NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS: BOX 1240 ? VIENNA, VIRGINIA 22180 ? [phone]
TO THE 1978 GUESTS OF HONOR
WAYNE R. REYNOLDS
Coordinator, Golden Plate Invitations
At early convenience, please fill in Return Form #2 and mail it to us in the enclosed
envelope.. .so that we can make Banquet reservations/tickets/badges for your guests.
Those honorees arriving by private jet at the Owensboro terminal (Davis County Airport)
will be met by the Greeting Committee, and escorted to the Executive Inn Rivermont,
where we are pre-registering all guests of honor.
Honorees who will travel on Academy-provided flights will be contacted soon regarding
our arrangements in that respect.
After getting settled into your complimentary room at the Executive Inn Rivermont, you
should visit our weekend headquarters at the hotel... in Room 216...to pick-up your
weekend badge(s) and Banquet ticket(s).
The spouse.of each guest of honor may attend any or all of the weekend events, as a
complimentary guest of the Academy. On the Banquet night, Saturday, June 24, each
guest of honor and spouse is invited to the reception for all head-table guests which will
open at 6p.m. At exactly 6:40p.m., all spouses will be escorted from the reception
in the Kentucky Room (see weekend schedule) to their Banquet seats (near the head-table)
as the guests of honor remain for the spotlight introduction to their places of honor.
Immediately after the Banquet, as indicated in the weekend schedule, there will be
another reception in the Kentucky Room.. .this time for all head-table guests and spouses.
Upon presentation of the Golden Plate Award (following the narrator's reading of the
introductory remarks in italics at the top of his page in the Banquet yearbook), each
honoree will have an opportunity at the microphone for a "thank you"...or, ideally,
a brief expression of his thought or emotion of that moment. (Our tiny warning lamps...
green, yellow, and red...will guide you from running much beyond the suggested max.
time at the Banquet, two minutes or so.)
Either a summer dinner jacket or black tuxedo will be appropriate at the black-tie
Banquet of the Golden Fl-ate. (We can arrange your complimentary tux at Owensboro,
if you prefer.) Ladies may wear either a long or short gown.
A non-profit, tax-exempt organization, dedicated to the Inspiration of Y uth--to raise their sights high;
to excel in their endeavors--through the dramatic annual salute...at the Banquet of the Golden Plate...
to Captains of Achievement from America's great walks of life and honor students from across the nation.
