Alumni and FriendsMark your Calendar! 4th Annual Reunion Weekend: June 4-6, 2010
For More Info:
Good Tuesday
morning,
The 4th Annual Camp Hanes Alumni Reunion Weekend is shaping up to be the best one yet! Overnight is only $25 a person or $40 a family. Bring your friends, family, swim suit, towels, linens and come spend the day or the weekend. Mark your calendars now, arrange your transportation, and tell all your other alumni friends to come. Trust us, you'll be glad you did! Last year we had alumni from six decades, five states, and two countries (thanks Vanessa for coming all the way from Mexico!). Friday night the current staff entertained at campfire with new songs and skits, and Saturday night we went old school during the alumni campfire with the classics. Saturday brought a hike to the top of Sauratown for some, with land and water activities for all throughout the day.
It has been a couple of weeks since we last talked, so here's the latest
update;
still having trickles of RSVPs coming in for
our R4 weekend(June4th,5th,and6th).
I was really excited to hear from Mary Lankford
that she, her adult kids, and grandchildren are coming !! I am awaiting some
pictures of Val to arrive so we can get the plaques prepared for Saturday's(6/5)
presentation !! Also, I'm in the process of hunting a likeness of Ray so we can
complete the process !
Please make all efforts to show support to
these two ladies, their families,and all who have such a passion for this most
beautiful of places our Lord has provided for us ! All you need do is come join
us, call some of your contemporaries, have them come for the fun and festivities
!!
By the way, if any of you would like to
relate a Ray Mathis or Val Lankford "story" to those of us during our R4
weekend, just let me know !!
