Family Dues and Pre hotel information

The statements placed on this blog were from the letter mailed out from our Executive Director. Some of the information will still need to be voted on by the Family members. These are just preliminary suggestions.

The dues per family is $250. All children over 21 and not in college, will be considered a separate family and will be expected to pay their own dues.

Senior Citizens are still paying $100.00

Those families that can do more please do.
When the reunion is held in Charleston, we are proposing a supplement of 10% - 20 % for each room from the ones who reside in Charleston. This will take the burden off some of the families that are traveling from out of town to attend the reunion. This is to ensure everyone is paying their part by paying their dues.

Now, you may say that some of the family members won't really need assistance. Well, that may be true, but still it is their option as to whether or not they want to accept this assistance. You just pay your dues so we have the money we need in the treasury.

If we end this year with an excess, then it will go toward the next years events.

Executive Team of Directors.
