Blackhorse Family Reunion 2022!
The 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment’s Blackhorse Association will hold its annual Blackhorse Family Reunion in Las Vegas, Nevada June 9–12, 2022. Our reunion—held in Las Vegas to be close to the active Regiment—is open to all past and present troopers who served with the Regiment; their families; anyone who served in the Regimental Community or any of the separate units that supported the Regiment; and friends of the association.
We will be staying at The Orleans hotel. Rooms have been set aside for reunion attendees. Rates for each night for each level of rooms are provided below:
Reservations must be made by May 2, 2022. You can book your rooms for the 2022 reunion by using group code ABA2C05 on the Orleans reservation website (https://www.orleanscasino.com/groups) or calling toll free at 800-675-3267.
To ensure there is no confusion, please check your calendars and make certain to book the night you plan on arriving and the date you plan on leaving. If you fail to show on Tuesday, for example, and you booked your room for Tuesday but your plane doesn’t arrive until Wednesday, you risk having your entire reservation cancelled as a no show. Please doublecheck your dates and book in advance.
