Evening Sqn/Wing Functions |
Our first event is the “Meet & Greet” reception in the Lakeside on Thursday (9th) from 1500 – 1800 hrs.
The morning of Friday (10th) has been set aside for all those Golfers (Good, Bad & Indifferent) Especially for those who wouldn’t come to the Reunion if they couldn’t play and compete for our snazzy prizes. Hopefully, they’ll be too tired by suppertime to cause any problems, as we assemble for Cocktails at 1800 hrs and for our SPAADS gala Banquet & Dance on Friday evening. (Note this major change from past reunions!)
Saturday morning ( 11th ) at 0930 we will depart in reserved busses to a special selection of renowned Naramata Bench vineyards. This is a perfect time of year to enjoy a Wine Tour. It's a time to sample the fruit of the vine and entice the taste buds. The tour will end back at the Lakeside Resort by 1230 where a Grand Lunch will be awaiting us in the beautiful outside west garden of the Lakeside Resort. Although too early to go firm yet we intend to stage a one hour Mini - Airshow at 1400 for SPAADS at the Lakeside Resort waterfront. The evening is devoted to Wing/Squadron Functions. Thursday, as well as Saturday, is open for these very special events. (Note this is a major change from past reunions).
Hopefully, all of you will be rushing away early on Sunday (12th) to extend your BC visit, or to catch an Alaskan Cruise or ride a Rocky Mountaineer train. But we hope you will all take the opportunity to attend our Farewell Brunch at the Lakeside (from 0800 –1100 hrs), and say “goodbye” to old friends, before you fly away!
