August 12, 2022 – Based on responses to the surveys, we have chosen Rio Cibolo Ranch. See this link –> 2023 Reunion – Status Update
Based on the “Farewell Reunion” Banquet Survey results, Rio Cibolo Ranch (1) and Pat O’Brien’s (2) were the most popular choices.
After some additional investigation, we’ve determined per person costs would be:
- Rio Cibolo Ranch – $100 per person (includes coach transportation to / from hotel, food, band & entertainment)
- Pat O’Brien’s – $65 to $70 per person (includes food & band – a 10 minute / 0.5 mile walk from hotel)
While Rio Cibolo Ranch was the first survey choice, there is concern that some members may be unwilling to spend $100 per person.
To help you make your decision, the tentative reunion schedule is as follows:
Tuesday – 5/16
- Registration / welcome
- Renew old friendships & make new ones
- 5:30 to 7:30pm – evening Embassy Suites reception
Wednesday – 5/17
- Continue renewing old friendships & making new ones
- Do some San Antonio sight seeing
- 4:00 to 5:00pm – business meeting at the hotel
- 5:30 to 7:30pm – evening Embassy Suites reception
Thursday – 5/18
- Continue renewing old friendships & making new ones
- Do some San Antonio sight seeing
- 5:30 to ?pm – reunion banquet (location TBD)
So… which venue do we choose for the “banquet”? Please let us know ASAP as we have to reserve the vendor now to ensure their availability.
Thanks for your help!

James Dutcher | 08-11-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | Looks like greater value. Rio Cibolo is rated significantly higher than O'Brien's. More expensive does not always equal better, nor does less expensive equal value for th3e money spent. |

MIKE ALEXANDER | 08-17-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | Would prefer O'Briens, but I am not able to ewalk that far. By the time I would pay for a cab, both ways, it would be more than Rio's. So I would prefer to not have to hobble and crawl down a sidewalk. Mike |
Mike Brashear | 08-09-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | |
Mr. Franklin Carl Weinkauf | 08-06-2022 | Pat O'Brien's | I could go for either venue but do understand that $100 per person might be a bit pricy for some individuals. |
Norm Trudell | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | Either is good with me. I've heard the Ranch experience years ago was very good so I went with it. |
Norman Tramba | 08-06-2022 | Pat O'Brien's | Do we have any tours, like museums or military facilities on a tentative schedule? |
Randy Doi | 08-06-2022 | Pat O'Brien's | |
Richard Johnson | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | |
Robbie Robertson | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | Agree!! If we want New Orleans stile let’s go to New Orleans. We’re going to Texas let’s go Texas!!! |
Robert Bolton | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | |
Robert W KUTULIS | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | WE had a lot of fun there before and the facilities lend itself to more activities and leisure. The cost does not seem that prohibitive. |
Ron Lyscik | 08-06-2022 | Pat O'Brien's | |
Russ Reston | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | |
Tony Valovich | 08-06-2022 | Rio Cibolo Ranch | Pat O'briens is New Orleans style and we are in Texas. Doesn't make sense for final reunion. |
