Johnson Family Reunion 2010

Thanks to everyone who responded to the questions that I posed.  In the future will send one or two questions at a time with a suspense date.  After that date, I will go with the majority response.   

     1. Should we have a registration fee?
         Tee:   Why would we need a registration fee?  Have Van and Cassandra come up with anything for dinner as a group? How about church on Sunday? From the articles that I've read on Taste of Chicago, it seems that this event is overpriced and not as good as it used to be.

          Felita:  No, each family should take care of their own expenses. 
          Kenney:  no

     2. Suggestions for reunion colors:
          Tee:  Orange and fuchsia, green and hot pink, black with any eye-popping color, chocolate brown and pink, or chocolate brown and aqua. (These are suggested color schemes for Summer 2011.)
          Felita:  lime green and yellow
          Kenney:  royal blue and lime green

     3. Theme:
          Tee:  The chain may be shorter but it is still strong.
          Felita:  Breezing into the windy city.


     4.  The traveling quilt:
          Tee:  At Steph's.
          Felita:  At one point we said that we'd add a square to the quilt to show what has changed for each family since the previous reunion.  What ever happened to that idea?  Maybe we can do squares but we may need a way to keep track of them.  I do not think that we can add a square to an already completed quilt. n Cassandra, what can you tell us? 


     5.  Skits
          Tee:  No skits. This is just going to be a time to be with each other doing what we want, with whom we want, when we want with the exception of a group dinner and church for those who want to attend. Let's not over plan it.
          Felita:  I would like skits.  Maybe we can do a couple each time each night that we come together for dinner. 
          Kenney:  yes

Please add comments to each question.  I will post final choices NLT August 15, 2010.  All postings on August 15, 2010 will be final.  Please be sure to add your input. 

Flo accepted her assignments as invitation and t-shirt designer.  As a matter of fact, she already has a rough sketch based on a suggestion from DJ.  :)  She said that V-neck tshirt won the vote.  I asked her to see if we can get different style t-shirts since several different people requested one or more of all three styles.
The only ones that I did not hear from were Van and Cassandra - local activities/events. 

I read the checklist and it seems that our t-shirt can serve as a souvenir.  Steph - Do you want to make any other souvenir?

This is all for now.  I will try to figure how to blog and will post you later. ;)
