We'd love to see you down in Albuquerque for our 20th Anniversary Reunion Celebration!
We're looking forward to greeting old friends and new (click here to see the participation list online)! The Albuquerque Reunion promises to be a special event amidst a historical background as rich and long as any in our country, in a region enhanced by a kaleidoscope of ethnic cultures and diverse scenic splendors!
Take a glance at some of the Reunion activities: 
Acoma Sky City Pueblo is a native community perched high atop a mesa in an area of dramatic high-desert landscapes west of Albuquerque. The pueblo has more than 250 dwellings (none of which are endowed with electricity, sewer, or running water), and a story that dates back to AD 1150, making it the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in North America.
Take a trip on Sandia Peak Tram, the world's longest aerial tramway, above deep canyons and breathtaking terrain for a distance of 2.7 miles. The journey takes you to the crest of the Sandia Mountains for amazing views at over 10,000 feet above sea level, a gain of over 5,000 feet.
The Jemez Mountain Trail is a scenic drive that takes us past surprising geological formations, ancient Indian ruins, an Indian pueblo, and remainders of the area's logging, mining, and ranching heritage. We'll visit Jemez State Monument, the combined ruins of an ancient pueblo of the Jemez people known as Giusewa and a 17th century Spanish mission called San Jose de los Jemez.
Reunion Extras!
We've got some fantastic dinners planned with Reunion fun galore, as well as a special evening at El Pinto Restaurant. Housed in high adobe walls and set amidst a grove of cottonwood trees, the El Pinto exemplifies Southwestern warmth and hospitality. Throughout the evening, we'll be serenaded by a Latin trio performing the ballads of Mexico and Latin America while we enjoy a Southwestern buffet dinner. Take a stroll among the splashing fountains and gardens and watch local artisans demonstrate their trades. The highlight of the evening will no doubt be the flamenco dance troupe, with their passionate and colorful style in the old Spanish tradition.
Walked Enough Already? And if you've already walked enough, we've got a bus full of folks who would like to share in the fun and camaraderie but are no longer as enthusiastic about the walking element! Give Debbie a call at 800.779.0353 if you have any questions!
Let us know by September 1st if you'll be joining us in Albuquerque!
