RED HOT NEWS--THE BERGLOFF FAMILY REUNION

Save The Date
August 6 through August 9, 2008
The much talked about family reunion is finally going to happen. Our location for the party is at Camp Cascade--just over an hour outside of Boise. I know many of you will be traveling from long distances some with babies and small children. My hope is that your families can travel to Boise and either come in a few days prior to the reunion or stay for a few days after so it's not all travel time and so everyone can spend as much time together as possible. There is still lots of planning to do and I will need to have a head count of all those who are planning to come. Just a bit of info about Camp Cascade. I first visited the camp with our Stakes annual Laural retreat.
It has a large lodge and kitchen area-- plenty big enough for everyone to eat, visit, play games, watch movies etc. There are also game areas outside--volley ball, base ball etc. There are cabins that sleep 7 and a few cabins that have bathrooms. Overall I was so impressed with how clean it was and how beautiful and peaceful it was. The costs seem to be reasonable and I am hoping everyone has plenty of time to budget between now and next Aug. The camp is located on the high end of a reservoir--although in Aug. the water levels may not be what we would like --we may have to have water sports as the other end--approx. 6 miles. The fees are $20 per family per night with a $10 cabin charge (the $10 cabins do not include a bathroom--however the bathrooms that I saw were all very clean) meals are prepared at a cost of $5 per meal per adult and $2.50 for anyone 5 and under. I will talk more about food and menus over the next few months. There is also an additional Camp fee charge of $200 per night --this covers the cost of the kitchen, lodge and having our food prepared. It works out to only a few more dollars per person depending on how many people attend. For those of you who have attended other Bergloff family reunions--this facility is much. much nicer. We've talked about having a family blog to keep everyone informed and to have a place for everyone to post pictures--we're open to all suggestions. More info and pics to come.
Mark your calendars now-you won't want to miss the fun!
