  • Green Flag at the Post Office!

    23 Apr 2013 7:48 PM | Gina Hess-Tanner

    Coming soon to the mailing address on file for you will be the AramcoBrats, Inc. Ballot for 2013. We will be electing Board Officers for the upcoming term and there are several proposed changes to the Bylaws that need to be decided by the Brats.

    There will be several options to choose from for casting your vote, either return the ballot by snail mail or grab one online at the AramcoBrat's website (http://www.aramco-brats.com/Resources/Documents/2013ballot.pdf ). We will also have a ballot box available until May 24 at Registration in Tucson.

     We are counting on YOU to steer the future of AramcoBrats, Inc.!

  • ATTENTION PROCRASTINATORS!

    If you have not yet registered for the reunion, please do so this weekend so you can get your choice of reunion shirts/sizes.  After this weekend we will run out of some of  the style and size options.  So do it NOW or you could end up with a small women's v-neck instead of the XXL polo you were wanting.  Picture yourself in that predicament!  Please go to The 14th Biennial Reunion Event Page, register and get yourself covered…  We don't want to see you in that way too small shirt!

  • Directory CD order form (NON-reunion attendees only!)

    17 Apr 2013 11:35 PM | Marie Littlejohn-Dunn (Administrator)

    We will be burning and distributing a limited number of 2013 directory CDs to those who order one.  There are 2 ways you can place an order:

    (1) If you register for the reunion, the form will ask you to indicate if you would like a directory CD. If you select "yes," you will receive your CD at the reunion.

    (2) if you are NOT attending the reunion, we have set up an order form for you to use.  Ordering is open from April 17th through midnight May 5th (CDT).

    The CD will contain a PDF file of the listings in our online database as of mid-April, sorted alphabetically and geographically, as well as a Memoriam section. Please only order if you think you will really use it.  The online (and up-to-date) database will always be there for you!

    Orders will be processed and mailed after the reunion.

    If you would like a hard copy, any copy place (e.g. Kinko's) or office supply store should be able to print one for you from the CD.

    Directories are made available to those who have paid AdBak.

  • La Paloma 2-Night Raffle: the Results Are In!

    08 Apr 2013 12:00 AM | Marie Littlejohn-Dunn (Administrator)

    Congratulations to Mary Schrader-Tedsen (DH 1963) for winning the certificate for 2 nights/breakfast at the La Paloma during the reunion.

    Thanks to all Brats who purchased the 74 raffle tickets! Because the raffle was for reunion attendees, the Board has voted to put all the proceeds toward some nibbles at the Friday night Opening Reception for everyone to enjoy! 

    The raffle drawing was managed by a Reunion Oversight Committee member and the Database Director. Each raffle ticket was assigned a number from 1 to 74. The actual ticket drawing was performed using a random number generator:  Our President, who was not privy to who owned which ticket, was sent a link to the random number-generating program along with the ticket number ranges to be used.  The random number generator returned a list of 5 unique ticket numbers, the first of which was our winner.  The other 4 tickets are backup (in the order pulled) winners in case the original winner is unable to attend the reunion. The President forwarded the ticket number list to the ROC member and Database Director who then matched ticket numbers to names in the spreadsheet.

    Mary was informed of her win via email and voice mail.  She responded - "Sorry I missed your call.  I was outside enjoying one of the few spring days we've had.  So I got your email and am excited that I won the raffle.  What a nice surprise.  I look forward to seeing you at the reunion."

    So you didn't win...  You still have the opportunity to win 1 comp night.  Go to http://www.aramco-brats.com/Reservations to learn how to sign up.

  • Time to Spring Clean the Directory

    07 Apr 2013 11:47 PM | Marie Littlejohn-Dunn (Administrator)

    In preparation for mailing ballots and publishing ABI directory CDs, we will be dumping the database after midnight (CDT), April 15th.  Your contact information in the directory CD will only be as up-to-date as you make it, so we need everyone to do their part!   



    • Log into the website and go to your profile to check your current information and privacy settings.  For a quick check of what appears in your online directory listing, click My directory profile just to the right of the Edit profile button.  If you need to make changes, click the Edit profile button, make the necessary edits, and save your changes.

     
      Example directory profile

    • Online and CD directories are made available only to those who have paid AdBak (Administrative Baksheesh) for the 2-year term. If you have not paid AdBak for this term but would like to access the online directory and order a CD, you can pay AdBak by selecting the Change membership level button under Membership details if your profile (right-hand side).
    • Information on ordering a directory CD will be coming soon!

    charge to bring the dogs, however we do require you to sign a pet waiver upon check in stating that you will pay for any damages that might be incurred or associated with your dogs.

    We do offer the use of complimentary dog beds and dog bowls as well.

    Please let us know if you do decide to bring your pets so that we can make the appropriate comments in your reservation."

    As in the past, we will have a wide variety of items - from brass camels and candlesticks, stuffed animals, bedu jewelry, decorative brass plates, coffee pots, hookahs and incense burners to cookbooks, books and manuals. Items are still coming in via donations from fellow brats (Have something you wish to donate?  Contact raffleauction@aramco-brats.com).  Among our goodies should be something which strikes your eye - something which you always regretted not having collected while you were there (perhaps your budget was nonexistent?).

    Take advantage of our discounted prices by purchasing your raffle tickets online between now and May 20th!  The online sales will close on that date, to give us time to tabulate the ticket purchases and have your tickets ready for you at registration. The more tickets you buy, the greater your chances of winning the raffle item(s) you have bid on.


    Online prices:
    • 3 tickets for $5, 
    • 8 tickets for $10
    • 25 tickets for $25 
    Onsite prices:
    • 2 tickets for $5
