91st TFS Weapons Loading 65 to '75
Hosted by: Mr. & Mrs. Larry Bourque
Date: August 21 - 23, 2009
Location: Greene, New York

Come join us at the eight annual reunion of RAF Bentwaters Weapons Loaders from the mid 60s to the mid 70s.

Buds,
The reunion for 2009 will be August 21, 22, & 23. Those attending year will be traveling to what is known as the Southern Tier in the State of New York. We are located in the mountains at the beginning of the Catskill Mountains, just southeast of wine country and the Finger Lakes. (For you motorheads, Watkins Glen is on one of the Finger Lakes.)

We hope to see all the "old" Buds and some new Buds this year.

Larry & Jeanne Bourque

Airports


There are loads of things to do & see through out the northeast region of the U.S. I have been pulling together some things and places from the region. If anyone has interests in anything on the list below, let me know and I will send brochures. I will also have a packet of brochures at the house that you are welcome to take with you. Some of these places can be seen on Saturday if there is a consensus, and some would have to be visited as part of a vacation while here. If the guys would like to get out for a few hours in the afternoon to see a local attraction we can do that as a group. If you reply with your interests I will compile them  and set up for a visit. If people do not want to see any of the local attraction they will be welcome to remain here. There is a swimming pool out back for swimming (if it survives the winter), and there is a pond below for paddle boating or fishing. There is also a horse stable across the street for horse back riding if anyone is interested. Up the street there is a camel and some Alpaca to visit if you would like.
