Reunion 2009

The Howell Reunion for 2009 is set for June 27Th and 28Th, at Ceta Canyon. We will be sending out letters later so be expecting one soon.

I created this blog for our family members to come to and comment, and let us know if you plan on coming to the reunion or not. For you that are not use to a blog, to comment just click on "comment" at the end of the post and type in your comment. This might be an easier way for us to communicate to each of you. I will post updates on the reunion that you can check on from time to time.

A few things that I need each of you to do for us.

1) Make sure that you communicate to your immediate family members about the reunion. In the past we have sent out letters to everyone in the directory, but as you know we have a very large family. Sometimes these letters get lost in the mail, go to wrong address that sort of thing and we don't know about it. We want to make sure that EVERYONE knows about the reunion. So if you get a letter of read this blog, let your immediate family member know about both, so we don't leave anyone out.

2) We need directory updates: If you have changed your address, phone number, or your name, or have had an addition or subtraction to your family, please let me know. You may mail to me or you may leave your updates here on the comment section of this blog. Please let me know about these changes at least 1 month before the reunion, so that we will have time to get the books printed.

3) Start looking for auction Items: As you know our auction is part of what keeps our reunion going. This enables us to help each of you with the cost of the reunion and that sort of thing. So please start thinking about what you can bring to the auction.

That is all that I can think of right now. We are all looking forward to the reunion. It's really great to be able to get together with everyone. I thank each of you for your support of the reunion, and I know that the 2009 reunion will be the best ever. Notice that my e-mail is also posted on this blog.
