The HMS Courageous Society 2010 Reunion will be held at

 The Holiday Inn Hotel, Plymouth Hoe, Plymouth Devon,

over the weekend of

Friday 5th, Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th of March 2010

 

March 7th 2010 is the 40th anniversary of the launch of HMS Courageous in 1970. It is intended to hold the reunion in Plymouth to allow a function to take place alongside Courageous on Sunday 7th March.

hotelroomThe reunion is being organised by Chas Cooke who has already reserved the hotel for the dates shown above. It is hoped that, this being the 40th anniversary of the launch of Courageous, we can make this the biggest and best attended reunion yet. We are planning the event this far in advance to ensure that you have the opportunity to book the time off, notify the wife, save your pennies and book a place with us for that weekend. It would be good if we could fill the hotel which has 211 rooms available, 106 double or twin and 105 single. I have already begun negotiations over price and this will be announced very soon.

AFTER THE LATEST ROUND OF NEGOTIATIONS THE HOTEL HAVE AGREED TO REDUCE THE COST TO THOSE SHOWN IN RED BELOW.

DO YOU PLAY GOLF?

WOULD YOU LIKE A GOLF TOURNAMENT TO BE PART OF THE 2010 REUNION?

Ken Collins has suggested that there are enough golfers to have a Society Golf Tournament on the Friday or Saturday afternoon at the 2010 reunion. There are certainly plenty of golfers among the members and there are ample golf clubs within easy reach of the hotel so what do you think? Ken will soon be starting a thread in the Golf Area of the Society Forum so why not pop along and air your views there?
