2011 Family Reunion Book

by 7 Comments

Below is the link to the Photo Book I made from my pictures from the 2011 Sommerer Family Reunion.

welcome?sid=0Actmbhw2ZsmToQ

Click on the orange button that says “View Photo Book” to view the book.

To make the pages bigger, click on “Full Screen” right above the book in the right hand corner.  You also might need to click “View Single Page” to make the pictures big enough to see.

The Inside Front Cover is a BLANK page, so click on the arrows below the page to move left or right.

If you happen to see something with a wrong name on it, you are welcome to complain here, but I probably won’t change it since I already printed my copy of the book.  But I will consider it.

If you would like to order a copy of the book, you can click the orange button that says “Order Photo Book”.  You will be prompted to sign in to Shutterfly.com. then have to click the “Order Photo Book” button again.  If you don’t have a Shutterfly account it is very easy to set one up, just follow the prompts or call your grandchild and ask them to do it for you! From there it is just like ordering anything else off the internet.  (I use Shutterfly a lot and have complete confidence in this website)

Shutterfly is offering free shipping right now if you use the promo code SHIP30 with your order.

Hope you all enjoy the book – Christina

 

Heit’s Point 2011

Sorry, I’m not as good at this as Lloyd.  I can only post the photo, not the mirror image with numbers so you can tell me who everyone is.  But you are all welcome to post who you think is in each row.

If you didn’t see my earlier note, here is the address to order pictures if you would like:   I posted all of the pictures I took to Walmart’s photo center.

The Great Heit’s Point Picture Scan of 2011

by 3 Comments

I sent this out in an email, but I also wanted to get your feedback on anything else that it would be good to bring to archive. Or maybe ideas about how to do it.

I want your old pictures, letters, postcards, recipes, documents and whatever. But I understand if you don’t want to let them out of your site. So put them in an envelope and put your name on the envelope and bring them with you to Heit’s Point.

Sam* and I will scan them and give them right back to you while you wait anxiously over our shoulder. You can even tell us about them and we’ll write that down too. Then we’ll share them with everyone else from the website over the course of the next few months.

I called my dad today (I couldn’t drive down, the roads are closed between here and Missouri) and they already have a list of things to bring to Heit’s Point. If you’ve got a list, add this to it. If you don’t have a list, better start with whatever Becky and Debbie told you to bring, but after that you can add, “An envelope of history” for Lloyd. Remember, if you don’t do this, I’ll probably cry like a little school girl.

This is the perfect way to share things with your family and know that you’ll get them back.

*Sam does not know this yet.

Reunion 2011 (General Notes)

by 9 Comments

This is the first portion of the information for the annual Sommerer Family Reunion.  We hope that you will be able to join us for all or part of the weekend: Friday, July 1st through Sunday, July 3rd. If you have questions after reading this post, please feel free to call Sam & Rachel at (636) 724-1487 or post your question below.

1.) Heit’s Point is hosting camps during the weeks before and after our reunion.  This means that there will not be lodging available on Thursday evening, June 30th (campsites are still available).  It also means that rooms will not be available for check-in until Friday afternoon around 3:00 pm, and need to be available for cleaning by noon on Sunday.  Thanks for your cooperation and understanding.

2.) As in years past, there is a 6% “replacement fee” added to the cost of each reservation.  We will figure this into your bills once you have made reservations.

3.) All reservations should be made through us Sam & Rachel unless you want to stay in a camp facility that is not part of our reserved  Sommerer lodging below.

4.) All reservations should be made as soon as possible and no later than Friday, June 3rd.  On the Lodging Information post is a registration form to assist you in this process.  You will need to have: arrival date, desired lodging location, number of nights staying, number of people staying, and number of people to include for group meals.

5.) Payment is not necessary until the reunion weekend, at which time you will receive a “bill” from us.  Please wait until you have received this bill before paying Heit’s Point.  They will not have the necessary information to take your payment without this “bill”.

6.) There will be a free-will offering to cover the costs of group breakfasts and the meat on Saturday evening.

Update #1: New information just came in and Rachel wanted to pass it along.  If anyone would like to extend their stay at Heit’s Point past the weekend, all of our spots are available on Sunday night and into the following week.  This includes all locations: Spitz Center, Gospel House, Lodge, campsites, and Ascention House (pavillion) Rachel would be happy to help arrange this, just let her know when you make your reservations.

Feel free to post any question or comments below. Then check out the meal information and lodging information.
