Set the Date
•
To increase the chances that most of your family members will be able to show up to a family
reunion, set the date as far in advance as possible. About a year to a year and a half before
the reunion, gather contact information for family members and send out emails and letters
to get an idea of the best date. Suggest dates that coincide with special family events, like a
grandparent's birthday or wedding anniversary, or on a holiday when people will have more
time off of work and school. Once you have a date that works for most people, send out
letters announcing the date and letting relatives know that a formal invitation and schedule
will follow.
Delegate
•
Delegation is the key to planning a reunion without becoming overwhelmed. As soon as you
have a date, start enlisting responsible family members to help you with decorations, location
scouting, event setup, fundraising, entertainment, activities, lodging and food. Keep costs
down by using the talents and skills of family members. If a cousin is a professional
photographer, ask her to document the events; a musician aunt may have connections that
lead to a discounted rate for a local band. By involving family, you create a sense of
connection and community throughout the group, and you may be surprised at the talents
you unearth.
