Ahoy Shipmates,

Thanks to Tom Pellegrino we will be having another reunion.  We will be enjoying the sights and sounds of Chicago, IL.  We will be there July 27 to July 30th.  We had problems finding a hotel for under $100.  When we did the only time they had open was in July.  I hope this works for everyone.  The weather in July should be hot, but if you are familiar with the lake it is always cooler near the lake.  Bring a sweater just in case.  It may be in the 90's one minute and then a cold front will come in and it will be in the 60's.

We will be staying at the Radisson Hotel Chicago O'Hare.  There is a shuttle from the O'Hare airport to the hotel.  There is another airport in Chicago, I think it is called Midway.  The Radisson shuttle does not pick up from that airport.  It is about an hour away from the hotel.  Keep this in mind when making your travel plans.

You must call in your own reservation.  The rooms are $79 per night with arrival time Friday July 27th and departure is Monday July 30th.  You can get extra days for the same price, let them know you are from the USS Sheridan reunion when making your reservations.  Reservations must be received by July 6, 2007.  After this date reservations will be accepted on a space available basis only.  Check in time is 3:00 pm and check out time is 12:00 noon.

Feel free to contact me (Amy Helfenstein) or Tom Pellegrino with any questions.  Please RSVP to help with the plans for the tours.

Sincerely,

Amy Helfenstein
