Additionally, goodie orders have been placed. While we have done our best to guestimate how many will register late and on-site, goodie bags for late registrants will only be available while supplies last.

    - Bowling: Cancellations will be accepted and refunded through April 30, 2005.

    - Golf: Cancellations will be accepted and refunded through April 30, 2005. We will, however, allow stand-by's and will ask that they reimburse the player that they are replacing.

    4. AramcoBrat Documentary!

    Matthew Miller DH'91 will be producing a documentary inspired by Shannon McNulty's DH'91 paper "Growing Up in Saudi Arabia." The documentary will seek to uncover and describe "the world view" possessed by those Americans lucky enough to have lived in the Middle East. This documentary is both a social and political commentary as well as a description of life outside the US. Matt's crew will be interviewing Brats from all generations at the upcoming AramcoBrats reunion in Houston, so no matter who you are, be prepared. Once completed, the project seeks to be distributed to the History, Travel, or Discovery Channels, or as a news segment for special reports.

    For more information and requests for COPIES of photographs and video footage, please see: http://www.aramco-brats.com/classes/DH91/index.htm or contact Matt Miller directly at itsdoc2u@aol.com
