2011 Family Reunion Newsletter

July 2011

Dear Family Members,

Greetings Everyone! The 2011 Shattuck Family Reunion is fast approaching, Friday Sept.2nd through Monday, Sept. 5th this year. The reunion will again be held at the Carson City Christian Campground, 5941 S. Mount Hope Road, Carson City, MI. 48811.

Here are some recommended items to bring: 
**Bring your family, food and come join in on some fun!
**Items for the auction-homemade preferred. Helps support camping expenses.
**Bats, balls and gloves for family softball game.
**Music, instruments, CD’s/tapes for gospel sing and Sunday Service.


--Please, follow campground rules. They are posted by campground in pavilion.

--Upon Arrival Please Register with Ruth Nixon. Please find her ASAP.

--The youth dorm will again be monitored by Melody and Brian Bennett who continue to do an outstanding job!!!
Please sign up youth at youth dorm with Melody and Brian. Do not allow your children to stay in youth dorm unless you have signed them up. Also understand that during the day it is still the parent’s responsibility for their children’s care.

--We Do Not have a preteen dorm for the younger group. If you would like to help with this group please contact Stan Petty at 765-425-2307.

--No rate increase again this year for rooms or camp sites. $10 a night for campers or tents with electric & water sites: $20 a night for water/electric/sewer camp sites: $10 a night per room for the quiet dormitory. We will continue to try and keep these low rates as long as we do well with the offering and the family auction. There is no charge for the youth dorm as long as at least one family member stays in a paid area. A $5 per night fee will apply if no parent or guardian is staying on the grounds.

--The cost for the exclusive use of the campground from Friday evening through Monday is $1,800 again this year. The room and camp site fees cover about ½ of this expense. Of course there are other expenses liability Insurance, paper products, postage and printing of this letter. So again, we are looking for your participation in the auction and offering to cover the remaining costs.

--We are asking that everyone help with cleanup of campgrounds. We are going to ask for volunteers for cleanup of specific areas.

Any topics you want addressed at the family meeting submit in writing and give to current elected officer; 
Stan Petty or Dawn Albring.

Thank You for your support. Come expecting a great time of fun and fellowship!
