Hello All,
This is going to be short and sweet, and hopefully I can get this one out without anything else happening.
It's that time of year again, time for the 27th annual Whittaker Reunion, on Friday, June 25th to Sunday, June 27th!
As some of you are aware, we had to alter locations from St. Robert to Springfield, MO. Most of us have been to the reunions
in Springfield before, so you know the drill. Bass Pro Shops and the Battlefield Mall are just down the street. Dickerson Park Zoo is close by, and Branson's an hour away.
The hotel is the Lamplighter South, located at 1772 S. Glenstone,
Springfield, MO. There are rooms with either 2 Queen-sized beds, or single King-sized beds, smoking, or non-smoking rooms
available. There is an elevator available to the upper floors, as well as handicap-accessible rooms available. There is an
outdoor pool and hot tub enclosed in the courtyard.
There is a complimentary breakfast with a Waffle Bar in the mornings, as well as a 24-hour restaurant that offers room
service from 7am-11pm. Free hi-speed Internet and Wi-Fi access is available.
We will have both meeting rooms (Sunshine-A and Sunshine-B) available to us exclusively on Friday afternoon/evening, and
all-day Saturday. The meeting room is very nice, and I believe it will suit our needs quite well.
Our price for the sleeping rooms are $79.95 + tax, per night. To get that rate, you need to call, as opposed to
making reservations online, and you need to make sure you mention you are with the Whittaker Reunion. You may also use my
name (James Whittaker). Should you have any problems, ask for Gina at the hotel, or feel free to call me, and I'll try to
straighten things out from my end.
The number for reservations is 800-749-7275, or locally, 417-882-1113. Try to book as early as possible, as of
right now, there are 12 rooms reserved for us. I can get more, but the sooner I know, the better.
As a reminder, quilt squares need to be mailed to Linda Whittaker by MAY 15th. Her address is:
Linda Whittaker
73 Liberty Rd.
Fair Grove, MO 65648
Don't forget your items for the auction, and well, you know the drill by now. :)
I'll be sending a supplemental e-mail in about a week, with additional details, and directions to the hotel and the restaurant for Saturday evening's meal.
Hope to see all of you there!
Love,
Jay, Maria, Ashley, Megan, and Jesse
