· The entire Hangar Hotel is in a 1940’s WWII theme and décor. Way cool.
- · There may be sufficient rooms in the Hangar Hotel (50 Rooms) for all Headhunters who attend. There are several other hotels within a few miles, if necessary)
- · The first class Convention Center is 100’ away from the hotel
- · The Convention Center has a beautiful ballroom with bar, as well as an even larger aviation theme Convention Center floor for meetings, merchandise sales, etc.
- · The Hangar Hotel has a classy “Officer’s Club” with a WWII theme & full bar.
- · The Hangar Hotel will arrange catering for any meal the HH group should want. This would include breakfasts (probably burritos) in the convention center, and a final evening classy dinner in the ballroom.
- There is an old fashioned diner attached to the Convention Center. Lots of seating on stools and booths. Great sandwiches and shakes. A super option for lunches.
- · The Hangar Hotel sits right on the Gillespie County general aviation airport. The aircraft tie-downs are within 100’ of the hotel. HH and guests can fly private aircraft to the event. A fuel discount can be arranged.
- · I know this is not a Birddog love fest event, but I am very confident we can attract 2 or 3 Bird Dogs to our HH event. How many spouses have actually seen a Bird Dog up close? How many spouses might be interested in a flight in the back seat of a Bird Dog? How many HH might love a nostalgia flight in a Bird Dog? Such flights can be arranged. For sure, I will have “Saigon Tea” at the event if we hold the reunion at Hangar Hotel. Our Bird Dog is in 219th colors, and I will fly as many HH and/or spouses as I can. No charge. Just share in fuel cost.
- · There is an outside Tiki Bar next door to the hotel where event attendees can bring coolers with beer, soft drinks, as well as spirits to that bar.
- · I can check with Hangar Hotel to see if there is a room inside the hotel that can be used as a hospitality room.
- · There are a couple of real nice golf courses near the Hangar Hotel.
- · Fredericksberg is a delightful small town with several German restaurants on the main street. Other restaurants (Mexican, steak house, sandwich shops) as well. All within 2 or 3 blocks from each other.
- · Some decent shopping on the main street in Fredericksberg.
- · There are 2 or 3 WORLD CLASS wineries within 5 miles from downtown Fredericksberg. The one the IBDA went to was spectacular! Wine, beer, spirits, and a simple 2 choice meal (chicken or beef) for large groups. Seating easy for 200+ people, and great service by the staff. Affordable as well.
- · The NIMETZ Museum (Maybe Museum Of The Pacific now) is on the main street in Fredericksberg. Absolutely AWESOME museum. One of the best I have ever visited.
- · Several major airlines fly into both Austin and San Antonio. Austin is maybe a 1.5 hour drive to Fredericksberg, and San Antonio is maybe 1.2 hour drive. So easy.
