"Happy Sunday family. There are several of you that still owe a balance. I would greatly appreciate it if you would send your balance asap.
Some of you didn’t register on line so I don’t have a lot of phone numbers or emails.
Or if you paid a deposit, but will not be attending please let me know.

"Good Evening Family,
I hope you all are getting excited for the reunion!! We’re planning to have a dance performance at the beginning of the banquet and believe it would be a great idea to get some family participation. If anyone would like to take part in the choreographed dance, please let me know! I will need your email address, as we will be sending a video clip of the choreography you’ll need to learn.
Also, feel free to comment below or message me should you have any questions."

"Hello Family, just wanted to reach out to everyone. We hope you’ve been getting the emails that’s been going out and these Facebook messages. The reunion is coming up soon. We wanted to reach out and see if there are any questions or concerns about any reunion details. The deadline to get the monies turned in is April 30th. You need to go ahead and book your rooms ASAP (family code is 91P), we ran out once and they added more rooms, but it looks like those are going fast too and may be gone as well. If they run out, you can still book the room at the higher rate and if they add more rooms, you just have to call back with the family code of 91P and you’ll get the family rate. Feel free to pass this message along and reach out to us if you have any questions. Also see the flyers for Reunion activities and schedule. Thanks and much love ." - Kendrick Bourne
