    The minutes from the Reunion Board meeting and the 19th Biennial Town Hall Meeting held at the Woodlands Resort on June 10th can be found here.  You can also, ALWAYS, find ALL the ABI financials, meeting minutes, and FMs (Formal Meetings) there.   The Bylaws are located here. We encourage any Brat with questions or concerns to contact us at board@aramco-brats.com.    

    We have signed an Engagement Letter with Reginald Dewayne Sherman, CPA (A. L. Bean & Company - Consulting, Tax & Accounting). He has agreed to perform reviews of the expense side of the ABI’s income statements from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2022 .  We have asked for the review of the 2012 - 2022 terms' expenses to be completed in 3-months and will provide updates as we receive them.  

    Keep an eye out for a reunion survey - whether you attended or not, we want to hear from you!  Weren't able to attend? Let us know what held you back!  Hung out in the Oasis in the Pines?  Let us know what a great time you had! 

    We're ALREADY thinking about the 2025 20th Biennial Reunion and have a feeling it'll be YUGE!  Want to Chair THE 20TH REUNION??  Put your mark on BratHistory by planning the "Roaring 20th"! (If you don't like the sound of that, Chair the committee and come up with the theme!) You don't have to live in the host city to Chair the event!  Contact board@aramco-brats.com.

    Have a great summer!

    As some of you are aware, our room block at the reunion hotel is very full, but cancellations are trickling in. If you would like to be on a standby list for rooms at The Woodlands Resort, please sign up for the The Woodlands Resort Standby List. As rooms become available at The Woodlands Resort, we will offer them to reunion registrants in the order in which they have signed up for the standby list.


    As there are no guarantees we can accommodate everyone on the standby list, we recommend you make alternative arrangements for your stay which can be canceled if/when a room becomes available at The Woodlands Resort. We have a group rate at the Drury Inn & Suites The Woodlands, or book with another nearby hotel..
