Centaur Veteran's Day Reunion

6 to 9 November 2020 - Tampa, Florida

see list of potential attendees

Update 1June 2020

Blane Kirby and (Bob Jones) will be hosting the 2020 Centaur Reunion, contingent on the Coronvirus situation.

The 2020 Centaur Reunion will be held 6 – 9 Nov 2020 at the Hampton Inn & Suites Tampa Airport Avion Park Westshore. Tampa, FL. Those dates were chosen since they fall over the weekend when most are celebrating the holiday vs, the 11th. This location is very close to the Tampa Airport which will make it very easy to access for those flying to the reunion. This hotel has a large meeting room which we are trying to reserve for us to gather and socialize, renew old acquaintances, tell war stories, have liquid and lite refreshments, and otherwise enjoy each others company.

Click here to go to the reservation link to the hotel. The room rate is $114/night. Rooms can be reserved by either calling the number on the page or by clicking on the Book a Room” tab.

IF calling, be sure to mention the code “DFR” to receive the reunion rate.

The Parade is in the Town & Country area in Tampa (close to the hotel), it starts at 10:00 am and it runs for approximately 2 - 2 1/2 hours. Our participation in the Veterans Day Parade has been arranged.

The dinner is going to be at the Columbia Restaurant which is an old Spanish restaurant in the heart of historic Ybor City. It will be Saturday November 7th from 6:00 pm to 11:00 (if that much time is needed) and the price will be $46.00 pp. The Columbia is a very nice restaurant (not formal but very good food).

We are requesting that if you plan on attending or are thinking strongly about it, to please let us know of your intentions so that we may plan accordingly. You may send your reply to Blane Kirby at blanekirby1@gmail.com or Bob Jones at centaur54@gmail.com.
