Product Description
Book Description
Whether planning a small annual get-together or a once-in-a-lifetime gathering of hundreds, A Family Affair is a step-by-step guide to the planning, promotion, execution and documentation of the best family reunion ever.
Filled with hundreds of practical and specific instructions, A Family Affair carefully guides the reader through:
- The steps to set up a family reunion (establishing a purpose and budget, contacting relatives, planning the place and time).
- Making people aware of it (by snail mail, e-mail, and phone; dealing with grumpy uncles).
- Running the reunion (kids, food, events, and pictures).
- Following up with memories that participants will treasure (pictures, stories, and more).
The book is arranged in logical step-by-step sequence. There are checklists and forms to simplify the paperwork, websites and other references for further information on topics of special interest, and tips from others who have held successful reunions.

The Gift of New Memories for Your Family,
By Brenda M. DeLalla (Turkey Point Island, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Family Affair: How to Plan and Direct the Best Family Reunion Ever (Paperback)
What a great book this is!!! Many families would love to have a reunion, but are quickly daunted by what appears to be the enormity of such a project.This author not only has organized her own large family reunions, but has beautifully and personally given us a simple to follow road map. With this book you can begin building the strengths and joys a reunion will bring to every family member - and you will be giving the very best present of all - the gift of new memories. Your family deserves the best - and you can give it to them!!!
