Reunion Pictures

There have been pictures posted in the family photo album by Brenda and Angela. Check it out by clicking on the link on the right column.

We want to thank everyone who came to the reunion and made it a memorable experience. If you have a family blog of your own we'd like to link to it. Leave a message with the address of your blog and we'll add it to the list! We'd love to keep in touch with everyone all year long.

Yes, there will be an auction!

I was looking over the invitation and realized that I forgot to mention that we will be doing bingo, the horseshoe tournament, and having the auction. So, don't forget to bring an item to donate for the auction.

I've received a few RSVP's, but we'd really like to get a count of who's coming so we can plan some fun activities. Leave a comment right here on this post if it's easier for you. Hope to see you all there.

Arrr, Matey!!

Ahoy! Ye Clark Family sea dogs are in for a surprise. Argh, the treasure’s been found and it’s time to share the booty with other worthy souls ready to challenge the seven seas. Meet ye together at the Spanish Fork River Park from July 24th-27th to join in the excursion.

Along the way yer going to have treasures and treats while we plunder the shores. Thursday, July 24th will be the day to anchor yer ship. Yer going to have to find grub on your own.

Friday, July 25th will start with a breakfast made by yer captain and me hearties. Dinner grub will be a feast with yer own meat to grill. Bring a salad or side for fellow pirates to pillage.

On Saturday, July 26th yer going to have breakfast on the deck again. It’s also the day for the main voyage. Be there shipshape with yer potluck dish at 2:00pm. The grub will be traditional deep fried chicken and potatoes.

Sunday, July 27th we’ll weigh anchor and leave port after another breakfast on deck.

The Cap’n requests to all take turns scrubbing the deck so we don’t end up with the scurvy! Sign up for your turn or be prepared to walk the plank.

Yer little ones are going to have fun. The treasure hunt will be Friday and we’ll be diggin’ for gold on Saturday. There will be lots of other activities for them to do too.

From the crow’s nest I see that yer all headed this way! Ye better be, because dead men tell no tales.

Be a mate and reply before the date:

Family Reunion 2008

The family reunion is set for July 24th to July 26th. It will be in the same place as last years, Spanish Fork River Park.
Sorry it is the weekend of the 24, but it was the only time we could get the place. Spreed the word.
