The Year Ahead – June 22

In the January/February 2024 issue of Family Tree Magazine, they have introduced The Year Ahead, 366 genealogy tips will make 2024 your best research year yet by Lisa A Alzo. Lisa mapped out a day-by-day research plan.

June 22 – Check out the tips and resources at Reunion magazine <www.reunionsmag.com> If you help plan the annual family reunion.

I have only been involved in two reunion planning in my life. One was a family reunion and the other was for my Senior Girl Scout Troop. 

Tips that I have learned: Start early, give yourself at least a year or more, this way you can get a pre-notification out to people and perhaps recruit others to help. Create a timeline of important deadlines you will want to meet to stay on track. 

Some other tips I found on the Reunion website: Carefully chose your location. You want a place that is convenient,  fits into your budget and allows enough room for everyone. Have a backup plan, if having it at a park, what will you do if it rains? Does the park offer indoor or sheltered areas.

Remember to have fun and Just do Genealogy!
