SATURDAY MORNING ACTIVITY EVENT POLL
The Event Poll will be available until June 15, 2009. Afterwards, we will make our decisions based on the results that we have received. Encourage others to participate in the poll.
The 2009 Family Reunion committee would like to make this reunion a memorable one. We also want you to view this time as not only a reunion, but a real vacation with the family! The items listed in the poll are our options for Saturday morning outings. We will try to incorporate the top three into the reunion weekend. Please take time to review the details of each option, so that you can make an informed decision. All events are free for children under 3.
We had to recreate the event poll, because the way it was initially designed, it was difficult to ascertain which events were getting the most hits. Therefore, if you have already given us your “two cents”, please give it to us again.
