We narrowed down dates for the reunion to- 1st choice: Sunday, September 2, 2012 (Labor Day weekend) in consideration of out of towners who may be *coming home* for that holiday and travel plans, or- 2nd choice: Saturday, September 8, 2012, depending on availability of the place.
After much deliberation and discussion of the pros and cons regarding several places, we came to the consensus that The Mondale Country Club, outdoor pavilion, starting around 3 or 4 pm to ? would be an optimal choice. It has outdoor "picnic grove" accommodations for a casual affair, the potential to move indoors in case of inclement weather, easy access, decent food, good service, and affordable pricing. Here is a glance at their menu which specifics catering ongrounds for large and small parties. Kevin C is following up with them for date availability and menu/accommodations specifics.

I just realized that Labor Day weekend may be very bad for Cindy Vickers Giffin as she throws an annual Labor Day party that lasts the weekend which is a tradition for the past 30some years. She definitely plans to come to the reunion. Shall we consider 9/8/12 as the optimal date??
I am thinking the same thing about Labor day. Sometimes people have plans. however if you choose the following sunday and it does not start till 4 that is late. Remember out of town people will have to drive back home for work the following day. Is Saturday an option? I really love the idea of september. That way everyone will get their summer vacations in. I intend to do all I can to get there no matter the date, but if it a Sunday and it starts at 4 I will have to leave after an hour or so. Thanks again for all the work
Sorry I just reread the date . Sat the 8th at 4 is perfect for me. Go for it
Nancy the week after Labor Day on the 8th would be Saturday. That way people can travel on Friday, go to the reunion on Saturday and travel on Sunday home.
Hahaha you posted as I was responding. Yes it would be Saturday the 8th.
love the idea of the weekend after Labor Day. We have a giant party at our house on Labor Day weekend that needs to happeen. hope to see you all in Sept.
