This first gathering, from June 13-15, 2025, will be in New Orleans, at the Hilton Higgins Hotel, across the street from the National WWII Museum. All are welcome.

The special room rate is $179 per night plus tax. 

There will be no registration cost. The only expenses you will have are your room, transportation, and your food and drink while in New Orleans.

We will have a hospitality room with snacks and beverages. And we will certainly take time to honor the USS Salt Lake City CA-25, and all those who served on her.

While we're together in New Orleans, we can also discuss future gatherings, where and when they should be, and who might be able to lead them.

The reservation link, which is specific to our group, defaults to a check-in date of Friday, June 13, and a check-out date of Monday, June 16. You can change those dates by selecting the "edit stay" option. There is, though, a two-night minimum. That is a standard policy of the hotel on summer weekends.

To make reservations by phone, call the Higgins Hotel toll free reservations line at 833-357-1172. Our group name is Salt Lake City. Our group code is 908.

The deadline for reserving rooms is May 10.
