MandysMom: If your sailor will be returning to RTC that night at 8 or 9, sounds like you are good with your reservations. Remember, do not wait until the last minute to go to RTC....there will be a line of cars to get sailors back and they could be late. Not sure how far your restaurant is from RTC?

What are you all planning to get for you new Sailor for Graduation...need suggestions! Mandysmom, I don't have lunch or dinner arrangements yet as we will be close to the Gurnee mills mall and I was hoping we would be able to grab something there, that way my son could have his choice as to what he wanted to eat...plus I think we have 25 people traveling in to see him and It was just too hard to find a place that would accommodate so many. Plan to hang at the hotel, relax and enjoy the company!

Gabi, Your Sailor should have plenty of time to talk today!
Mandysmom, Nope 6:30 not too early, You will have a wait to get into the drill hall, but early arrival is always good.
