Our last family gathering was under very sad circumstances and since a few of us cousins have gotten
together and decided it was time to have a family reunion so our families could see each other and our
children could get to know each other.
We realize this is a VERY large undertaking, however we feel that FAMILY is more important and if we
can all work together to preserve our heritage, this will work! :o) If you are available and willing to help,
we'd love that help.
Details:
1st – It’s a SURPRISE!
We would like this to be a surprise to the siblings - Ned, Carol, Thelma, LaVon, Marie...etc. Between us
I think we can keep them out of the loop and when the time comes we can just let them know we'd like to
do an activity with them and invite them to come to a family gathering.
2nd – Location:
We will be holding our family reunion at the beautiful Bear Lake Resort area.
3rd - Date:
Father’s Day Weekend, June 17th - 20th, 2011.
4th - Communication
We have created this blog as a means of communication. We hope this will help keep the secret from the
siblings. :o) You may also speak to your respective committee members at any time as well.
We know this is going to be one of the biggest and best events our family has EVER had and we're very
excited! We would like to get more information from each of you to ensure the best accommodations and
event for everyone. Please take a few moments to respond to the questions below.

We appreciate your willingness to help and hope you will be available to attend! If not, we hope you will
