The beginnings of our reunion outline
Everyone arrives Friday evening and gets settled in. We will have a hot meal ready for everyone when they arrive. We are thinking of either stews or chili provided by family members and pre-cooked, served with buns. We will bring pies for deserts. At this time we will hand out reunion info and any other info pertinent to the event.
As it stays light late, people can use this time to explore, go out canoeing or fishing, relax around the campfire and visit, or have a game of cards in their cabin.
SATURDAY (All foods today covered by reunion fee)
BREAKFAST
We’ll begin the day with a Grand Slam Breakfast.
Scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon and hash browns.??? We’ll also have those little boxes of cereal, milk and OJ. After all is cleaned up, we’ll begin our day.
:LUNCH
Roast Beef on buns, Cookies or squares
SUPPER
Hamburgers and hot dogs
Potato & Macaroni Salads or baked Pototoes
Deserts
Home-made pies-donated by family members
Watermelon/….?
Smores around campfire for desert
Sunday Breakfast & lunch covered in reunion fee- everyone buys their own supper in Barkerville
Breakfast
Pancakes & sausages or bacon????? We’ll need extension cords to plug in all our grills. Still working on this idea.
LUNCH
We will have buns and cold cuts/ mini bags of chips, & cookies for people to pack a lunch to take to Barkerville. Everyone can purchase their own supper in Barkerville.
I am awaiting a reply from Barkerville for group rates, activities and meals.
(Large eating tent rental $ covered by reunion fees) In case of rain we do need a covered area. I’m looking for a sale on canopies. If anyone has one they can loan us for the reunion, please let us know.
+++ We can reserve canoes/kayaks, but you will have to pay for these individually. The reunion fee would be too high to include boat rentals.
Stay tuned for our next post. We are hoping to nail down a reunion fee cost and are trying to economize as much as possible. We are putting a bit aside each month so we can pay our share without “breaking the bank.”
Activities In The Planning. Everyone does not have to be involved in the planned activities. The goal is for us to have fun doing things together as a family and getting to know each other better. We need lots of photographers snapping shots thru’out the reunion for our Shaw Family Reunion 2010 keepsake Storybook and Shaw Reunion 2010 DVD
Small Children: We will allow lots of free time, but we will also plan lots of fun activities. We will need lots of help running these games & activities.
