ALL FREEPORTERS WELCOME
CHECK BACK REGULARLY ALL UPDATED INFORMATION WILL BE POSTED HERE FIRST! |
Freeport Pretzel ReunionFreeport (Illinois) High School February 8-10, 2008 Las Vegas, Nevada ALL FREEPORTERS WELCOME We get discounts on hotel rooms and activities if we have enough numbers. Activities may include a Texas No Limit Hold 'Em poker tournament, shows, night clubs, trips to see Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon, helicopters over the strip at night...many, many choices. Please tell Lisa how many people in your group, smoking or non-smoking, how many beds, and for the banquet on Saturday, what types of food. We'll be staying at Binion's in downtown Las Vegas. Recently renovated, Binions is where the current poker craze started. Binions has a rooftop pool, three parking garages, restaurant, and several wheelchair-accessable rooms. It is located on the covered Freemont Street, home of the Freemont Street Experience. Room rates,
including all taxes and fees, start at less than $81 per night!
Call Lisa (see box at left) to have her schedule your hotel room,
airline flight, rental car and activities in Las Vegas. Activities
in Las Vegas Below is just a sampling of tours, productions, magic, headliners and attractions. Those marked in green are things my wife and I have done and recommend. These are events happening now; I can't guarantee that they will be happening in February, but most should be. We usually rent a car, and recommend that you do if you want to do a self-tour. The Las Vegas Strip is nearby, Hoover Dam is a short drive; the Grand Canyon is several hours away. Tours

Magic

Plus, there's lots of free stuff, including the Freemont Street Experience right in front of our hotel, amazing architecture and fountains, and free circus shows inside Circus Circus. There are amusement rides, including some amazing rollercoasters, one of them atop the Stratosphere! |
When should
I arrive?
Some of us are still working stiffs and have to work at least part of
the day on Friday. The good news is that Las Vegas never closes. Flights
leave Rockford in the morning and early afternoon. There are at least
four flights per hour all day leaving Chicago for Las Vegas, some leaving
as late as 9:15 pm, getting into Las Vegas at 11:05 pm, a four hour
flight, but gaining two hours in time difference.
What group
activities are planned?
The only planned group activities are the reception, probably Saturday
afternoon, and a poker tournament. Both will probably be on Saturday.
We are also looking into a Friday evening welcoming event.
What should
I wear?
Las Vegas isn't
fancy, and neither is our reunion. Just bring and wear casual clothes.
It may be cool and wet in Las Vegas in February. We are avoiding the
hot desert weather. It will be warmer than Freeport in winter, but cooler
than Florida. Bring comfortable walking shoes.
Do I have
to plan activities now?
No. Lisa may be
able to get you some package deals, and possibly some group rates if
some of us want the same things, but you can make plans later, if you
wish.
Do I have
to stay at Binions?
No. You can stay
where ever you want. Lisa negotiated very low room rates at Binions,
but if you have a condo or friends or relatives or whatever, just stay
where you want. If you just decide to show up at the reception at the
last minute, that's okay, too.
Can I help?
You betcha. Just
email Robert and volunteer!
