Hi Leisa - I would like to go to the meet and greet as well. I just made my flight arrangements tonight and we are also staying at the Navy Lodge. I am sharing a room with my ex - but we get along great and just really want to be there for our son so all is good. I'm sure he will want to go to the meet and greet as well. If you want to give me all the details I will talk to him about it. Hope to talk again soon!

Hi AndrewsMom! I think all you need to do is call Flannigans and tell them how many will be coming in your party. We are staying at the navel lodge and i will be coming with my husband, my ex and his wife are coming also, but they wont be staying in the same room as us LMAO...lol and my son's older and only brother will be with us also. I look forward to meeting as many Moms as I can. I think we should have some kind of nametags to put on so we will know who we are guess we could use our user name for name tags but open for suggestions.

I am hoping to attend on the 27th at Flanagans. I am also banking on a graduation date of Sept 28th. We get in at 6:40 and with renting a car we are hoping to get to Flanagans before the end of the meet and greet. There would be 3 of us.
