> Anyone got any great ideas to share on organising a family reunion? Is a whole week-end too long for a big one? What kind of >activities can we have? How can the poor old organiser cut costs and get everyone else enthused? Help! Next year it will be 150 years since our HOLMES ancestor hit these shores and Muggins feels that she should organise something special. Estimating about 100 people at this stage, and thinking of Hamilton as the most central spot to where they settled. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Of course, you could always have a look at the DPS website! Though the page on organizing a reunion is really aimed at a one day event.......it "may" give you an idea or two. cheers, Leone http://home.vicnet.net.au/~dpsoc/reunion.htm
