| there is still much to do but we did want to go ahead and get the dates out for those interested so they can make sure they request their time off we have decided to set the dates as the weekend prior to halloween. the dates of october 21-23 2011 are established as the dates we will be doing it in the big easy was in new orleans this past week discussing options and we picked these dates over the weekend of the 28-30 primarily because of the following (1) allows people to spend time with their children, grandchildren and family for halloween (2) financial reasons - so much cheaper the weekend before halloween in new orleans (3) permits for the parade are much easier to obtain on the weekend before halloween we are presently working with a number of hotels and trying to determine our best options and will be posting information in regards to this very soon...............hoping to block out a section of a hotel or two the highlight of the weekend will be a parade/pub crawl straight through the french quarter. we are presently working with several sponsors and this will turn out to be a charity event aiding the make a wish foundation. all entry fees for parade will go directly to the charity - 100 percent so not only are we going to have a blast - we are also going to raise several thousand dollars in the process for a great charity again more information will be coming out but if your interested in attending the reunion and the parade that weekend please chime in and let us know - we are expecting between 100 and 150 people all told and will more than likely have to limit it at 150 for permit reasons we currently have about 50 verbals and i am realistically expecting over 100 rob

| I've been known to bare mine... so I can assure you that if we get to New Orleans these sweater puppies will be out. Legal or not. Even in my older age I'm still rebellious.. |

Now that we have got the dates - people can at least begin to start making some preliminary arrangements - Our next step is locking up a hotel then setting the route for Saturdays parade and pub crawl then securing the parade permit........hoping to wrap this part up in the next few weeks as we have some awesome contacts/sponsors in new Orleans ![]() Will just have to take it in steps - but given a year to prepare (as opposed to three months) I'm certain that this one will blow all the others away

I was expecting some pics of Lynfa dancing with the pole. I am absolutely certain I heard that mentioned in the pre-party chatter. Is someone holding out???? I guess some would also call that pole-dancing!!!! Unless she was actually dancing with a Pole. Last edited by rdubnpk; 11-17-2010 at 01:22 PM. | |

| It's actually a great question ![]() I am hoping that in the next few weeks we can do a strictly informational sticky with reunion/parade information. At the present time we are working with the make a wish foundation as our charity. They are very excited to be included and their total involvement will certainly make this magnificent parade all the more special The parade through the qtr is beyond words. Until you have experienced it it's almost impossible to comprehend. We will have a band which leads us from bar to bar throughout the qtr complete with a police escort & grand marshal Kat of tmac/Kat on cancuncare will be setting a theme and everyone will dress the part and we will parade and party from bar to bar all afternoon long - oh and there will also be a fun game which our sponsors will help us with

I, for one, and I am sure all the Cancuncare males are devistated that there are no pics. There are very few things that make our pitiful lives worth living and the anticipation of hot Welsh women pole-dancing semi-clothed in their choice of old west American outfits is one thing that could have gotten us through the winter and, quite possibly, through Spring. I must adamantly protest and request that you make some substitute pictorial gesture to make amends. Otherwise, the damage to international relations may be beyond repair. | |

Seeing as "Cancuncare" would be getting some free advertising, maybe Steve would allow some solicitation for donations through the site??? | |
