Third Thursday of the Month Meeting (20 October, 2011) Has Been Cancelled.

Aloha Crusaders of 1979,

The Third Thursday of the Month Meeting that was scheduled for October 20, 2011 will be cancelled because we will be in Las Vegas for our 50th Birfday Get-Away . See you at the First Wednesday of the Month Meeting on November 2nd, 2011 at 7pm at the St. Louis Alumni Clubhouse.

Well, the 50th Birfday Las Vegas Get-Away is just around the corner and this is the schedule of events:

Thursday, Oct 20, Golfing (10:30 tee-time, course tbd),
Friday, Oct 21, Cocktail/Pupu Get Together (7pm, location tbd),
Saturday, Oct 22, Buffet Dinner at the Ballagio (7pm), and
Sunday, Oct 23, Golfing (10:30 tee-time, course tbd).
-Green fees are estimated to be $65 per person.
-If you are planning on golfing on Thursday, and I had not called you yet about it, call me and let me know so that we can plan accordingly.

We still need suggestions for the Cocktail/Pupu Get Together!
(Hey Vegas guys, give us the scoops on the home town hang outs!)

This schedule leaves alot of time for other things like relaxing (relaxing?), shopping, sight seeing, go-carting, zip lining, roller coastering, bowling, and of course gambling, or whatever tickles your fancy.  Oh, there will also be a bully dog show going on too.

Since we will be pulling stuff out of my shorts and shooting from the hip for get together locations, it would be best to call me on my cell (808-351-2862) for the latest scoops. I will have a list of contact numbers of the all guys who are planning on being there.

I would like to thank Clayton Miyata (Dru's brother) for his assistance with the golf tee times and Steve Adams for getting favorable room rates over the the Golden Nugget.

I look forward to seeing everyone that is planning on being there.

And now a note from Karlton Borges:

"Hey Gang,

I'm excited and so glad that this is going to culminate in just a few days. The chance of meeting up with friends that we last saw in May 1979. 2011 marks 32 years of patience in waiting. My hats off to all who attend or had even a hand in planning this. In just another 3 more years it's going to be our 35 Class Reunion. Please enjoy yourselves be safe, gamble wisely and God Bless all of You. This is being sent out to the entire class, in case there is an opening in your schedule and you may be headed Las Vegas way, stop on by.

On behalf of The Class of 1979 Board President, Mel Pilien and I The Class of 1979 Board Secretary/Treasurer, thank you for your past and ongoing participation. Our numbers our growing, but, we need more turn out. Appreciative of all that has transpired, great job to all. Mahalo and Thanks.

Aloha,
Karlton "
