Decide who will be invited to the reunion-do you want all associated units or just the guys on your ship. Do you want guys who served on the same assignment at different times? Estimate how many will attend.

Decide how long you need to pre-announce the invitations. Do you want to include the event in newsletters or mail invites. Be ready to do a little searching for fellows who have moved or otherwise.

Decide what will happen at your event. Ship-to-Shore.net can help you with commemorative shirts for attendees or organizers. Perhaps you want to give everyone a momento with the ships’ hull name and number on it, or a personalized item with your unit’s name on it like hats or pens or other gift items. Perhaps you want to raise money for the event by promoting these types of items for sale in advance of the event.

Is there a theme to your event? Is it the 25th Anniversary of the launching of your ship and you want a silver vase with an image of the ship to sit on each table? Or were you all stationed in Hawaii and you want palm tree statues with plaques for awards? When you know your theme, call us and we’ll help you figure out how to make the most of it with commemorative military memorabilia.
