The 2024 USS Simon Lake Reunion will be held in North Wildwood, NJ at the Matador Oceanfront Resort, 16th Ave and The Beach. It will begin with check-in at 4:00 PM on Sunday, September 15 and end on Thursday morning, September 19. Attendees must both reserve a room directly with the hotel and register for the reunion with the USS Simon Lake Association.

The hotel rate is $95 per night plus tax for our group. When you book, they will charge half of the stay as a deposit. Deposits are refundable if you cancel in advance. No shows will not be refunded. You must tell them you are attending the USS Simon Lake Reunion. You must reserve the room and register for the reunion by August 15. If you reserve a room but fail to register for the reunion with the USS Simon Lake Association by that date, your reservation will be cancelled, and your deposit will be refunded less a processing fee.

If the former crew member has not paid 2024 association dues, you should add the $15 dues to the registration fee. The registration fee is $140 per person and includes:
*Welcome reception on Sunday with food and drink.
*Breakfast Monday at the hospitality room with coffee, tea, juice, bagels, and Danish.
