Reservations 512-451-5757, Group code, is MBA. POC: Baby Huey, medevac2@15thmedbnassociation.org or call or text 830-456-5580. Austin is a "happin' town" with lots to do in your free time.

The host hotel is a mid-town hotel providing our rooms, hospitality room, and banquet hall in the same facility. The reunion rate is $129/room night, complimentary breakfast in the morning, free parking, and all the usual amenities. We will have a Texas barbeque (of course) dinner for all y’all on Saturday evening, followed by our annual auction. We don’t have annual dues, so please plan on bringing something to be auctioned off that evening.

Though the hotel doesn't allow pets, there are a number of boarding facilities within a couple of miles. Austin Canine Central is less that a mile away from the hotel.

Lone starThere will be an open pairs challenge bean bag throwing competition Friday afternoon. The winners will receive a special prize brought all the way from Omaha, NE.

You will have a chance (at an additional cost of $40/person) to join us on an evening river cruise and an all-you-want-to-eat Mexican buffet on the boat. The highlight of the river cruise is watching 1.5 million bats depart their roost from under the South Congress Bridge. If you ain't be seen a bat emergence, it's quite a site to watch.

Transportation Options From Airport to Hotel

Take an uber

For those planning on flying, there is no shuttle from the airport to the host hotel, so now is the time to download the Uber app and take a short test drive before arriving at the airport. Uber's rate is about $18, with a customary tip is 10-20%.

Rent a car

If you're planning on renting a car, the 15th Med Bn Assn has an account with National that is supposed to save you 15%. Try this link: https://tinyurl.com/3v93uehs . If you run into trouble, let Baby Huey know.

A taxi from the airport to the hotel is about $25, plus a tip if desired.
