We'll spell out firm details once we get closer to July, but for now, we can
say that the following will be included:

handout.
Friday:
 | Check-in at Best Western Metro North motel in Ankeny. 40 rooms have been
reserved for the "McAndrew Reunion" until June 12 -- 20 at poolside, and 20
non-poolside. |
 | Hospitality Room. Gather Friday afternoon and evening for greeting each
other. Snacks and beverages available, and the silent auction will gradually
build here. Maps, schedules,
etc., will be available. |
 | Sign up Friday for the golf outing Saturday morning. Define your
foursomes yourself. |
 | Bedtime for those who judge sleep is wise. |
Saturday:
 | Golf outing begins early at Woodland Hills Golf
Course, approximately
5.1 miles south from the motel. |
 | Picnic, beginning at noon at Cherry Glen shelter # 5, Saylorville Lake, about
5.6 miles
west of the motel. Food and beverages, games and stories. Playground
equipment for kids. Modern restrooms close. |
 | Reunion photographs. Beginning at noon we'll do photographs by
our professional photographer, Chris Onsrud. Be sure to wear your
"colors." In addition to the full group shot, design your own
family groups as you choose. The
photos will be available over the Internet. |
 | Family Worship: You are invited to join the regular mass at Our Lady's
Immaculate Heart Catholic Church in Ankeny, 5:00 p.m., about 1/2 mile west
of the motel. Attire is casual, so it will be okay to come from the picnic
to the church (unless you judge that the world should only see you after you
have a shower -- that's your call). |
 | Bidding on silent auction items ends with the beginning of the talent show. |
 | The BIG McAndrew Talent Show - 2009: Gather in the hospitality room for
this tradition. It doesn't get much better than this. Bring your cameras.
Bring your act. BE THERE, OR BE SQUARE! Winners of the silent auction will be
announced. |
 | Bedtime, except for those who just can't bring themselves to quit ... more than one of the clan fall into this category ... life is
just too good to give up that easy. |
Sunday:
 | Sunday brunch, a buffet bonanza in the hospitality room ($7.99/adult=12yrs
and older; $3.99/children). It's the joyous conclusion of the reunion, with voting on
plans for the next reunion. |
 | Sad farewells, and check-out of motel. |
