Subject: STEVENS FAMILY REUNION Once again it is getting close to the time of the Stevens Family Reunion. I am getting excited at the possibility of seeing many friends and relatives at this year's annual gathering. We will meet again this year at the Hammond Lions Club on Morris Road on the second Saturday in September, September 14, 2002. As those of you who were present last year will recall, we decided to invite and include the Calmes Family in our reunion this year since so many of our Stevens Family are also related to the Calmes Family. We hope by combining both families, our attendance will also pick up. As in the past, registration will begin at 10:00 a. m. Come early and stay as long as you wish. We encourage you to bring the children since there is plenty room outside for fun and games. We are again asking each attending person over 12 years of age to pay $3.00 to defray the cost of renting the Lions Den and other incidentals that may come up in preparations for this year's reunion. Bring a food dish and soft drinks of your choice (no alcoholic beverages, please). Bring pictures, mementos, artifacts, etc. that may be of interest to those attending. There will be a short business meeting, during which time recognition will be given to the oldest person present, the youngest person present, the original family with the most descendants present and the person(s) who have traveled the farthest to attend. A short memorial service will honor those of the family who have passed away since our last reunion. If you know of someone who has passed away during the year, please bring that information so they can be recognized. We would also like to announce any new births in the family again this year. IF YOU KNOW OF ANY OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS WHO MAY NOT RECEIVE THIS NOTICE OR WHO HAVE NOT ATTENDED A PREVIOUS REUNION, PLEASE EXTEND AN INVITATION TO THEM TO ATTEND THIS YEAR. Looking forward to seeing you again this year and let's try to make this the largest and most successful reunion we have had. Sincerely, Doris H. Johnston P. O.
