HOW
TO REGISTER for the REUNION if you have not already done so:
The registration form was
mailed in mid-July to everyone for whom we have addresses. If you didn't
receive one or misplaced it, well now it's too late to mail the forms (link
below) unless you live in El Paso, but for those flying in, you can download,
fill out and turn in when you register Friday or Saturday night at the door.
Or just show up with money, honey, and you'll be welcome without the registration forms.

OPEN the
REGISTRATION FORM link below and PRINT, fill out
and take the forms to
Reunion with you, or mail if you can get them in on time.

Kit Carson, and other historical characters. Enjoy lunch on your own
