Tentative Schedule for the Family Reunion

All items in blue are put together by the Marriott resort. If you are not staying at the Mountain side lodge I called the concierge and she said that you could still come and do the activities at the Mountainside because you are with our family reunion group.

This schedule is mainly made for those people who requested a schedule or for those who want to know what is going on throughout the week. Please feel free to do whatever you want to while you are here whenever you want. But one thing that is for certain is that plans will change on this schedule. It is your vacation----reunion. Please print off your copy of this before you come to the reunion. Also, if those that aren't in the dinner group would like to come and visit after dinner you are welcome to do so. Thank you everyone who has helped in assisting this. I really appreciate you so very much!

Need help for the reunion to go smoothly!!!!

Hi Everyone~

I am in need of some help with the reunion and so I 'm letting you know some of the areas I need help in. Please let me know if you can help with any of these areas by emailing or calling me back ASAP.

Going to the grocery store on Tuesday the 29th for food (money will be provided before the party)
Helping our group pick out the photos (three people would be great)
Setting up tables at the church on Tuesday the 29th (at least 2 people) (teenagers are also accepted)
Cleaning up after the birthday party ( at least 4 people)
Video taping the birthday party (1 person and not the whole party)
Video taping throughout the reunion (at least 2 different people) Also these people need to be willing to share their video tapes with the group if others are interested in receiving one for a small cost. If no one is willing to do this I will take what I can get.
Game Expert for the games each night (someone to make sure that we have enough games each night. This can also be rotated by more than one person, but I need someone).
Photographers to take pictures of people throughout the week ( 2 would be ideal and of course be willing to share with others after the reunion).
Help with the barbecue on Saturday, Aug. 2nd. (3 people)

I am sure that there will be more things that I will need help with too, but for now this is what I have. For the dinner group I have five families that are eating together for five night. If anyone else wanted to participate please let me know by 7-23 at the latest. Thank you very much.

Please as always continue to check the blogspot as that is where the info is. http://cami-and-matt.blogspot.com and also has maps etc.

Please email me back after you have read this email so I know you have read it and have received it even if you are not willing to help. Thank you so very much.

I am getting excited~

Dinner arrangements-- let us know if you want to join in

As of right now we have three families that are going to be eating dinner together on the nights of Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. If any family would like to join us we would be happy to add your family if you want to help make dinner one night. What we are doing is each family is taking a night to pay and fix dinner for the three families and then we are all eating together. For example, I am fixing dinner for the three families on Wednesday evening and the three family members will be coming over to my villa on Wednesday night for dinner at my villa. Then another family is doing the same on another evening. So if any of you are interested in joining in and eating dinner with us and will also help pay and cook dinner one night let me know ASAP and we would love to have you join us. The more the merrier. We could have this dinner group go up to five nights and have two families helping on each night.

We are getting very excited for the reunion

The reunion is coming so quickly and everyone at our home is getting excited. I didn't have many respond to the questionnaires so it looks like it is going to be a very relaxing week for visiting. If you were to decide you do want to do things while you are up there feel free to go ahead and plan it as there is so much to do as I have listed many things on the blogspot. For those few families who did respond and want to do activities I have them scheduled and will be sending the schedule very soon.

The day that everything is arranged for is on Tuesday, July 29th in regards to Grandma Mackey's party. We'll be having our family pictures at Inkley's at 9845 S. 700 E. Sandy. Our pictures are scheduled for 11 AM on the 29th so we will need to leave the Marriot around 10:15 AM to get there in time. The pictures are scheduled for two hours, but when one of us is done you are welcome to go over there and leave the studio to my home or Mark and Miriah's home until the party starts.
Immediately after the pictures are over we will be going to the church for the birthday party/ lunch for Grandma which is also still in Sandy.

Also, please be aware that will will be playing games at someones villa each night of the reunion as some expressed an interest in playing games each evening. If you have games you would like to play please bring them to share. If you are interested in playing games please feel free to join us as the more the merrier.

Please continue to look on the blog spot as I will continue to put information on the site if you are interested.
