Hi Everyone,

We need to know how many people are going to be at the reunion so everyone can plan their meals.  Please comment on this post and tell us how many from your family will be at the reunion.  Thanks.

2011 Reunion Update

Basics

The 2011 Steed Family Reunion is quickly approaching and its time to finalize some details.  We have reserved a campground at the Heber Valley Camp that is owned by the Church.  Our camp is the Esther 4 camp.  Our reservation includes 3 yurts that each sleep 16 people and a covered cooking station complete with propane stoves (propane provided) and refrigerator.  There will be restrooms available including showers.  Please review the camps "rules" page here.  Below are a few important highlights that you will want to know:

• No check-in before 2:00 PM on Thursday Sept. 1st


• Checkout is at 5:00 PM Saturday Sept. 3rd


• No Pets


• No Tents


• If you want to shower bring towels and shower stuff


• Bring your own sleeping pad and bedding.  It is in the mountains so bring enough to keep warm


• Closed toed shoes should be worn.

Meals

We are working with a limited budget this year so we have decided to divide responsibilities for meals among those attending.  Each family will be asked to provide and prepare a meal for everyone.  Please bring any kitchen items you will need to prepare your meal.  Plates, bowls, cups, silverware and napkins will be provided. For this to work, we need to know if you are coming for sure or not, what days you will be there, etc.  Please respond to this blog post to let us know if you are coming and what meal you would like to be in charge of.  The needs are listed below:

• Thursday Dinner


• Friday Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner


• Saturday Breakfast and Lunch


• Snacks

Activities

We were thinking it would be good to do an auction this year.  Let us know what your thoughts are about having one this year in the comments.  Be thinking of things you can auction off.

We have been talking about doing some Minute To Win It games.  If you have any ideas or want to volunteer any other games, crafts or activities leave a comment and let us know.  We are thinking about doing some sort of service project.  If you have any ideas about that let us know.

Hiking trails are another options for good fun entertainment so be prepared to maybe do some kind of little excursion.

We are excited to see everyone and have a fun reunion.  Thanks ahead of time for your support and participation.
