What's Your Plans!

Hello Cousins,
At this time we would likt to update you on the progress of finalizing the reunion registration fee.  We are working on obtaining a menu cost for the activities that we have planned.  As soon as we have that estimation, information will be posted on the blog page.  We are highly recommending the purchase of the activity package also.  It is reasonable priced and allows you to attend all of the attractions at the resort.  In addition to those attractions, members that stay at the resort will have free access to lots of other activities (i.e. white sand beach, face painting for kids, musics performers and more). 

If you are planning to attend, please block your room.  ONLY 75 rooms have been reserved.  If we need additional rooms, we must obtain them as soon as possible.  Reunion packages will be mailed out January 2011.  If you have changed your e-mail address or mailing address within the last two years, please send your new information to deborah.wilkes@att.net.
Now sign on and let me know your intentions, your travel plans and how many people are coming with you by making a comment on the blog page.
