Hawaii Update

       We are getting quite close to the big Hawaii Trip and things are coming into very clear view now. I appreciate those of you that have sent me your payments for the Game, Tailgate and game transportation. The dinner plan is finalized for Friday evening at Tommy Bahamas Restaurant. I have attached a PDF flyer for this event. The total cost per person is $138.00. This includes 2 hours of beer, wine and well drinks and a nice sit down dinner with a choice of soup/salad and entrees of Fish, Chicken, Ribs or Steak plus a choice of dessert. The party will be on the rooftop at the Tommy Bahama Restaurant. See this trip advisor link: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g60982-d8805974-Reviews-Tommy_Bahama_Restaurant_Bar_Store-Honolulu_Oahu_Hawaii.html. For a nice 3 hour event with all your food and drinks for an evening with a spectacular view of Waikiki….. I could not find a better spot and option for us after some serious research, so, I hope most everyone will attend. The attached flyer has info on how to pay me for this as I have had to do this with paying an advance deposit and then paying the bill at the restaurant that night, so I will collect in advance via paypal or check to me. See the flyer.

Here is the schedule of events so far:

Thursday: 0845 Pearl Harbor Tour (this is closed out except for those who are confirmed)

            1730 Meet at the Hale Koa Beach Bar for a pre-event of the Luau Dinner

Friday:  Friday tour with Rich Tilghman (this is also closed out, he it taking a private tour of Oahu for those who signed up)

1700-2000 Class Cocktail and Dinner Party at the Tommy Bahama Restaurant

Saturday:  1200 Bus Departures for Stadium and USNA ’85 Tailgate (This might change, but right now plan on 12:00) Buses will do pick ups at Waikiki Marriott, Hale Koa and the Laylow Marriott (A group of 16th Co. couples are joining us on Saturday off an Inter-Island Cruise staying at this hotel near the other hotels).

      1700 Navy vs. Hawaii game kick off

             Post Blue and Gold plus 30 minutes buses depart for hotels.

Sunday 1200-1900 Buses will depart hotels for Rich Tilghman’s house for Class Pool and Beach Party at Kailua Beach (Hawaii’s best beach). Cost is TBA, we will get back to you soon with more details on cost and payment options.

I will be reaching out next week with a list of who has paid me and who has not, but please get me your money for the paid events prior to the 15th as I have to pay in advance and will be covering funds out of pocket if I do not receive your money and you still want to attend. This will make my life easier not having to chase people down for money, if I have to, you owe me beers! So, enjoy the last month of summer and get ready for this amazing Hawaii Trip. Please reach out to me with any questions or changes or cancellations (hopefully none).
