How long
has it been since your family had a reunion?
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 or picnic to multiple day events
where we have fun experiencing the restaurants and attractions of the area
where we held the event. The common
thread that runs through the gathering 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, VISIT ROSWELL GA
has a solution for you. Our staff has
helped countless families plan reunions, working with each group to determine
their unique needs. Some just need help
getting quotes for hotel rooms or with site selection. Others need catering, a source for t-shirts,
memorabilia, or assistance in having the event recorded in audio or video
format. For multi-day events, we can
help secure restaurants, and schedule tours.
Welcome bags and special family buttons are also available.
Here is what one family had to say: “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. 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 only for families. Visit 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.
