Like, John, we (Deb and I) will not be golfing but will be in on everything
else. I am sure it is my technological limitations, but I was not able to
access "the attached file". I clicked on the 2 links below but both took me to
the hotel booking and we have already booked our rooms.

I, like my political doppelganger Les, will not be golfing. Please sign me up

Thanks,

Hello Gentlemen,
Please take a look at the attached file. It's what I have so far for rooms
booked and golf. If your name is on there twice, it's because I have you down
as bringing your spouse. Please let me know if things are correct, and if I
need to add you to the golf arrangements.
There are also columns for dinners and non-golf activities. I'll need to know
what other activities you and yours would like to take part in. Either reply
to this or email me separately at greggachatz@xxxxxxxxxxx or text me at
904-434-1987, whatever works best for you and let me know what I should put you
down for. I'll keep an updated list and send out periodically. FYI golf tee
times for Friday will be scheduled so that the golfers can also take the TPC
Sawgrass Clubhouse tour. Depending on the interest level for St Augustine,
I'll try to get transportation arranged. It's about a 45 minute drive from
Ponte Vedra Beach.
Also, we've used up our initial allotment of rooms, but the hotel will extend
our $169/room deal for another batch of 10. Some of you on the list haven't
signed up for your room yet. Here's the link to the reservation page at the
hotel.

Looking forward to seeing all of you in FL! And Happy Thankgiving!

Gentlemen,
Please use the link below to make your hotel reservations as soon as you can.
This is the Hilton Garden Inn in Ponte Vedra Beach. It's conveniently close to
golf and other weekend activities. We currently have a block of 20 rooms held
at $169.00

Some potential activities I'm working on:
TPC Sawgrass clubhouse tour followed by dinner Tasting tour at the St Augustine
distillery followed by lunch at the Fish Camp.
Golf at Ponte Vedra Inn and Club Ocean course (site of the 1936 Ryder cup) or
the TPC Sawgrass Valley Course. (Note if anybody wants to play the TPC Stadium
Couse, where they have the PLAYERS Championship, let me know - but it's super
pricey - I'll see if I can make arrangements.
Golf plus reception at The Yards, a 13 hole course (ironically, the starter
there is a Pike from George Mason U). Front 9 is regular set up, the final 4
holes are all par 3s, and can be used for a skins game if you'd like.
Dinner on the beach at the Lodge and Club.
Except for the distillery tour, everything is 5 minutes from the hotel, and the
hotel will provide transportation.
The quicker you can get your bookings in, the better I'll be able to know final
numbers for the activity options above.
Thanks,
Gregg Achatz

Gentlemen,
The reunion committee has decided to take our annual gathering out of Tucson
after 3 years and go to Florida! Go figure as the Chairman and now Gary
Cunningham live here along with our brother Greg Achatz. Gregg will be taking
over Stan's duties of arranging just about everything since he lives in Ponte
Vedra Beach. Yes, we are going to a nice golf Suburb of Jacksonville Florida!
We will be staying at a very nice Hilton Garden Inn Sawgrass with a great Irish
Pub! Dates are lining up to be March 17th, Saint Pat's Day! thru the 20th of
March. It is after the big golf tournaments and should be spectacular weather.
We need to book at least 10 rooms to get a great rate of $169.00; golfing looks
great fro Friday and Saturday and two spectacular courses. NEED FOLKS TO
CONFIRM if they are coming and plan to golf. I know it is early but need an
idea for planning purposes. The Beach is close by for those non-golfers and
plenty to do in the area. I know it is a haul for those of you out West; just
think of Win Smith, Techau and myself coming from the East all these years.
Matt Harelson has promised to Host in Carlsbad in 2024!
Broph
