Welcome to the valley of the sun

Activity: Arrive in Phoenix
Date: Monday July 19th- Wednesday July 21st 2010
Open to: Everyone

We will begin the family reunion in the Phoenix valley and then head up to Heber together as a family on Wednesday mid-morning. We will be staying at Tenny Ranch in Heber through Saturday.

If you are traveling from out of town, you will be able to stay with family members in town until we go up to Heber. Whoever you stay with will provide meals for you on Tuesday and Wednesday morning to help limit your expenses.

Gather round the table

Activity: Dinner after the temple
Date: Tuesday July 20th 2010
Open to: Adults and Teens

Let's enjoy a great meal together and set the tone for a fantastic week during the reunion! Dinner location to be decided at a later date.

We love to see the temple

Activity: Session in the Mesa Temple
Date: Tuesday July 20th 2010
Open to: Endowed family members

After spending the day playing with the kids, leave them with a sitter and spend time with the adults! Babysitters will be pre-arranged for the kiddos so you don't have to stress about that detail for once. Our goal is to attend the 4:00 Session and then head to dinner after. The temple is about 30 minutes away from where most of the family lives, so you'll need to leave by around 2:45-3:00 in the afternoon to get there and get changed in time for the session. We'd also like to have each person take in a family name, so be working on your genealogy!
