  The 506^th Association has been very gracious and is giving us space in their large hospitality room for our Silent Auction items and we will hold our live auction on Saturday night following the 506^th dinner.  This dinner will conflict with the 101^st Awards dinner so each Currahee will have to make a choice on which dinner to attend.  We are trying to avoid conflicts but this being a very large gathering we may have no choice.  Our Currahee ladies have planned the ladies luncheon complete information follows below.
