First order of business: We need a little more information about your plans for the 4th of July weekend before we can setup meals and schedules and such. So before you read any further, click this link and fill out this short survey.
Christina has been hard at work getting the information together for the 2016 reunion. We will continue to work so that the oldest members of the family can have rooms in the Spitz Center if they want them.
Older members of the family, you can have whoever you want stay with you in your room. Naturally, that means that The Twelve get first pick of the rooms (with the exception that Cousin Johnny is actually older than my dad). And after that, cousins from oldest to youngest. Because there’s a chance that not everyone who wants a room in the Spitz Center will get one, We would like to know who would like a room in the Spitz Center by May 6 (you have a week to decide). Then we will sort the requests by age and if anyone who wanted a room in the Spitz Center didn’t get one, they can specify a different lodging option when everyone else does on May 6.
As far as other lodging goes, we will make every attempt to get you into the lodging you had last year (if you want). In fact, if you get your reservation in by May 13, we will make sure of it (unless it is a room in the Spitz Center taken by an old codger). The only exception to that might be when you have just a couple of people and request lodging that will sleep 18. Space is getting just a little too tight for us to always be able to do that.
Other things to note:
- On the reservation page, we’re once again asking for information from people who are coming to the reunion, but not staying at Heit’s Point, so that we can get a more accurate head count for meals. You can make reservations starting April 30 for the Spitz Center and May 6 for everywhere else.
- The meal page has been expanded with additional information.
- The old general information page and the frequently asked questions page have been combined into a new and improved General Information page.
- Also worth noting is that we are a little up in the air about meals and the schedule. Once you complete the survey, we will know what to do. You can read about the times for other activities on the Schedule page.
- You can get to the Family Reunion Information from the pictures on the right or from the “Get Togethers” menu above.
As always, if you have any questions, comments or suggestions you can use the comment area at the bottom of any of these pages to make your feelings known. If you’re interested, you might want to take a look at the planning post for the 2016 reunion.
