The Centaurs (Troop D (Air), 3d Sqdn, 4th Cav and Troop F (Air), 4th Cav) will be gathering for their 16th Annual Veterans Day Reunion during the 9 - 12 November 2019 period.  Anyone who served as a Centaur or is a Centaur Friend is invited to join us in Bowling Green, Kentucky  to honor our lost friends & renew old friendships.
 
The host for this year is Harry Rogers, LOH Scout Crew Chief 1972.

Email: amosuh60a@nctc.com .......See Agenda & Information!

Address: The reunion site will be the Hampton Inn, 233 Three Springs Rd, Bowling Green, KY 42104

Rate: The estimated group room rate is $89, including tax.

When: The official days are Saturday, 9 Nov, & departing on Tuesday, 12 Nov.

Extra Days? The hotel has included some extra days in our group package beyond the start and the end of the weekend just in case people have different travel plans and want this great rate for those days also.

Direct Booking: Guests can call the hotel directly at (270) 842-4100 and book a room in the D/F Troop Centaur Cav Reunion block. Or guests can use this direct link to book. CLICK HERE

Please tell Harry if you are attending. One of the biggest challenges in hosting a function like this is estimating the number of people attending. Rooms need to be blocked out, meals and travel arrangements need to be coordinated, etc. If you think you might be able to attend, please send Harry an email so he can do a probable attendance list.
