Welcome to The DEC Connection!
The DEC Connection is an association dedicated
to preserving the unique culture of Digital Equipment Corporation by
reuniting the Digital family through face-to-face events, intra-personal and

Reunions & Events |

- Sat. April 7, 2018 for semi-annual
Phoenix AZ luncheon at Santisi Brothers
- Thurs. April 26, 2018 for the 16th
Annual CXO Reunion in Colorado Springs
- The date of our next
Maynard Mill get-together has been changed (from Friday May 18) to
Sunday, May 20, 2018 from 2 to 5 PM at the
Battle Road Brew House behind the pond on Sudbury St.
We apologize for any inconvenience but hope you'll be able to join
us on Sunday afternoon.
We are arranging for Mini-Reunions: organize a group of at least 8
and reserve one or more tables by emailing us at info@decconnection.org
with your name(s) and organization.
DEC Connection will provide some yummy appetizers (beef and brisket
sliders, nacho bar, wings platter, smoked veggie crudites), and a
DEC Connection logo umbrella as a gift to our paid-up members. All
drinks and additional food are the $ responsibility of the
individual.
To help cover our minimum financial obligation to the Pub, we are
selling advance tickets only for this event. $5 for paid-up members,
$6 for non-members or guests. **Please purchase your ticket by Wed.,
April 25th** so we can get an accurate count of attendees ahead of
the event for ordering gifts. We do have a firm limit on the number
we can accommodate in our private area so sign up ASAP so you don't
get closed out. If we don't fill up by April 25 we can take
additional registrations until May 11th. No walk-ins or paying at
the door.
HERE IS THE LINK to buy your
ticket.

if you aren't a paid-up member.
Of course, those who wish can stay for dinner to enjoy an extended
reunion with Digital friends. Hope to see you at the Battle Road
Brew House (GPS: 20 Sudbury Street, Maynard) on Sunday 20 May!
