We have been having family reunions for over 10 years(we didn't have one in 2003).
Our family is a 'small' one..(about 50 total) and most live with-in 50 - 60 miles, so we don't have to worry about hotel/motel accomadations.
Members that live out of state have RV's and park at nearby facilities..or stay with relatives close by.
We have the usual..pitch-in..games..etc..in a rented pavilion located in a local city park.
We also have an auction..wrapped gifts..for adults & kids..and anyone..to help pay for.rental and buy meat.. decorations..condiments..drinks..ice..plates/napkins & utensils.
I also make Reunion Booklets..families send me letters (20 copies each) about 2 months before..during the year I get email (poems, stories, medical reports, weddings, any activities) that I also include. Some years I make memory pages for deceased members.
We started a Recipe Book a few years back..so I request new recipes every year.
What more can we do?
Suggestions welcomed !
Thank you !

At my faily reunuins we always have an entertainment night where people who can sing or play instraments will play for the rest of the family. The children will do small skits or some will even play or sing for their older family memebers it's all really fun.

Have you done the t-shirt thing? Or why not everyone go on a cruise since it's a small group.
