2008 Reunion Date October 3, 4 and 5

Reunion/Dues, etc. Notification Letter


Date:    February 8, 2008 (also emailed same date)
To:        All 26th Marines Association Members of record
From:   26th Marine Association Executive Committee “26th Marines Association”


Members– Preparation for the 26th Marine Association 2008 Atlanta Georgia Reunion are well under way. 

Our Atlantic City reunion was another super success.  We had good attendance and more strides were made in regards to leaving each year’s reunion with the next year’s reunion determined.  

Our 2008’s site was determined at 2007’s Annual Membership meeting to be Atlanta Georgia.  In addition three cities were selected for 2009’s reunion (San Diego, Las Vegas, and Seattle) to be voted on at our 2008 Membership meeting in Atlanta Georgia.


Soon, we will be posting information regarding the specific hotel, etc., our 2008 reunion will be held in Atlanta, Ga.  Please check our site www.26thMarines.com often for updates.

The purpose of this letter is to request Annual Membership dues.


The fees for this 2008’s reunion are as follows:

  1. Annual Membership Dues $40.00 per year.
  2. Registration fee will be $25.00 per person, members and each member’s guest.
  3. Banquet fee will be $40.00 per person, members and guest(s).

First, the annual membership fee is due to the Secretary by March 31, 2008.  Make checks payable to “26th Marines Association”.  All payments received after that date will incur a $10.00 per annum fee.

While the registration and banquet fees are not due until June 1, 2008, if possible, please also submit your registration fees and banquet fees for each person attending, including you, family and friends. 

But again, we will accept the Registration fee and Banquet fee or changes to them, as late as June 1, 2008

This notice has been mailed to those members during 2007 only.  Please feel free to copy this notice and give or send to anyone you know who may be interested in our Association. If you have any questions, feel free to contact any of us.


As some of you may have noticed, 2007 Reunion Photos have not been posted.  The website storing our previous reunion photos has been discontinued and an alternative site or method of posting reunion photos is being examined.  Once a final decision has been made, it will be posted on our website
www.26thMarines.com under Photos or Reunion Photos.  Check the website often for changes.
