How To Speed Plan A June Family Reunion

You've heard of speed art? Featured on YouTube, speed art is quickly becoming the latest craze among graphic artists who create breathtaking photo realistic pictures fit for Academy Award winning movies. You've also heard of speed dating, speed chess, speed impersonations and speed reading. But have you heard of speed planning?

Speed Planing And Preparation

Speed planning involves the use of a stop watch set to 15 minutes or so and a list of key planning questions required to brain storm ideas and determine how to implement them. Speed planning an event is similar but with the added feature of preparing the event within a relatively short period of time. In this case eight weeks or so.

Last month we introduced how to speed plan a May Family reunion with only two months to prepare. Many of our readers loved the idea and have been following through with much success. Now with the month of April upon us it's time to speed plan a June family reunion. Answer these key speed planning questions to get your June reunion event up and running.

Speed Plan A Family Reunion

What venue will you use?
What event theme would you consider appropriate?

On what day and time should you schedule the event?
What needs to be done?
Who need to get involved?
What are the projected costs and fees associated with the event?
When and how should the event be announced?

How To Speed Plan A Spring Vacation Family Reunion

So you want to plan a Spring Vacation family reunion but don't know where to start or if you even have enough time to pull it off? Be assured, many have speed planned spring vacation family reunions as early as the first week of March and enjoyed a successful event in April, May and early June. Just keep it simple and follow these speed planning instructions.

Consult the community events calendar to find out what festivals, concerts and tours are featured during the month of your event. After discussing this with the family set the event date around the special events scheduled.


1.  Determine your theme, mission and slogan. Get theme and slogan ideas when downloading the family reunion planning package. Get family reunion t-shirt design ideas at http://www.zazzle.com/zzibcnet*.

2. Contact the family and extended family to vote on a date, activities and events you'd like to enjoy on your reunion vacation.  

3. Write a list of all activities planned.  A family reunion planning checklist with worksheets are ideal for keeping up with tasks needing to be completed during the planning process. 

5. Reserve a hotel with lobby, park area or recreation center for the initial meet and greet. Consult local municipality officials for available grounds or hold the event at a relatives home.   (*See the timeline checklist in the Family Reunion Planner)

6. Send all family members directions  to the event rendezvous via email, event app or post mail. A map to the location would be helpful.

7. Get help wrapping up your final tasks. No need to do it all yourself. Invite a couple of extra hands over and put in a long night completing tasks. Download a family reunion planning checklist with worksheets. Delegate department heads and make sure everyone has what they need including materials and supplies to complete the assigned task.

8. Don't forget to give yourself a day off before and after the big event.
