Hello Family!

Attached is the Reunion letter in the PDF file. If you have trouble with the PDF, I've also attached the Word file. With many versions of Word and Adobe, hopefully one of these will work for you. If not, let me know.

Please review the emails I have for your immediate family and let me know if I've left someone off. I've tried to get all updated addresses, etc. from FB, etc.

More information to come... Hope to see everyone at the reunion!!

Love to all,

Michele

Hi all ~ a couple people recently asked about dates for next year's reunion, so I'm sending a reminder to everyone so you can be sure to request your vacation days appropriately for next year!! :) Would love to see EVERYONE there.

Funny, I was just at church tonight helping with pictures for our pictorial directory and was talking to a mom of someone I went to school with (sorry grandmother!). And in talking about me planning a 20-year reunion for our grade school class we got on the topic of me planning our family reunion. She wanted to hear all about it and was so amazed at the length of time we'd done it and thought all of our traditions were so special. It reminded me of what a special family we have and how blessed we all are to have each other in our lives! Merry Christmas everyone!

The 40th annual
Holdaway Family Reunion
will be held at

Johnny Riley's band / Holy Spirit Festival

Hi All, If you want to spend a nice evening outside listening to a group of good High School Musicians, go to the Holy Spirit Festival this Thursday Night at 7:00. Johnny's group (Arisan Maru) will be playing from 7 to 11. They are good and it is fun. See you there. Ray.

The Arisan Maru was the name of the ship the Father Scecina died on in World War II. Look it up on the Internet. It is an interesting story. There is also an interesting book, The Sinking of the Arisan Maru, which is good reading. It was written by thee Son of one of the 8 survivors out of over 1700 American military.

FAMILY REUNION - update

Are you all getting super excited for the reunion?  Here is some more information for the big weekend:

 

 

FOOD

The food lists have been emailed out to the food coordinators (Martha Ann, Alice, Wanda, Karen, Kelly, Danny R., Danny M.).  They will help distribute the food responsibilities among their families. 

 

 

PAYMENT

Please mail your reunion payment to Denise if you haven't already: 102 Pensive Rd., Clarksville, IN 47129.  Cost is $25 per person over 18 & per each guest.  Subtract $5 per adult if mailing your payment by July 13th. 

 

 

CABINS

If you haven't emailed me yet to 'reserve' a cabin for your family, please do so.  This is just to ensure that we save enough cabins for 'family' cabins.  Cabins sleep 10 people.

 

 

ACTIVITIES

We will plan to play softball and volleyball (email me if you can bring a net, otherwise we'll look at buying one).  There will be music in the rec hall Saturday night.  We will also have crafts for the kids to do.

 

 

SIGN-UPS

Please be sure to sign-up for a weekend chore when you arrive.  If there are no lines left to sign up, please chose another task to do.  We will need more people to help with the various clean-ups at Versailles as we have double the space. 

 

Also - if you are on a clean-up crew, please make sure you stay until the entire team is done cleaning up.

 

Those staying in cabins are responsible for cleaning them.  This does not count as a 'chore' for the weekend. 

 

 

CHECK-OUT

When making your plans for the reunion, please factor in clean-up time Sunday as part of your plans.  This place is big and it will take the effort of everyone to help clean up.     

 

 

ADDITIONAL INFO

Remember to keep up-to-date with the latest information on the Holdaway website:  holdawayfamilyreunion.blogspot.com.  You should be able to find all information here, but if there is something not on there let me know and I will get it added.  Also be sure to check frequently for family updates and events.

     **If you would like to receive an update whenever the website is updated, just let me know.
