Reunion Events 2008

Reunion is always slated for even numbered years on the weekend before Father’s Day. Once again we will enjoy a golf tournament, a bowling tournament and of course we will meet down on the farm for the fishing tournament. Watch for your edition of Conversations, the quarterly magazine of Connie Maxwell Children’s Home for the latest details along with Yesterday’s Child. Alumni will need to make their own hotel reservations and a list of area hotels is provided. The Early Bird event has become an alumni favorite on the site of the Connie Maxwell farm – OASIS. The event has grown since its inception and families truly enjoy the fellowship and the great food and entertainment.

The Honor Roll Fund is the account that pays for all our reunion expenses, as well as, any other expenses incurred by our organization. Gifts to this fund have been slow as of late. The fund currently stands at around $5,000. This is a little low with our reunion just months away. Let me encourage you to give to this fund and help share the cost of our upcoming reunion. Our alumni project, as voted on by the Alumni Board, is to renovate the OASIS area, including expanding the kitchen and building a new bathhouse. We are $25,500 away from fulfilling our goal of $80,000. Please use the E-Donation Page to make a donation to the Honor Roll Fund and/or the Project Fund.  Donations are tax deductible!  
Thanks,
Sue Sheriff - Treasurer 
Eric Taylor - President Elect
