The Family Reunion Committee
April 20, 2011
If you are planning a small reunion (25 people or less?), then it can be one person. You. If itโs bigger, then make the committee bigger. The committee should create a planning binder with lists of subcommittees, guests, assignments, resources, financial status, and anything else that seems important at the time. Here is a family reunion checklist to help get you started.
Family Reunion Committee Chairperson
Every organization has to have a leader, and the family reunion committee is no exception. The committee chairperson (chairperson is politically correct talk for “can be a man or woman”) is responsible for:
โข Scheduling committee meetings and notifying the members of those meetings
โข Presiding over meetings and maintaining the peace
โข Making a list of volunteers (or forced volunteers) and their job assignments
โข Keeping a calendar of finished tasks and unfinished business
โข Motivating people to follow through (candy, food, money, fame, guilt…)
It is good if the committee chairperson is someone that everyone respects and will listen to. If nobody in your family matches that description, select someone that everyone is afraid of (and will listen to).
Family Reunion Subcommittees
Unless you want to do all the work yourself (call me lazy, but I donโt), you will find it necessary to assign subcommittees to handle various aspects of the reunion. Subcommittees can be a single person as well, for small reunions, but if not, each should have a chairperson of its own to report back. You know, just in case theyโre slacking off and not getting the job done, the chairperson overall can crack down on them. Thatโs Mister Spiffyโs favorite part of being overall chairperson of any reunion.

Manila residents and tourists spending a vacation in Philippines prefer to travel out of town from Manila to the north to visit Subic, Pampanga, Angeles City and Clark Philippines. While many areas of the Philippines are plagued by crime and security concerns, Clark continues to impress the travel and tourism observers with its immaculately low crime records. Other features of Clark that attract family tourists and those visitors that are health sensitive include low pollution, peace and quiet ambiance and a most welcome absence of traffic congestion.
Many are selling off their assets to start a new life in Philippines, taking advantage of the standard-of-living differential to start a business or just enjoy living in a tropical country. With careful planning, the move to Philippines can work out brilliantly or it can be a painful mistake.
