Hi Frank,
I hope this email finds you well.
I saw that you have an upcoming Reunion trip to Nashville!
If anyone from your reunion would like to visit the Country Music Hall of Fame – I would like to extend the offer that they would just need to show their conference badge and
they could get $3.00 off their ticket price. We do have complimentary wheel chairs available to use and plenty of places to sit and rest throughout the museum.
I hope that everyone has a safe trip and enjoys their time in Nashville.
Best,
