Reunion Update #9

40th Reunion – Update #9 – Registration Gouge

Message From Your Reunion Coordinator           

Greetings ’82!  I know it’s been a frustrating wait for information regarding the reunion and for that the committee and I want you to know that we understand and have been working tirelessly behind the scenes trying to finalize events, venues, pricing, etc.  This time around it hasn’t been easy.  A lot has changed in Annapolis since our 35th and COVID did not help.  Lodging, catering, venue rentals, etc., have become more complicated and very expensive and the committee and I have attempted to simplify the process and keep your costs down as much as possible.  Using past reunion attendance numbers and factoring in Alumni Association data we tried to develop an SOE that included the traditional reunion events and maximized the time you have with friends, roommates, teammates, etc.  In any case we are ready to send out the link to the online registration site.  You’ll find it below but before you click on that link there are a couple things that you should know:

  1. Schedule of Events – we will have most of our traditional events for the reunion with one big exception. We will not have a Crab Feast this time around.  Venues for an event such as this are hard to come by and Mike’s on South River is no longer doing large group reservations.  Thursday evening will be an open time slot for companies, sports teams, ECA’s and other groups to gather and share sea stories.  Please check with classmates in your companies, teams and ECA’s to see if anything is planned.  Friday evening’s schedule will be a repeat of Thursday.

We added a few new events to accommodate early arrivals and late leavers.  Thursday morning, we will have an Arrival Coffee at the Naval Academy Club (the old O-Club) and an opportunity to take a tour of the Yard – a lot has changed since 26 May 1982 and if you haven’t been back for a while, you might enjoy seeing all the new or renovated buildings and structures.  We will also have an opportunity to tour the new cyber defense building – Hopper Hall – on Thursday afternoon as well.  On Saturday morning we will do our requisite/mandatory/optional 5-yr PRT running/walking event (known better as the Old Goat Run) and Sunday morning we will be holding a class bike ride on the B&A Trail the entrance to which is located just up the road from the Severn River bridge.  We are also attempting to set up a community service project with the Midshipman Action Group on Saturday morning.  You’ll find more details at the class website and on the registration site.  If you plan on participating in any of these events, make sure you roger-up for them when you register – it will help us with numbers.

On a more somber note, we have added the inurnment of our classmate Glenn Snyder to the SOE.  This ceremony will take place from 2:00 – 3:00 PM on Thursday at the Columbarium adjacent to the Naval Academy Cemetery on Hospital Point. Please consider paying your respects and supporting Glenn’s family by attending if you are in the area.

  1. Spouses and loved ones of our deceased classmates: Please email me (rbclyborne@gmail.com) or call me (410-703-3138) if you would like to attend the reunion.  We will have a special registration process in place to assist you.
  1. Registration: Several items before you head out to the website:
  1. We are using a vendor approved by the Alumni Association called SignUpNow. SignUpNow is owned by Evan Barnet USNA ’91.  They have done all of the reunions over the past two years and from what we can tell they will do a great job for us.
  2. You will have to create an account when you register. This will allow you to return to the site to make changes (if needed) to the events that you want to attend or add guests after you register.  You will also be able to see “Shout Outs” from fellow classmates, attendee numbers by company and we will also place updates or changes to events on the site along with the class website.  There is a lot of good information on the site including a FAQ section.  If you have any problems with registering, please let me know.
  3. Only classmates will be charged the registration fee of $82. Adding guests will not increase your registration fee even after you register.  For those of you who have family members attending USNA or if you are a sponsor and want your sponsored midshipmen to attend the tailgater – you can add them as guests when you register.  These midshipmen will need to follow all USNA regulations while attending the tailgater.
  4. Some events do not have a fee associated with them – Old Goat Run, Bike Ride, Memorial Service, Hopper Hall tour, etc. We encourage you to register for these events to give us a better idea of the number of people planning on attending.
  5. Early online registration will end on 13 October (two weeks out from the reunion). After the 13th the registration fee will go up to $100, the Post-Parade Reception fee will go up to $100 per person and the Tailgater fee will go up to $200 per person.  PLEASE NOTE: If you show up at the tailgater on Saturday and you did not register through the registration website prior to that date (10/29) the fee to enter the tailgater will be $350 per person and does not include the football game ticket fee.  You must have a football game ticket to attend the tailgater – no exceptions.
  6. Deadline for registering for having printed nametags is 01 October. If you have not registered before then you most likely will not receive a nametag in your geedunk bag at registration.
  7. Golf Registration: We only have 16 spots available at the USNA Golf Course on Thursday afternoon. We will be sharing the course with the Class of 1972.  There will be a waiting list created in case our 16 slots increase.
  1. Reunion Check-In: Reunion check-in will take place at the Historic Inns of Annapolis at 16 Church Circle in Annapolis. We will be using the Crown & Crab Room.  Check-In hours will be – Thursday 1200 – 1800; Friday 0900 – 1800; Saturday 1300 – Halftime.  We will put out parking information for HIA if any will be available.

For those who will go to the Naval Academy Club (NAC) between 0800 – 1200 on Thursday, 27 October for coffee and/or tours, please check in at NAC for those two specific events with ’82 reunion staff. After 1200, check in for the 40th reunion at the Crown & Crab room at 16 Church Circle.

  1. REMINDER: You will need a ticket to the football game to attend the tailgater (no exceptions). Tickets can be purchased at Navy Sports | Online Ticket Office | Promotions (evenue.net).  Use the Promo Code of 1982.
  1. Here’s the registration website link: Class of 1982 40th Reunion Registration

That’s it for now.  Please keep watch on your email inbox for updates from Rett Rasmussen our Reunion Communications Director.  If you have any questions about any reunion related item, please shoot me an email or give me a call.  The committee and I are excited about seeing everyone in October and we are continuing to work to make your experience a memorable one.  Thanks for your patience!

From Goat One Jane Conley:

  • Getting really close to registration link release, hold on for just a bit longer. The link will be released via this email distribution and the website,  http://1982.usnaclasses.net. Follows are a few pending taskers if applicable prior to signing up for the 40th reunion events:
  1. Make sure you have your football tickets if you are planning to go to the tailgater in the ’53 pavilion. Access navysports.com, click on the “tickets” tab, select “enter ticket promo codes”, then type 1982 in the text bar. The tickets are digital. If you haven’t used the process, there are videos and FAQs on https://navysports.com/sports/2020/8/10/navy-digital-ticketing.aspxthat explain processes for different transactions. To purchase seats and not standing room only in the two hill sections, please call Mac Loud at (410) 293-8743. “Hill 2” is the section closest to our tailgater.
  2. Order Class merchandise, the site to preorder clothing articles to wear to the reunion and other places is at http://www.usnaclasstore.com/82store.html The ball cap shown in this link is not the ball cap that will be in the registration gedunk bag.
