Reunion News
4/27/03--2003 Reunion was a big success. Well the reunion is now history and I hope everyone who attended had a great time. We served over 300 people at lunch, over 100 at Eddie Hoch's fried fish plate sale (to benefit the scholarship fund) and the dance had a good turn out also. I was running around so much that I only got to take a couple of pictures at the reunion, so if anyone has pictures they would like to share with everyone, please email them to me at rlblack@granderiver.net and I will post them to the new 2003 Reunion Picture Page.

1/26/03--I have had several requests for information on hotels in the area. I know some have already booked the La Posada Hotel for the reunion weekend, but here is info on several nice hotels in Laredo.
|
|
La Posada--average room rates--$135-$185. Old historic hotel located on the river. Local phone number--956-722-1701 or reservations number--800-444-2099. |
|
|
Holiday Inn--average room rates--$75-$95. Fairly new hotel, located on IH35, easy access. Local phone number--956-727-5800 or reservations number--800-379-8741. |
|
|
Marriott Courtyard--average room rates--$80-$115. Newest of the major hotels in Laredo, located next to the Holiday Inn, easy access. Local phone number--956-725-5555. |
These rates were obtained by doing a reservation check for each hotel online for April, 2003. There are many other hotels in Laredo, but these are probably the three largest and most popular. Hope this helps.
