Dear Family Member,

Happy New Year!  It’s 2001 and that means we are fast approaching The Atlanta, Jackson-Simmons Family Reunion.  All has been taken care of;  we have rooms available at the beautiful Atlanta Marriott Norcross for the dates of July 12th, 13th and 14th.

THURSDAY:

For family members who arrive early, we will meet in the hotel hospitality room at 8:30 p.m. for some good eating and good conversation!

The morning and afternoon hours are available to get out and see the sights and sounds of Atlanta from Six Flags Theme Park,  Stone Mountain, The Atlanta University Center, The Martin Luther King Historical District and the largest mall in the southeast, The Mall of Georgia…………..just to name a few.

The banquet will begin promptly at 6:30 p.m. and attire is semi-formal.  At 6:45 p.m. the family history will be read.   Dinner will be served at 7:00 p.m.  After dinner the floor will be cleared for The Jackson-Simmons talent show (Please let me know what family members would like to showcase their talent(s) in advance).   Following the talent show, the DJ will take control of the floor with hits from the “Golden Oldies” to the “Hits of Today”.

Our family outing will be held at Jones Bridge Park next to the beautiful Chattahoochee River.  The festivities will start at 11:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.  We will have plenty of food, fun and games.  There is also a large playground for the kids just across from the Pavillion.  Then at 7:30 p.m.,  we will head over to the Brunswick Peachtree Lanes for our family bowling contest.

Our family reunion will come to a close and we will say our farewells.  If  you are interested, you are more than welcome to join my family at Christ The King Baptist Church at the 10:45 a.m. service.

The cost of the family reunion is $67 per adult (18 years of age and older) and $20 per child from 7 to 17 years old.  Children 6 and under are free.
