Anyone know if they have started or will be starting the Hi Moms dinner again the night before graduation at OCS? looking to book flights and wondering if I should plan to get there in time for it.

@southMSDad, 
Aloha!
I do not know of a specific group, but I do know there are many Facebook groups for the OCS classes. You are welcome to join an earlier class to gain information, then search for your specific class by class number to join. ex:  "

Navy OCS class 02-20 friends & family"

Best wishes to your candidate and remember to write letters every day on INDOC and if they get rolled to "H CLASS"! Mail call is the highlight of every evening. 
Regards,

Joseph -- When my son went (two years ago) he arranged his own flights and got reimbursed later.  But as I recall he was reimbursed a standard rate (from his home base to Newport) irrespective of his actual spend.  I believe he was able to find out that amount ahead of time by talking to his recruiting office.  These things change though so I hope I have not given you outdated info.

Hello everyone! A dad posed this question tonight, and if anyone can give us any insight, we would appreciate it.

"My son will be attending OCS. Does he arrange his own flight to Newport, and get reimbursed?"

Navy Lodge North Island is fantastic.  One the beach and across the street from the runway (not noisy IRRC).  Should be very reasonable.  Your son should be able to book you a room.  I just looked at their website-- $131 plus tax.

My son recently graduated from OCS Newport RI.  He's now in San Diego advanced training.  I'm planning on going out there to see him.  Any ideas about a decent hotel/motel.  Clean/budget priced.  Located near downtown.  Thanks Peter ADAM
