5 Reunion Themes To Jumpstart Your Event

If you're like most busy bees you're probably trying to balance family time with work and social commitments. And that means you're probably trying to find time to plan a family reunion in June or July with only a few weeks left to organize a fun and meaningful event. The best way to start is to decide upon a reunion theme. Themes are not only a source of inspiration, they serve as a guide and basis for event activities. 

If you're having difficulty coming up with a meaningful family reunion themes  despair no longer. I recommend a reunion planning book that helps you plan five popular  family reunion themes thousands of families have been using for almost two decades now. The book introduces each theme and carefully guides you through the planning process one theme at a time. Check out the following reunion themes in excerpt:

1. Traditional Family Reunion

2. Genealogy and Homestead Tour

3. Family Fest Reunion

4. Living Legends Reunion

5. Family Reunion Cruise

All you have to do is decide which theme you'll actually use. And it's even easier that it sounds because each theme inspires fun, exciting and meaningful activities. Preview the Five Family Reunion Themes along with associated planners, checklists, itineraries and worksheets while using the hardbound or paperback book "Fimark's Family Reunion Planner Guide Workbook and Keepsake".  I love this book.  Just after the keepsake "Signature of Ownership" page and "Event Details" page it opens up with an excerpt from a family reunion inspired poem "Finding Our Way Back Home, often recited at family reunions.  

As you advance through the book you're introduced to 5 reunion themes and associated planners. Just follow the step by step process and you'll see your event plans come to fruition in no time.  The "Themes" section covers all the steps necessary to plan a meaningful family reunion event and details suggested  theme related activities and banquet dinner programs. 

The book is a keepsake event planning guide. There are several keepsake features including a signature of ownership page, a journal entry section and a family recipe compilation section. Also included are genealogy worksheets.  With this book you'll have your family reunion event planned and organized in no time at all.

New Years Resolution - Family Reunion

If you're like me you can't believe 2023 has come and gone. There are scores of things I accomplished last year. Like the garden pond you see in the photo. When we moved into our new ranch style home last year I immediately started planning our flower beds and organic vegetable gardens. 

The following month I built a garden pond to catch rain water.  Later that year I built a semi-circle driveway and converted the lower floor into a personal art gallery. But there are still many things to do in 2024, including the following. 

1. Plan a 2024 family reunion.

2. Build a larger keepsake hope chest to add more memories.

3. Write a family history journal

4. Complete fire pit construction.

5. Build decking around the fire pit.

A great way to get things done in 2024 is to make a New Year's resolution list with your priorities near the top of the list. As you can see, I'm gearing up for many memorable gatherings this spring and summer. So what will you put on the top of your list? My 2024 priority is planning a family reunion attended by my mother and father and their three generations of progeny. 

Since we are the current caretakers of the new family homestead here in PA and had our DNA ancestry processed, our reunion theme centers on genealogy, and we'll have our family gathering right here at the new homestead. 

There is a wonderful family reunion theme called "Genealogy and Homestead Tour" that includes everything you need to know to throw a memorable family reunion on a home town property.  It is one of the five theme planners included in the reunion planner book "Fimark's Family Reunion Planner".

Theme: "'Genealogy and Homestead Tour' - Learn the beginnings of your roots while on tour from the deep south to the industrial north. Chart the course and travel to places that will answer questions about your family history. Visit a cemetery or grave site. Tour an historic home. Visit a restaurant. Tour the homestead town as it was in the past, and compare to what it is currently."

The book includes themed itineraries, worksheets with suggested activities, entertaining dinner/luncheon program, planning tips, slogans, logo ideas and more.
