jrunner...the benefits of being from Dundee..lol!
Comment by Jimbo on October 6, 2011 at 4:01pm

This is straight from the horse's mouth:

Four seats are guaranteed per recruit; however, children 12 years old and younger do not count against the four-guest maximum. The graduating recruit is responsible for identifying those individuals to be placed on the access list. Please coordinate with your recruit via letters regarding who will be on the access list. No additions, deletions or changes will be made to the access list the week of graduation. The four guests on the access list will be admitted into the ceremonial drill hall first. Additional guests not on the access list will have to wait inside the Visitor Center until after the start of the ceremony at which time they will be allowed into the ceremonial hall if additional seating is available as space permits. No additional seating can be guaranteed.  PLEASE DO NOT CALL FOR ADDITIONAL SEATS.  All visitors must have valid photo identification. This requirement includes children (school ID, Social Security card or copy of birth certificate). Please be aware that security may deny base admission to guests NOT on the access list if they are not accompanied by a guest who is on the access list.

I GOT 3 LETTERS !!!!!  I GOT 3 LETTERS !!!!  I GOT 3 LETTERS !!!!!  Now I have to wait until I get home from work.......I CAN'T STAND THIS WAITING.  IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY.

 

jrunner - yes, they only get 4 passes but you can bring other guests but there's no guarantee they'll get in.  They wait on a separate line.  Another mom told me that she had extra guests and they got in no problem and they had more divisions graduating than we do.  So you should okay.

Comment by Lizzie's Mom Ship 03/Div 367 on October 6, 2011 at 3:01pm
jrunner163......I had heard the same thing as well, but that it wasn't any guarantee.  I had also heard once about some SR's giving their spaces to other SR's as their family wasn't coming.  Hopefully a veteran mom can jump in here on this.
Comment by jrunner163 on October 6, 2011 at 2:54pm
I have a weird question.  Does anyone have extra passes for PIR on 11/10? My daughter has a mom, dad, step mom, step dad and two siblings that all want to go to PIR.  I know they are limited to 4 passes per SR.  Or any other suggestion, her Dad mentioned that he heard you can sometimes bring additional people to PIR and they get seated after the ticketed guest are seated?  Anyone else hear of this? Any advice would be more than welcome!  Thank you.

Got a letter from my SR in 952 today. He sounded good. Told us not to worry, we'll see him soon. Also said the RDCs are "bada$$" (meant as a compliment). It was short and upbeat.
