We know. We know!

And we are sorry. The mistake in the DAM story "Rising From the Ruins" (Nov/Dec 2009 issue) that refers to the Class of 1996 Lodge is regrettable and unforgivable. We've heard from you, we are aware of it, and we will let all readers know of it in our next issue.

Class of '66 Golf Weekend Update!


Members of the Class of 1966:

Enthusiasm for a weekend getaway in sunny Naples, FL, is building as the snow drifts deep along the road up north. So far, seven classmates (accompanied by golfing and non-golfing spouses) have confirmed that they are coming or have expressed strong interest. The roster to date: Rick MacMillan, Bill Hobson, Ken Zuhr, Jeff Gilbert, Arne Rovick, Al Keiller and Mike Urbanic.

To review the details:

  • April 16: Arrive in Ft. Myers (airport code RSW) and transfer to hotel in Naples (about 45 minutes from the airport); dinner on your own at select restaurants
  • April 17: Morning round at Naples Grande, followed by lunch; afternoon play may also be available (plus activities all day for non-golfers); cocktail reception and group dinner
  • April 18: Morning round at Bonita Bay followed by lunch; afternoon play may also be available (plus activities for non-golfers); group dinner and awards
  • April 19: Group breakfast; depart from Ft. Myers

Greens fees (including cart) at Bonita are $92 per person and $85 per person at Naples Grande. The Trianon Hotel in downtown Naples (not the one in Bonita Springs) will be our headquarters hotel. It's about 13 miles from either course and walkable to shopping and beach. The rooms will be $170 per night (including continental breakfast), and the hotel will hold 10-15 rooms for us until March 1. You will book your own reservations with the hotel; cancellations prior to March 1 will not incur a fee, but cancellations beyond that date will pay the full amount for 3 nights.

We have also made arrangements with the Marriott Courtyard/Naples. Their rates are $89 plus tax (no breakfast) and $99 plus tax (with continental breakfast for two). However, the Courtyard is not near downtown and will therefore require a car for those non-golfers who want to go into town during the day. I personally recommend that you stay at the Trianon.

Meals and beverages will be the responsibility of each attendee (i.e., we are not making a pre-paid, packaged banquet arrangement for this event); prices at the better spots in Naples are about the same as in any major metro area.

If you have already expressed strong interest in the weekend, please firm up your arrangements as soon as possible and confirm to Mike Urbanic and me that you are coming. And if you're just getting around to thinking about this spring break in paradise, please let us know if you want to attend so we can get a headcount: jimlustenader@aol.com and mikurbs@aol.com (make sure both of us are copied on your email). Thanks--looking forward to seeing you in sunny Southwest Florida!

Best regards,
Jim Lustenader
