FamilyLobby.com (http://www.familylobby.com), a safe and private online gathering place for families, wants Americans to make the most of their family reunions this summer. For those planning to attend reunions during the second half of the summer, those who have already attended a family reunion and even those who are wondering how they can still organize a reunion before school starts back up, FamilyLobby.com offers ten helpful tips for maximizing your family reunion this year.
1) Share the fun. Spread organizational duties between several family members, and consider creating committees for activities.
2) Save time and money by using an online tool to help you plan and communicate reunion details.
3) Use an e-newsletter to quickly send out changes, ask for headcounts and more.
4) Consider creating a fun auction, with items donated by family members, in order to raise money to cover any costs for food and/or space rental.
5) Pre-designate photography and video duties.
6) On the big day, bring photos with you of family members who could not attend.
7) On the big day, have family members show their personality in a fashion show or cook-off.
8) HAVE FUN and enjoy!
9) After the reunion, share photos, videos, recipes, address lists and more.
10) Keep in touch until the next family reunion, via mail, email or a private online gathering place.
