Registration Form in PDF | Registration Form in Word
This is the first call to prepare for the biennial reunion to be held in San Antonio, Texas; September 15-19, 2010. The Holiday Inn Riverwalk in downtown San Antonio is the venue. This isn't at an airport or somewhere in the boondocks, but right downtown at 217 North St. Mary's Street, just four blocks west of the Alamo!

Here's the hot skinny on making sure you have a place at the inn.

You must make your own hotel reservations by calling (210) 224-2500.

Room rates from September 9 to 18, 2010 are $99 plus tax for single/ double/ triple/ quadruple occupancy. Hotel parking is $10/ day.

Reservations must be made by August 2, 2010 to qualify for the special rate. BE SURE TO MENTION YOU ARE WITH THE 70th INFANTRY DIVISION ASSOCIATION REUNION.

Tentative day-by-day -- the days are set, but times are tentative so be sure to check the full reunion story in the Spring 2010 edition of the Trailblazer.
