Regimental Rendezvous 2018 – Camp Grayling

Regimental Rendezvous – Camp Grayling

The Fourth Annual Regimental Rendezvous will be held at Camp Grayling on 7-9 September 2018. 

This is intended to be a “guys” weekend.  If members are welcome to bring a wife or significant other; however, there will be no special activities or arrangements made for them. This event is open to members of the 425th Regimental Association and their guest only. If you are not a member or your membership has expired, you must join or renew your membership to attend.

The cost for the weekend is $125 per person to underwrite the cost of the building, range, and meals.  We have made arrangements for quarters in Building 656Q in the old “Tent City (600 area)” for Friday and Saturday night.  These rooms will be first come, first served.  Once all rooms have been assigned you will need to find lodging somewhere else in Grayling.  These rooms have two twin-sized beds and private bathroom.  Quarters and all meals are included in the registration fee.
