Ukelele Clinic - could be interesting.

At Rammfest 2008 we'll have a ukelele clinic so bring your ukes and have fun.





If you don't have a uke, look for one at your local D.I. I see them all the time and I'll be snapping them up as I see them between then and now.





I currently have three, a couple of good ones and a kinda pretend one. It will work okay for this.





Bring your guitars too, guaranteed to be really great!




I'll post some TABS and stuff that you can work on during the next month.

Genealogy

Hi,

We’d like to do some genealogy at the reunion and if everyone can bring a family group sheet of their immediate family.. complete and verified, it would be great! Please scan and put into PDF files, supporting documentation that you have such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, etc. If you can’t scan, you can call me and I’ll help you.

Example: Arnie and Gigi do a sheet with their names, wedding date, etc. It would include their parents as well as children Taylor, Mat, AJ and Kristo with their pertinent information.

Example: Taylor and Trinity would do a sheet with their names, wedding date, etc. It would include their parents as well as Lottie.

There is a lot of emphasis on researching our past, but I’m finding that much of our current information is not assembled together very well. I’d like to get this up to date and then keep it up each year at reunion time. There is a lot we need to discuss genealogy-wise. We have a real opportunity and great blessings come from this work.

Who's Coming?

We need to get a number as to how many are coming to the reunion. We’ve still got time to plan stuff, but who wants to put stuff together for 30 people and have only 10 show up? Not me! The plan will be way different with more people.

So, here’s the list as of today.

Poppy and Nana, Arnie and Gigi, Taylor, Trinity and Lottie, Mat and April, Thatcher, Luke, Ryan and Meggi, Joseph and Abbi. That’s all who have officially answered and said they’d be there.

Let me know either with an email or a phone call or leave a comment to this post.

Rammfest Revisited 2008

Well, it's less than 2 months away and the excitement is beginning to build. The reunion will be the 3rd, 4th and 5th of July in Hanna, Utah. Same as last year.

Thanks to AJ for the new blog title picture.

As time is passing quickly, I'll be posting more often on this blog and if you have questions or comments, please email me.

For directions to get there, you can refer to this blog. Go to the June entry and click there to find The Excitement of Rammfest07. Directions can be found there to get to Hanna.

I've set this blog up so that it will automatically email each of the family heads. That's Poppy and Nana, Kari and Alan, Gigi and Arnie, Marci and Charles, Steve and Debbie, Mat and Shelly and Julie and Craig. (I'm limited to not enough names to handle everyone). I'll try to email everyone each time we have a change, but it may be better to just subscribe here. At the bottom of this page, you'll see the option to subscribe to the feed.

Menu and activity ideas are welcome. You all know the place and what we can do. Now let's do it.

I'll be bringing the ice cream machine again. Other than that... who knows. It will be fun... and remember

NO SISSIES ALLOWED

Thought I'd take a couple of minutes and post some more pictures. It was great to see all of you again. You know that you can communicate for all to read by adding a comment to the blog.

Here are the rest of my pictures. I hope that those of you who took pictures will share them. Drop me a note.

The Festival Winds Down for Another Year

Wow! Home again after the festivities and mind jarring activities of RAMMFEST 2007. It was great. I'm including, over the next couple of days, some pictures that were snapped at the actual festival. Sad to say that few of the groups actually performed, but all was ... well... spectacular!

Below are my pics of families attending.



Stay tuned tomorrow for "Water Sports... a flow in review"



ok, I couldn't wait... but tomorrow I'll post my other shots. Hey, there were lots of water shots I missed. If you have some, let me know.
