Reunion Time in Roswell

How long has it been since your family had a reunion? Let’s face it, some of your most treasured family members are not getting any younger. A family reunion is a great opportunity to get everyone together to share in the joys that make your family unique.

My family has a tradition of reunions. Ours have run the gamut from gathering for a single meal to multiple day events where we have fun experiencing the restaurants and attractions of the area where the event is held. The common thread that runs through all of the events is getting to know our ever-expanding family and hearing our grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles share their stories.

If this sounds like a great idea but you’re just not sure how to start, Roswell GA has a solution for you. Our Marketing Director has helped countless families plan reunions. She works with each family to determine what unique needs their reunion will have. Some just need help getting quotes for hotel rooms. Others need catering. For multi-day events, she has helped secure restaurants and scheduled tours.

One of those reunions was held this past month. Here’s what the family had to say: “Our 2009 Family Reunion was wonderful! Everyone, from ages 7 to 91, had a great time. As the sole planner for the first family reunion in 20 years, I felt overwhelmed and had no idea where to begin. Your workshop got me started. You were so supportive, holding my hand along the way. Thank you for showing me hotels and menus and staying neutral. Thank you for asking questions that steered me in directions to make the reunion even more successful.”

Reunions aren’t just for families. Roswell has helped plan High School reunions (even for schools not in Roswell), “Girls-Only” Get-Aways for friends who get together every few years, and even activities for spouse and family groups to keep them busy while one family member attends a local convention.
